Known as The Game for the Whole Brain, Cranium is a party board game of 4-16 people. It involves a variety of activities and requires a number of skills from the players. It is created by Whit Alexander and Richard Tait and published in 1998. The game is played by dividing the players from two to four teams where each team has a mover which is initially set-up on the Planet Cranium start space and the order of the game starts with the player whose birthday is coming up and goes around to the next team in a counterclockwise manner. To be declared the ultimate winner, each four categories should be won by the team which are Star performer where players sing, hum a song, impersonate celebrities or act our clues; words should be spelled, unscrambled, and guessed in Word Worm; correctly answer trivia questions in Data Head; and drawing and sculpting of clues is done in creative cat.
Smart Deduction Board Games
Deductive board games entail making out judgments out of a given premise and logical thinking of game players. To win the game, the main mechanic is using deductive reasoning. Two broad categories which fall under deductive board games include abstract deductive games which are non-themed and investigation deductive games where players portray characters. The mastermind, an abstract deductive game, is played by two which one makes the code while the other breaks it. The player who sets the code arranges the pegs on the game board in a certain pattern and the other player has to make an exact guess of the pattern used. Another is an investigation game called the Cluedo, which players depict a certain character, has a murder crime scene setting and players try to find out who the suspect of the crime is. Other deduction board games include the Mystery Mansion, Coda and Black Box.
The Stirring Dungeon Board Game
There are board games that allow individual player to portray or guide a special character that increases its abilities and characteristics or even gain gears as the game continues like the adventure board games. Released in 1975, the Dungeon created by S. Schwab, David R. Megarry, Steve Winter, and Gary Gygax was the pioneer in adventure board games. The game designed for two to four players consists of a rulebook, four colored Parcheesi-style playing pieces (white, blue, green, and red). Included in the game which fascinates players is a range of monster and treasure cards which is colored black and white on the front and at the back are color coded representing the different six increasing dungeon levels: gold for first, orange for second, red for third, magenta for fourth, green for fifth, and blue for sixth. Every players objective is to accumulate the most treasures and conquer the monster to be the first to return to the dungeon entrance. There have been later versions like the Dungeon and Dragons.
Participating in Two Player Board Games
There are board games that are made exclusively for two individuals to play. These board games are suitably created for playing together with your wife, friend, or companion. One of these games is the Abalone, which is a strategy game played using fourteen marbles for each player and set in a hexagonal board with 61 spaces. The games objective is to shove the opponents marbles out of the board. Another game is the Chinese Checker with a goal of moving the pieces to the opposite side where the player started, and is played on a six-pointed star shaped board. A game set on an 8 by 8 game board, the Othello, aims to preserve the most number of pieces in the entire game and the player with the most number of pieces left is deemed winner. Other picks of two player board games are Obsession, Backgammon, Checkers, Cross and Circle, Stratego, Downfall, Plateau, Kamisado, and Suguroku.
