Following in Daddy's Footsteps

The other day #2 Boy called to me, "Mom, will you play Domino Cards?"  Not sure what it was but deciding it probably was something with the Dominos that we had out I agreed for him to teach me.  As I enter the kitchen #2 Boy showed me the new game he had made.  Little pieces of papers with an "X" on the back side.  He explained the game while holding up one of the cards that had a squiggly line on the back, "You have to try and find this card after I mix them all up."  After playing the game a couple of times #2 Boy realized that picking the right card was easy since it was slightly longer than the other cards so he trimmed them down to the right size making a little harder to tell which one was the right card.

Now if you are wondering how the above story and the title fit together then it is time to let you in on a little secret.  Dad and his two brothers have been working together over the past four years (in the evenings) to create the newest strategic board game, Tile Twist.
On August 17th a shipment from China arrived carrying almost 5,000 Tile Twist games!  Since that time Dad and his brothers have been busy trying to get the games into the hands of the consumers with giveaways, flyers, coupons and marketing to some game stores.  It is exciting to have the product on hand and already hearing back from those (we know and don't really know) that have enjoyed this great game.  So if you are looking for something fun and new for yourself or as a gift...check out the website at http://tiletwist.com where you can learn more about how to play and even buy the game online.
