Holiday Gift Guide- The Games Bible Book by Leigh Anderson Review & Giveaway






Over 300 Games- The Rules, The Gear, The Strategies

By Leigh Anderson

Pages 390


ABOUT THE GAMES BIBLE
(from the Workman website)

"Staying in is the new going out. Media like The New York Times and ABC News report a return to old-fashioned, low-cost game night, and retailers have seen sales of games rise 20 percent in the last year. Now comes The Ultimate Gamebook for Grown-ups, an extraordinary collection of more than 300 games for friends and family. Here are games for two and games for a group. Parlor games and party games. Indoor games and outdoor games. Quick games to break the ice and afternoon-long games for a whole family reunion. Guessing games, card games, trivia games, strategy games. Games for math geeks and games for word freaks, games for left-brainers and games for right-brainers, and silly games where it’s best to shut off the brain altogether."


ABOUT THE AUTHOR
(from the Workman website)

"Leigh Anderson, a writer who grew up playing Kick the Can and SPUD and spent years playing and mastering hundreds of games and out-Hoyling Hoyle to become one of the world’s leading game experts, has written the book that belongs in every home, apartment, vacation house, summer cottage, dorm room, and community center. The Ultimate Gamebook for Grown-ups is a jam-packed, 448-page cornucopia of games, all organized by type."


     Workman was kind to send me a review copy of The Game Bible! This book is a nice sized book with pages and pages full of games. I'm amazed at how many games are inside of this book! It's amazing that there are over 300 different games inside of this book! This book contains 17 different chapters inside this book helping sort out the games in categories!

The chapter's inside this book include:

- Putting the Fun Back Into Parties
- Icebreakers
- Guessing Games
- Indoor Frolics
- Conversation Games
- Literary and Word Games
- Right-Brain Games
- Games of General Cleverness
- Victorian Parlor Games
- Holiday Games
- Games For Gamblers and Bluffers
- Trivia Games
- A Card Game Refresher
- Brainy Games For Two
- Games for a Weekend Away
- Impromptu Games
- Outdoor Games
- Lawn Games

     As you can see, this book includes many kinds of different games! This book has such a variety of games! This book is a must have for family game night! You will never get bored with games again because you will have a huge variety to play! Kid's will have fun picking games to play out of this book. You could even write down a few games on paper and put them in a hat. Kid's would think it was fun to choose a game to play out of a hat.

    This book is a great book for the people on a tight budget or have little to no income like me! This game book will bring fun and laughter into your life where you can stay home and save money!

     I look forward to playing games out of this book this holiday season! I recommend this book to you! Pick up a copy for your Christmas parties or pick up one to give someone for a gift! This book would make a great present for the game lover in your life!
