Teeter Totter Tower
Teeter Totter Tower is a brilliant balance game, constructed from upcycled materials. Jenga meets abstract art as players attempt to score points by placing colorful shapes on either side of the seesaw. The seesaw teeters back and forth with high drama so be careful—too much weight will cause a topple, which means you lose. A very fun party game that is equally entertaining for kids or a bar crowd.
Monopoly 5 in 1
This handsome wooden chest houses everything you need to play five classic games. First, there's Monopoly, the classic property trading game for 2 to 4 players. Premium game components include die-cast metal pieces and solid wood houses and hotels. Flip over the Monopoly board to reveal a Chess/Checkers board underneath with wooden chess pieces and checkers stored neatly inside the chest. Also included is Monopoly Deal, a card-based version of the classic game that can be played in 15 minutes!
Kamikado
Vibrant design and sleek packaging make these Japanese pick up sticks stand out from the pile. Constructed from multi-colored paper, Kamikado is a modern update on the traditional skill game known as "mikado" in Japan. Toss the 41 sticks on the table and take turns removing one without moving any others. You'll need steady hands and a keen eye. Whoever steals away the most sticks without disturbing the pile wins!
Culture Memory Game
This provocative card set from The School of Life is an interactive visual index of great ideas. The 72 cards feature rich imagery, showcasing famous works of art, architecture, design, and literature from throughout human history. The accompanying booklet explains how each iconic image depicts a specific perspective or surprising insight into the question of how to live a good life. Most matching games merely test your memory but this one may enrich your understanding of the world.
Bauhaus Chess Set
This game of chess with clean lines is characteristic of the timeless Bauhaus style. Josef Hartwig’s chessmen, designed in 1923, have reduced forms which, in contrast to commonly used figures, are symbols based purely on the function and form of the maneuver of each piece. Cubes, cylinders and balls will lead you move by move to checkmate.
Domino Puzzle Maze
The Domino Puzzle Maze is three games in one. Each of the 28 wooden tiles has traditional domino spots on one side and bold abstract designs on the other. However, the patterns and shapes in the back designs, form a puzzle hidden in plain sight. If you can solve the puzzle, you'll discover the maze. Escape the maze and you’ll have enjoyed all three nested layers of this deceptively minimalist gaming set.
