Family Zone News

Our exciting Family Zone returns at UK Games Expo.

 

The Zone is run by Nigel Scarfe of Imagination Gaming

 

This year at Games Expo we are having an exciting area aimed at not only families and young people but one that will contain games we think can surprise and entertain everyone.

Imagination Gaming will be bringing a range of games from all over the world, some of which you may know, others that you will not, but all of which will have you thinking, laughing and enjoying yourselves. We will have a host of games covering lots of different topics that will be suitable for everyone from six to ninety six! We will have card, board, tile, puzzle, dice, strategy, two player games, four player games, eight player games and even twenty four players if we can get them.

All of the games we are bringing are used in our work with schools, libraries and youth clubs and so on so we know how much people love playing them. They are all simple to learn, easy to play and don’t last too long, which means you will be able to play a huge number of games before the day is through and nearly all of the games are better when played in a big group, so we will make sure you get to meet lots of other people and make some new friends and gamers along the way.

We will have a great team of demonstrators with us ensuring you have the best of times and teaching you how to play the games in the quickest and cleverest ways possible.

There will be lots of prizes and competitions on offer but that won’t stop you from being able of jumping in and out of the area as you see fit. Also, If you are new to the event, our team will help, pointing out the areas of the show we think you will enjoy the most, depending on the makeup of your group.

Here are just some of the games we will have for you to play. Why not look some of these up on the net and find one you would like to try out?

Incan Gold, Gem Dealer, Ingenius, Straw, Zeus on the Loose, Word on the Street, Cornucopia, Botswana, Rorschach, For Sale!, Katamino, Tantrix, Wildlife Rescue, Jurassic Wars, Crows, Worm Up!, Apples to Apples, Top Dogs, Snatch, Catch the Match, Sherlock, Pitch Car, Saboteur, Jungle Speed, Qwirkle, Zooloretto, Crosswise, Dixit, Infinite City, Rat-A-Tat Cat, Kachina, Wallamoppi, Cornucopia, Cloud 9, Lecardo, Army of Frogs, Rabbit & Carrot, Think Trice and many, many, many more.

If you have any styles of games or specific games that you have seen us use and would like us to bring along then drop us an email and we’ll do our best to help you out.

Also, if you have any members of the family with specific requests, learning needs etc, again, get in touch and let us know and we’ll make sure they can have the best of times bringing something that they can join in and compete at equally.

We look forward to meeting you all down there and remember, these games will appeal to everyone, not just families. We are confident that we can find something that everyone will enjoy from hardcore gamer to first time players. Give it a try, we might just surprise you.
