Gamers With Children

We review games and board games from a different perspective. We look at not only the age recommendations but other factors such as time, money, and various other attributes. Do I have enough time to play these games? Is their a continued monetary factor (monthly subscription or add-ons)? Are these things we can enjoy as a family or is this an after bedtime game. This plus tangents ranging from retro games, current and past tv and movie watching, and generally anything else three friends might talk about. Sit back and give it a listen. No matter how you found us we're glad you're here.
