Wise Alec cards have points printed on the card. Players keep track
of their own points; the first player to receive the designated
number (not by where the pawn is on the board) wins. Wise Alec is

Word
Storm (2916) $29.95 Ages 8 and up
2 - 8 players What is neat about this game is everyone plays at
the same time. It is a tile-grabbing, crossword-style race game
that is fun for all. Players build words vertically and horizontally,
using letters drawn from the pile - and can rearrange letters at
any time. There are many clever twists to the game - including "word
storm" tiles. First player to correctly complete a crossword, wins.
As three of us played it this past weekend, I was pleased that it
felt as if you were competing against yourself, versus the other
players. Truly a thought provoking game..

Wizard (WIZ) $9.95 Ages: 10 - adult 3 to 6 players.
A personal favorite but not necessarily an educational game. Wizard
is a trumps and bidding game. In the first round, each player gets
one card; therefore, one trick is possible. Everyone bids, with
a penalty if the bid is over or under the actual number of tricks
taken. In each consecutive round, one more card is dealt, and therefore,
one more trick is available. The score card makes scoring a breeze.
