Richard Scarry's Busy Town Board Game

How to Play: There are 2 spaces on the board where actions take place: The Seek & Find Space and the Goldbug Card Space. Player uses the spinner and moves that many spaces on the board. Depending on which space they land will determine the action they need to take. For example: If you land on the Seek & Find Space all players draw a Seek & Find Card. They keep it face down until the player that rolled the space says to GO. Players look for the items on their cards. When a player finds the image from the card on the game board, the player points to the item and rings the bell.

When a player lands on the Goldbug Card Space the player draws a card from the Goldbug Card Deck and follows the instructions on the card. Those actions can include taking another player’s card, losing one of their own cards, move back a space and move forward a space.

Richard Scarry's Busytown Board Game

My Thoughts: We’re a family of 4 and are always looking for new family-friendly games to play on our family game nights. We played this game last weekend with our kids (ages 13 and 7 1/2). It’s really easy-to-set up and it only took us 5 minutes to read over the instructions and start playing. The concept of the game is simple for children to understand. There’s nothing complicated about it.

We played the game 3 times that night and each time we played it took less than 35-40 minutes. We took our time with it. We really enjoy board games that don’t take HOURS to complete. My 7 1/2 year old son really ENJOYED this game. He had so much fun trying to find the items and to be the first player to ring the bell. My 13 year old enjoyed the game too since it was one that she could play with her brother (at his age level) that wasn’t boring. It’s a great game for families with multiple-aged children playing. It’s fun, exciting and fast-paced.

Murder Mystery Party Case Files Death By Chef's Knife

1. Motive – Who had a reason to kill the victim? Does any particular person benefit from the victim’s death?

2. Means – Who had access to the murder weapon? Does any particular person have the unique knowledge, skill, or physical ability necessary to use the murder weapon?

3. Opportunity – Who had a chance to kill the victim? Is any particular person unaccounted for (has no alibi) during the time the victim was killed?

Murder Mystery Party Case Files: Death By Chef's Knife

Last weekend we had 2 of our friends come over to sit down and play this game with us. One of the really cool things about this game is that it’s UNLIKE any other game that we’ve played. We host friends and/or family game nights at our home twice a month and have done so for years. We’ve played hundreds of different games and trust me, it’s unlike anything else you’ve played.

This game gets you thinking and you have to pay attention to the clues. It puts you into the detective’s shoes and you have to solve the crime before anyone else. You have to determine the motive, means, and opportunity of each suspect in the case to solve it. We found it really challenging to play but in a good way! If you’re tired of silly board games…you’ll enjoy this murder mystery party game for sure!

Head on over to Are You Game to check out all of the games and puzzles that they have to offer. Great gift idea for that person on your holiday gift-giving list.
