#BoardGameGifts - PlayMonster's Top Games #HolidayGiftGuide


*DISCLOSURE* Thank you to PlayMonster for providing product samples in order to facilitate this post.  All thoughts are strictly my own. 


Today we have a great roundup of games from PlayMonster to share with y'all!  These games would make perfect gifts for game lovers this holiday season!  PlayMonster has an amazingly fun lineup of games to fit a variety of ages...they truly have something for everyone!  Check out our favorites for tweens to adults:  



Marbleocity introduces children to engineering principles and physics concepts with dynamic hands-on STEM model kits made of precision-cut wood in the USA. Each kit includes easy-to-follow assembly instructions in a graphic novel that features the Tinkineer characters. The comic introduces a physics concept or engineering mechanism that is the focal point of the model, all in a fun and engaging way! The result is an awesome kinetic sculpture and some new physics and engineering insight!  Building requires only household white glue…no special tools! 


11 year old D loves these types of kits and had a blast creating his marble track!


 Everyone has at least one crazy family member. If you don’t think you do, then that means it’s YOU! In Relative Insanity, you read a setup card aloud, like: “When my brother brought out his new baby to show the family, Granny blurted out…” Then everyone else chooses one of their punch line cards to finish the phrase, like: “You are not the father!” or “Somebody took a trip to the land of bad decisions,” etc. In between laughter, the reader picks the funniest one to give that player a point! It’s a different hilarious game each time you play! Features the humor of Jeff Foxworthy.
For 4 to 12 players.

This game is great for ages 14 and up.  It's kind of like that other adult card game, but with humor that is more appropriate for teens.  A really fun game to play at family gatherings, we really enjoyed Relative Insanity with the older kiddos at our Thanksgiving get together.


Think fast and shout your answer…because silence is deadly! Roll the big cubes to get your nine categories, like Contagious Things, Buffet Foods, Hotties or Colors, and then press the brain timer to get your letter and start the game! Take turns naming things in a category that start with that letter, and grab that cube! Hurry before the brain farts and you lose a token! 


With 54 categories and 21 letters, the game is different each time you play! For 3 or more players, ages 14 to adult.


I played this fun word game with 11 year old D and 13 year old A and we all enjoyed it! 



It’s an all-new, spinfully intense version of 5 Second Rule! Like in the original game, you gotta name 3 things, but you’ve got more time now…maybe! The new random timer is going, going, and you never know when it will stop! 


Hurry to name three things, then spin to see what you have to do next: name MORE things, draw another card, or pass to the next player! You can even combine this with the original game for even more fun! Batteries required. For 3 or more players.


Even the kiddos loved this game!  It's fast-paced and so fun!  Some of the categories were tricky like Name 3 Doctor Who characters or contestants on The Bachelor, so we created a house rule saying you could skip if it was a card you  really didn't know.  A hit for sure!


 It’s the game of things you know and love! From chocolate to cereal, football to flowers, soap to shoes—they all have LOGOs! The Logo Game is all about those logos and everything wrapped up in them. It taps into the knowledge we’ve piled up about nostalgic and new brands, and adds a few astonishing facts and surprises to entertain everyone! For 2 to 6 players.


So much fun, but best to play with older teens and adults because I totally obliterated the kiddos at The Logo Game!  It's not just about recognizing the logos, but includes lots of trivia as well.  Some questions were totally stumpers for us all!  Fun, fun, fun!


Furcorn really sings! This fun collectible looks, and sounds, exactly like the lovable monster from the popular mobile game My Singing Monsters! The monster’s warbly falsetto is strong when it sings solo, and fits perfectly with other monsters in the collection when they sing together! The collection of monsters seems to come alive when they sing together because of the unique and impressive technology that allows each monster to “know its part” and jump into the song at just the right time! Collect multiple monsters, set them near one another, and they’ll jump in and sing in sync! The more you have, the fuller your song! Furcorn stands over 4″ tall and comes with one of its favorite accessories—Smunkin Patch! Button cell batteries included.


Super cute and loveable, especially if you are a fan of the game!

PlayMonster definitely has something for everyone this holiday season!
