My 8 year old son like most boys his age loves Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) and Justice League Super Heroes so when I was given the opportunity to review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Flying Attack Board Game & Justice League Axis of Villains Strategy Game from Wonder Forge I was excited.
The TMNT game requires some assembly and setup and because with it being a balance game it can be difficult for smaller kids so you will need to provide some help. There are two ways to play this game, you can be the TMNT and fight to stop Shredder and his clan from reaching the top of the tower. Or you can play as Shredder working with his team of ninjas to get to the top of the tower, the teetering tower swings back and forth but always stays balanced. This game is for ages 5+ and 2-5 players and can be purchased at Amazon
and other National retailers.
The Justice League Axis of Villains Strategy Game is packaged nicely with resealable bags for all of the pieces which make it really nice to cleanup when you are done and can feel confident you will have all of the pieces for next time. The Justice League characters that are included are Batman, Green Lantern, Superman and The Flash. It is kind of disappointing that only 4 of the JL characters are included, adding more characters would expand the game play quite a bit. I like that this game encourages teamwork as you and the other players work together to destroy the villains before they blow up the satellite. This game was a little hard to grasp at first for my 8 year old and even my husband. The instructions seem to leave out key points needed to proceed through the game, but by the time they finished the first game that had it down pretty well. This game is for ages 8+ and 2-4 players and can be purchased at Amazon
and other National retailers.
Pick one of these games up for your kids this holiday season or go ahead and grab one to play on Christmas Eve before the kids go to bed. Be sure to check out Wonder Forge Games on facebook and twitter.
