Corinth Game Review

This is my latest review for the Asmodee UK Blogger Board Game Club and we have received this roll-and-write Corinth game. This is a strategy board game where players take the role of traders from all corners of the Mediterranean Sea to Corinth to sell their goods during 4th century BCE. The Persian carpets, Cretan olive oil, Roman grapes, and Egyptian spices are highly prized by traders.

Monopoly Fortnite Review

Last month, Monopoly Fortnite was revealed as one of the 12 ultimate toys of 2018 by the DreamToys organisation! This game is inspired by the popular Fortnite video game and now it is not about what players own; it is about how long they can survive in this Monopoly game! To win, you have to be the last man standing, just like the game!

Although this game is suitable for aged 13 and above, both of my children were super keen to play it! Mr K is a big Fortnite fan and he is loving this! This board game is suitable for two to seven players and it features well-known locations as properties, and players aim to earn Health Point chips instead of Monopoly money to stay in the game!
