Children's Game

Get your plastic spears ready to hunt dinos!

You'll have to catch dinos that are showed on the chief menu of the day. But every player will do it at the same time, so you'll have to be quick and clever to hit n' catch the right dino card with your personal plastic arrow. The slowest player must give his dino card back...

When you have collected enough dino cards to fill the menu, you shout "Oooga", take the menu card and draws another one.

At the end of the game, the player with the most dinos on his menu cards wins.

In the dice-rolling game Pizza Party, each of the two players rolls five dice over and over again at the same time, trying to match their dice to the toppings on the pizza slice card they drew. As soon as dice match, you can place them on the appropriate toppings on the card, and as soon as all the ingredients are supplied, you grab another card and start rolling once again. Whoever first creates an entire pizza pie of six slices wins!

Four armies of alien micro-monstrosities clash in a challenge to the last jump!

In Micro Monsters, four races of horribly cute aliens – Autogators, Bigbears, Finbacks, and Turboturtles – face off, with each race wanting to close the rival monsters' dimensional gates. Using dexterity-based game play similar to that in MicroMutants and X-Bugs – and more commonly seen in Tiddly Winks – players in Micro Monsters "shoot" their monster tokens across the playing area by pressing on one edge of them with a "monster shooter" to send them flying. Land on an opponent, even with the tiniest bit of your monster, and you capture that opponent's token, removing it from play. Land on an opponent's gate, on the other hand, and you remove one of that opponent's energy tokens; take an opponent's final token and she must flip her gate to the damaged side. Land on a damaged gate, and that opponent is out of the game!

At the start of a player's turn, that player first rolls a die. If he rolls a monster, he takes his normal turn; if he rolls his race's special symbol, he uses his special alien power:

Autogators move two separate monsters on the same turn.
Bigbears move one monster, then place a trap on an opponent's monster to immobilize it until the next Bigbears turn.
Finbacks move the same monster twice on the same turn.
Turboturtles move one monster, then place a shield on it that prevents it from being captured until that player's next turn.

The last player to have an open gate – whether damaged or not – wins!

The players interpret the role of witches involved in battle to become 'Queen of Witches'.

Every player has at his/her disposal a chest full of mice. Mice yes! In the game the mouse represents the 'magical power' of the witches. Each player starts each game with ten mice. During the game mice will be killed by spells and the winner will be the only player having at least one mouse left in his/her chest!

Battleship was originally a pencil-and-paper public domain game known by different names, but Milton Bradley made it into the well known board game in 1967. The pencil and paper grids were changed to plastic grids with holes that could hold plastic pegs used to record the guesses.

Each player deploys his ships (of lengths varying from 2 to 5 squares) secretly on a square grid. Then each player shoots at the other's grid by calling a location. The defender responds by "Hit!" or "Miss!". You try to deduce where the enemy ships are and sink them. First to do so wins.

The Salvo variant listed in the rules allows each player to call out from 1 to 5 shots at a time depending on the amount of ships the player has left (IE: players each start off with 5 ships, so they start off with 5 shots. As ships are sunk, the players gets fewer shots). This version of the game is closer to the original pencil-and-paper public domain game. Many versions of the pencil-and-paper game have different amounts of shots based on the ship (IE: Battleship: 5 shots. Destroyer: 3 Shots, Etc.).

In 2008, Hasbro "reinvented" the game into Battleship (Revised).
