Me and my family played The Terrific Tuatara Trail game. I chose this game because it is a good game to play as it is full of New Zealand trivia questions.
Here are the brief rules of play for this game. Each player has a New Zealand animal / insect token. Their objective is to get the highest score out of everyone. You have to answer New Zealand questions based on timeline, geography and facts. Each correct answer gives you a tuatara body part.
You need 4 Tuataras made up of 3 body parts each. Once you have all these, the game stops and everyone turns over the body parts to reveal insects. Each insect is worth points (Weta would give you 2 points a Dung Beetle and Millipede gives you one point each). Whoever has the most wins the game. My Sister won the game but I am pretty sure she cheated!
Hi Liam,
ReplyDeleteGreat blog post.
It's really good to see that you are playing different board games with your family, it's a great way to learn and spend time together.
I am quite sure Sam doesn't cheat, she's just getting pretty good at board games and at counting - she beats me at most games too - but I'm pretty sure that makes us all want to do better.
