Before you hop on that plane home from the States, drop a copy of Tiki Topple into your bag. It is not small but as Grandma had gotten it for Alice for her birthday, we decided to find some space. Alice chose the game based on the terrific grin on the cover. Lucky for us, everyone, including adults, want to play it. It is a "tactical game of totem domination". But what that means is that it is easy to learn how to play but hard to master (or as Amos reminds me, quoting the Othello motto - a minute to learn, a lifetime to master). It is from Gamewright , of course. Another winner. It has won loads of awards as well:
- Mensa Select
- Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award
- iParenting Media Award
- Creative Child Magazine Preferred Choice Award
- National Parenting Center Seal of Approval
- Dr. Toy's Best New Products Picks
- Parents' Choice Approved
- Canadian Toy Testing Council "Best Bet" Award
- Today's Parent Magazine Top Toy of the Year
