Reviews
Twinkle (Punch Board Media): “While, with the right people, it generates those brilliant ‘everyone is watching the roll’ moments where you all scream or moan. Which makes it a winner for me.”

Floriferous (One Board Family): “An easy recommendation for any game collection. We’ve played this with 2 of our teenage kids along with dozens of friends and family already. It’s a game that has enough depth and replay-ability that gameplay doesn’t get mundane. The beautiful artwork on each card from Clémentine Campardou makes the game absolutely shine every time we play.”

Word Explosion (Unfiltered Gamer): “Word Explosion isn’t going to turn me into a word-game lover, but it does provide plenty of twists and wrinkles to be a crowd pleaser. Going in, I expected my wife to love it (and she did), but I was surprisingly impressed.”
