I thought I would share a game Charlie and I’ve played over and over which we received in exchange for this review. The game is called AMIGO Code Stack! — Crack The Code Family Word Game with 4 Games in 1 for Up to 8 Players. In the game we are asked to figure out the word. If you’ve played word games in the past you know the person who knows the most words usually wins. Code Stack! is for people of different ages and vocabularies. Kids and parents can play together.
In the game we stack up colorful disks to make words in a simple code, then race together to figure out your opponents words. Of course younger players or people like David and Charlie who have trouble reading and spelling will make up smaller words. Older players may guess longer words. I like how the game gives us instructions for 4 different games including Solitaire which of course is my favorite game to play.
There is a set of cards that tells you which color of disk to use to create words so even people who have trouble spelling will be able to play the game and make bigger words. This is a fast game to learn because there is only 5 instructions. It’s a European quality game. Fun for kids and parents with lots and lots of laughter as you race to see who will win. In this game 1 to 8 players can play at a time and it’s for people 6- to adults but if you help kids just learning to spell I could see them playing as well. The colors in the game work with color-blindness.
There’s a problem with family word games: The player who knows the most words usually wins. So we designed code stack! For people of different ages and vocabularies (like parents and kids) to play together. Stack up colorful discs to make words in a simple code, then race to figure out your opponents’ words. Young players guess shorter words and older players guess longer words, so it’s not how many words you know that matters. Code stack! Features rules for four games (including solitaire), all using the same clever coding system. Can you crack The code?
