Funhill Games

Biblical board games for everyone

Funhill Games was created in 2013 with the goal of being a publisher of fun, Biblically themed games. Since then Funhill Games has published two board games, Kings of Israel and Wisdom of Solomon, and released a video game version of Kings of Israel. Soon we will be releasing our next game, a 2-5 player deduction game called, “Disciple Detective”, along with our first puzzle!

Disciple Detective now available to order!

A 2-5 player cooperative, or competitive, deduction game staring the disciples. Think-y, fun, and educational, Disciple Detective is great for the whole family!

It has been awhile since I have played a race game

It has been awhile since I have played a race game but tonight we played a round of Downforce. Downforce is a racing game with some betting and auctioning involved. It is pretty easy to pick up but we did not properly understand the repercussions of our actions until halfway through the game. It was fun though and our second game will probably play out a bit differently.

My favorite racing game would probably be Formula D, I need to get that to the table with the kids. Anyone else have a favorite racing game?

Game night with our 5-year old so you know Telestrations is going to be brought out. Telestations just works well anytime we have six or more people playing, and the less talent drawing the better. It is a light activity that will produce a lot of laughs. I have to do the reading and writing when it is needed for our youngest but it works out ok. #telestrations #baddrawing #partygames

Played another game where you can teach all of the rules while shuffling the deck: Point Salad. Point Salad is a quick and easy to pick up set collection game with some nice strategy to dabble in. It also features dual purpose double-sided cards which I always like to see. Bohnanza is another good game that does that, along with our own Disciple Detective. I liked Point Salad a bit, the math is a little too much for younger players but it is easy to get to the table. #pointsalad #aeg #bohnanza #discipledetective #learnwhileyoushuffle #familygames

I have been looking for a Uno killer recently. A short game that you can play basically without needing a rulebook, but has a touch of strategy or interaction to make it enjoyable for older kids. Just Desserts is close to that, you can almost play it without a rulebook and there is a touch of strategy. It's not quite the Uno killer I am searching for but it fills a spot! #looneylabs #justdesserts #norulebook #familygames #unokiller

We are part way through a game of Broom Service.

We are part way through a game of Broom Service. It's a good lighter weight game that involves a bit of guessing of intentions. Guess well and you will get to take powerful actions, do it poorly and you might not do anything at all. The kids were actually ok when they predicted poorly and did nothing because usually there was someone else who did the same. Bonus happiness points if dad was the one who also did poorly. #broomservice #alea #ravensburger #halloweengames #familygames #daddoesnothing

We have been playing a bit of
Zombie Kidz Evolution recently. Zombie Kidz is a great kids game that is engaging for adults. It is a legacy game, so the rules change the more games you play which is a great way to start out kids with just a few rules and ramp up game play as you play it over and over. And our kids love the theme so it works on many levels. #zombiekidzevolution #asmodee #familygames #legacygames

Played On Tour for the first time tonight. It has a bit of a Rolling America feel to it but I like the touring visual quite a bit more. And it makes it more fun when you dump a bad number on a state. "Sorry guys, low ticket sales in North Dakota this year." #ontour #rollandwrite #rollingamerica #boardgametables #wedontcrosstherockies

Played Orleans this weekend with one of my boys.

Played Orleans this weekend with one of my boys. Games where you draw tiles or roll dice always seem to feel more satisfactory than deck heavy games. I am not talking about the gameplay part of the game, just the physical connection to the game. That might just be me though. Anyway, Orleans has some fun ways to expand your little empire, and the traveling part of the board reminds me of Macao. As a 2-player game there is less interaction but that is sometimes good with kids. #orleansboardgame #tmggames #tilebuilder

We have been playing a bit of an early version of our next game! It is a card drafting game involving people, places, and things from the Old Testament. We are leaning towards a football card collection theme, working title is "Old Testament Fantasy Draft". #oldtestament #funhillgames #draftinggames #biblegames

Played Wingspan last night, a fun worker placement

Played Wingspan last night, a fun worker placement game with a unique theme. I really enjoy games that are fun, strategic, and will also teach things while playing it, something I try to incorporate in our own Funhill games. There is a lot of bird information and quirks to process in the first game of Wingspan but things click soon after. Wingspan also joins the list of games that contain too many cards for me to shuffle all at once. #wingspan #educationalgames #stonemaiergames #funhillgames #cantshufflethatdeck

Started up a game of Stone Age with the big kids.

Started up a game of Stone Age with the big kids. One of my favorite younger gamer worker placement games. There are choices but not an overwhelmingly large amount of choices and kids love rolling dice in the dice cup. It is also easy to add catch-up devices for the kids, I normally give out extra workers or food depending on the age. Stone Age will stay in my collection for some time! #stoneage #zmangames #dicecup #workerplacement

Tried Fabled Fruit out tonight with our four oldest. Interesting family worker placement game that will change over time. We did not get to any of the new cards yet but the lack of changes made it a good introduction to the game. #fabledfruit #strongholdgames #familyboardgames

Grandparents are visiting so the kids have to sque

Grandparents are visiting so the kids have to squeeze in a couple games of Scrabble with Grandma. One of the classic games that earns its title, Scrabble appeals both to the word people and the math people in our family. Our house rule is that players must be able to define any words they put down which can lead to some interesting definitions for real words. #scrabble #grandmagames #wordgames #questionablespelling

Tried a game of Cryptid with my boys, it went pretty well. My oldest nerd was stoked when he heard the rules, deduction games are right down his alley. Not really easy to tweak to help the younger players out but I don't think it is a huge deal. #cryptid #deductiongame #ospreygames

A quick game of Fantasy Realms with the boys. I like how quick it is to pick up while still providing some good Rummy-esque decisions. It also got my mind churning for game design ideas, which is exciting! #fantasyrealms #wizkids #combogames

Played Barenpark today with the kids, a fun tie laying game that was kept close by a few bonus points to the kids at the start. Easy to pick up, next time we will play with the advanced rules! #bärenpark #lookoutgames #tilelayinggames #lotsofpandas
