My family and I love having family game nights. At least once a week we enjoy playing a family game together. If it is raining out, or we are having a low key day, we will also play games together. Looking in my game closet, I noticed I really need to switch games out and update. Luckily, Blue Orange Games contacted me to review 4 of their new games.

The first thing I noticed about Blue Orange Games is that they have really cool and fun looking games. Totally different than the usually department store game selection. I couldn’t wait to get the games and play them with my two children.
The first game I played with my children was Pool Party. What a perfect game for the hot summer weather we are having here in Florida! The box is colorful and fun, my kids couldn’t wait to open and play!
Pool Party ($21.99)
Ages 6 and UP
2-4 PlayersSummer is here, and so is pool party season! It’s time to beat the heat and cool off in the topsy-turvy pool. Better yet, join in on the cannon ball contest and form a team with your fellow party-goers. But watch out! Too many swimmers and this wacky pool can easily spill over, tossing you and everyone else out. Make big splashes by propelling your teammates into the unsteady pool, and be the first to successfully land 3 divers in to win! Unique components and high energy gameplay will make Pool Party your family’s new favorite.
The second game we played is called Maki Stack. My daughter loves sushi, so when she saw the box she automatically wanted to play it right away.
Maki Stack ($27.99)
Ages 7 and UP
2-6 Players
Order’s up- it’s time for a sushi showdown! Put on your mask and grab your teammate, or prepare to use your fingers as chopsticks. Balance and arrange the sushi, plates, and soy sauce bottles, and make sure to execute the order exactly as shown on the card. But be careful, one wrong move and everything might tumble over! Race a friend or challenge as a team in this sushi stacking extravaganza. High-quality wooden pieces and crazy stacking combinations make Maki Stack perfect for a game night full of fun and laughs.
This game is so much fun! My daughter loved where you have to use a blindfold to stack the pieces. We both had so much fun playing this game.
The third game is called Who did it? If you have a child that loves emojis, especially the “poop” emoji, they will love this game.
Who did it?
Ages 6 and UP
3-6 Players
In this hilarious card game, players race to get rid of their cards so they can avoid the blame of owning the animal that pooped. Each game is as funny as it is fast; quickly find your card, be the first to throw it down, and then blame someone else! Was it YOUR cat that pooped in the living room? Because it wasn’t my fish!
Break it out at the next family game night, social gathering, or cocktail party. Who Did It? is sure to bring laughs and just the right amount of potty humor. Plus the cute, plushy zippered pouch keeps all the cards and tokens safe, and is the perfect size for on-the-go fun.
This game had all of us lagging the whole time! A simple yet fun card game that was all about Poop!! So fun!
Last but not least….my absolute favorite out of all of them, Shaky Manor!!
Shaky Manor ($25.99)
Ages 7 and UP
2-4 Players
Local legend says the house on the corner contains hidden treasures… you find yourself taking a chance and entering to strike it rich, but it isn’t that easy to keep the treasures safe from the creatures that haunt the dusty rooms!
In this game, race to position your Meeple Player and 2 Treasure Chests into the room indicated on the Challenge Card by shaking and tilting your box. Each time you succeed in keeping the treasure safe, you win the card as a point and the player to your right adds a new spooky creature into your box to make the next round harder!
I love how you can start playing this game before opening the box! Start tilting! Two of the rooms are together with the play pieces, so you can see through the box and start playing. This game was so much fun, I love games of skill and logic. My 9-year-old had a blast playing this as well did I!
I was super impressed with these awesome games from Blue Orange! These games would be a great addition to your family game nights. They would also make fabulous gifts!
