Choice games from Rio Grande Games

Rio Grande Games offer players a wide variety of choice games. Choice games are games that offer players choices that can lead them to success or failure rather than games that rely on luck, such a lucky card draws or die rolls. When children play choice games with friends or family, they learn that making good choices leads to good results – and bad choices to losing the game. They learn that making good choices is better than relying on luck and these lessons will lead them to make good choices in life.

Chicken Cha Cha Cha is an excellent family game that looks great with large wooden chickens and children find fun to play and generally do so successfully as it emphasizes memory, which we have found favors young children over their older siblings and adults.

Monster Factory is a monster building games that is loved by all who play it. It is especially fun for families as they compete to build the largest monsters while playing tiles to add to their monsters, making them bigger or to their opponent’s monsters, perhaps finishing them as very small monsters. On catch to the game, a monster only scores when it is complete, so very large, but incomplete monster score nothing. Thus, it is often better to make a medium sized monster followed by small minions that strive for a very large monster and find it unfinished and worthless at game end.

In Bohnanza, players compete to become the most successful bean farmer. The players plant beans, trade beans with other players, and harvest their bean fields for gold coins. Bohnanza is a card game unlike any other as the players many never sort the cards in their hands, but play them in the order they draw them. This is where trading comes in very handy. By trading cards a player does not want to a player who wants them, both gain and improve their chance of harvesting large bean fields for maximum profit.
