Talicor Aristoplay Games Review and Giveaway!!







Aristoplay sent me the Left Behind Board Game for review. My sisters enjoy the Left Behind series so they were really excited about this. Here are some pictures...

Here is a little bit about the game...

"

Based on the movie and like the Best Seller, this game has two exciting parts. The first is prior to the Rapture and the second is after the Rapture. It is the classic contest between good and evil. In the first part of the game, the players task is to answer questions correctly and earn and save Left Behind Tokens. These tokens are of great value in the second part of the game (which starts without warning). Carpathia enters the game and causes individual players to band together forming the Tribulation Force. From this moment on, the goal is to work together to defeat Carpathia or face elimination.

Ages: 10 to Adult, 2 to 6 Players"

About Talicor / Aristoplay

About Talicor / Aristoplay

For over two decades, two small companies have been independently making and selling high quality board games, card games and puzzles that families will treasure for years. While developing on their own, Talicor and Aristoplay have both come to share the philosophy that games should provide rich experiences beyond the first play. Now these two like-minded companies have merged to become not only bigger but better as well!

What does this mean for you? First, with just one website, or one call to (800) 433-GAME begin_of_the_skype_highlighting (800) 433-GAME end_of_the_skype_highlighting, you can order from the complete line of both companies. All of the same great products will be available to you, plus we are always introducing new ones. We think that’s a good change. What wont change, however, is the essence of both lines of products.

For 25 years Aristoplay has developed games that teach you something while you have fun at the same time. For example, the Buzz Off game for pre-schools presents color-matching with a twist. Monkey in the Middle provides some monkey mayhem while encouraging little ones to practice counting. And the brand new MathAnimals game couples cute animal shaped numbers with addition, subtraction and multiplication problems. Another trademark of most Aristoplay games is that they are rich in content and have multiple levels that allow all members of a family to enjoy playing the games together at levels suitable for them. This thoughtful approach is why Aristoplay games are continually invited into the classroom and the home.

Learning through play doesn’t have to be just for kids. For over 30 years, Talicor has offered a wide variety of board and card games designed to promote wonderful family and get-together time. The Ungame encourages sharing and understanding, self-discovery, listening skills and more – all in one fun game! SnapShots Across America is the ultimate vacation fantasy game which brings everyone in the family together to learn about US geography and top tourist attractions in a fun yet educational way. And there is FraperDeck, a unique card game that is designed to encourage children to learn either multiplication skills or the relationship between fractions, decimals and percents by incorporating familiar card games such as war or crazy eights.

So we invite you to look though this bigger than ever selection of great board games, card games and puzzles. Play games, have fun, learn things!"


"Special Award News! Three of games in the Talicor Line just recieved awards from Creative Child Magazine:

2010 Game of the Year Award "African Adventure Playzzle"

2010 Preferred Choice Award "Journy on the Amazon Playzzle"

2010 Preferred Choice Award "Stranded"--Also recently mentioned in the Chicago Tribune!

All Three of these Games are Available now from Talicor!"


This is a fun game. We were all trying to aim Carpathia away from other players. Some of the cards do not really need to be in there though. Some like "what teacher did you have a crush on?", etc. You also get points for lying and making other players think you are telling the truth.

Other then that we really enjoyed the game!
