SNAP Review – Word Fluxx
Looney Labs did some fun and clever things with how they want you to put your words together for success in this game.

Flutter is a beautiful, thematic game. But the petal tracking and some of the complexities set the experience back. It’s a fun puzzle, but I would wait to bring it to the table until the kids are a little older and have better fine motor control.

I had picked up this game because I heard great things about it – and the new version fixes some small issues with the first edition. Is it worth it?

SNAP Review – Streamer Standoff
We’d recommend Streamer Standoff for teens and young adults who are REALLY into streaming culture. Otherwise, save your subs for something less standoff-ish.

I was surprised and impressed at how simple this game was while being simultaneously incredibly fun to play. This is the kind of game that you lose and then it’s pretty easy to convince yourself you can win the next go ’round.
