We’re looking for the younger members in our community to WOW us with some amazing videos to share with the world (which we know you can). Should you choose to take up this challenge, we’ll post you a signed Kickstarter Exclusive postcard with a thank-you note from the team for you to treasure (and, we assume, pass down for generations as a prized heirloom).

Holidays and festivities abound throughout the year – but there’s something about nearing the end of a year that ramps up the festive season feelings. As we approach some goliath holidays between now and the new year, the number of get-togethers is on the rise. And, not remotely biased at all, we feel that one of the best ways to spend those get-togethers is by playing board games.

Part of the beauty of Beasts of Balance is that there’s no right or wrong way to play the game. That being said, there’s no harm in giving a few pointers on how to get the most out of the game – from setting up the game for the first time, to become a stacking master.

So without further ado, here is our beginner’s guide to Beasts of Balance (or non-beginners, even). Happy stacking!

The media each generation grows up with is constantly shifting. And today’s relatively new kid on the block, streaming, has certainly made its mark on consumer entertainment – with platforms like Twitch providing a hub for audiences to watch and interact with others doing anything, from making a meal to playing games, as it happens in real time.

Hi folks – we have a super app update that will (depending on your excitability threshold) make you say OMG!

How do you help kids learn without boring them in the process? Give them an educational game, filled with challenges that reward cooperation as well as independent thought, that will make learning fun!

Once the children have the idea of the game, and they know how it works, it is possible to teach some aspects of the science curriculum with reference to it (in particular Habitats and Environments), as well as using it as a basis for creative English writing.
