FlapDoodle

The best of the bunch! This game was the favorite amongst all our testers. Somewhat like a scaled-down version of Hasbro’s popular Cranium games, FlapDoodle involves lots of ridiculous trivia and even sillier tasks. Play involves moving through a beautifully illustrated FlapDoodle “factory” using one of the deliciously absurd character game pieces, Mr. SourFace will try to trip you up, but land on a Ms. Goody Gumdrops space and you’ll receive an extra boost along the game board. This game is quick (about 20 minutes play time), creative, and endlessly amusing. An absolute must for any family’s board game collection. (Wiggity Bang Games, $19.95)
