Review: Hummingbirds

Review: Hummingbirds

In hummingbirds, designed by Jason Tremblay and published by The OP, you and your opponents take on the roles of hummingbirds. You fly around getting nectar from flowers. The catch is, the nectar are the sand timers, you can’t see them, and the longer ones are worth more points. Leave the flower too early, no points. Stay too long and your bird is not being utilized to its best ability. Grab your fellow birders, and let’s see if this sand timer game is worth playing!

Chopper Strike

There are so many great looking games from the 70’s and 80’s. Games that were probably too expensive at the time. Games that just had table presence to spare. Sub Search was one such game. Edward and I loved that game. It has led us to search out other games in that realm. Chopper Strike was our next purchase. Chopper Strike has a tag line on the box that reads: “The Two-Level land/air Battle Game.” And that was precisely what drew us to the game: the two-level aspect. Since the game came out i
