Description

This game is based on the history of Nicaraguan Sign Language. Nicaragua in the 1970s had no official form of sign language. In 1977, something happened. Fifty deaf children from across the country were brought together to a school in Managua. Without a shared language to express themselves, the children did something remarkable—they created one. In Sign, we follow a story inspired by that journey.

What's Included?

68 Large Form (3.5" x 6") cards to give players instruction during play. Professionally layed out by Brennen Reece with art from Miranda Meeks.
Facilitator's guide in the form of a teacher's booklet that can be read while running the game. Apart from a few short introductory pages on preparing the space, no additional preparation is required.

Do you like rolling dice in Catan?

Machi Koro 2 has the same feel as the rolling dice and collecting resources part of Catan. Only in Machi Koro's case it is collecting money. Purchased for my niece (11) for Christmas and she enjoys it. It's simple enough for kids her age and complex enough to keep adults engaged.

Cascadia: Rolling Rivers (Retail Edition)

A good pre-game game.

Dogfight is a good game when one of your friends shows up early for a group game. Quick setup, quick teach, quick playtime. It rewards the ability to read people as well as the board. Delivered promptly and in perfect condition at the best price.

Great Service

First time ordering a board game from Boardgame Bliss. I mistakenly selected pickup when ordering. I communicated my mistake and had a prompt reply directing me how to change my order. Game shipped quickly afterwards and arrived well packaged to prevent any damage to the contents.

Just what we needed for our group

I had been interested in this game, when I finally discovered it in November. Someone bought it and brought it to our board game group. I was knee deep in a heavy game and looked over.
I immediately bought the game and discovered it's a perfect light weight, casual game.
Very easy on the eyes and mind and over quite quickly.
A perfect warm up before the main event or cool down after, with just enough difficulty to keep one interested, allowing for banter among the players.

A very good board game to initiate newbies into the hobby gaming world.
