Who we areJustin and Oscar are a father and son duo who love to play board games and are excited to share what they have learned with you through the Board with Family Games podcast.
Our StoryOur family loves to play board games. We started playing when Oscar was young and were quickly bored by the traditional offerings and "kid" versions. Around the age of 7, we started trying new games and learned that we are in a golden age of board games with more new offerings each week than we can possibly play! We play games weekly, and wanted to help other families find exciting new games to try. Oscar and I are excited to share our love of games with you!
This podcast is for those parents who have hidden "The Game of Life" so that their kids can't ask to play it anymore. It is for families who want to find an opportunity to do something together without a screen, and still have fun! We hope that you will join to learn about games you may never have heard of, or thought your child was too young to try. Our "reviews" are aimed at sharing the games we already play and helping you understand how they will work within your family so that the whole family is having fun together! SponsorsCycles is a fast-paced strategy card game for ages 8+ based on the circle of life. To win, players must collect three complete life cycles. Along the way you can steal cycles and use special powers associated with each organism!

Their philosophy is to design STEM games based on fun mechanics that allow players to learn without realizing it. Originally co-founded in 2015 by a neurobiologist (Catherine Croft, Ph.D.) and civil engineer (Jon Nardolilli) who transitioned to careers in education, Catlilli has since grown into a small team of people who pour their hearts into mission-based game design. www.catlilli.com Back now on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/croft/cycles-a-strategy-card-game-about-the-circle-of-life Demo version on Tabletop Simulator: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2567128363 |
