Good Game for young kids....
it's a fun little game, doesn't take very long unless everyone is distracted. Which sometimes happens with young kids. The good news with this is that it's not hard to jump right in and take someone else's turn, so you can play teams, and the adults can play and let the kids sub in if you like. There is a very real strategy in placement, so the game goes deeper if you want it. There is a also a feeling of not being threatened for the first 5-10 turns. there's not much analysis paralysis until late in the game when options are low. so it's an ok game for Adults, but a very good game for kids.

This is a fun game! I like the solo option, too. Unfortunately, I don't have a great brain for this type of spatial thinking.

Book Rating
This book may not be very long, but it does leave you with a lot to think about. The title is somewhat misleading, as of course that answer isn't really provided. I can't say I expected it would be as that is possibly something we can't ever really "know". That being said, the essays within leave you with a lot of pieces of the puzzle to help you piece it together as best as possible for yourself. Much of the book focuses on the scientific reasons for our existence, meaning evolution, but not just of the physical variety, but also the sociological, which provided for many of the book's most fascinating moments. I don't know that I feel all that much closer to understanding the meaning of human existence, but I do feel I learned some interesting things about the very nature of humanity, and that's something.

This game was absolutely legendary in helping to shape the course of video games. The ability to free roam the land of Hyrule was absolutely unheard of. The variety of enemies to fight and dungeons to explore were ahead of its time. The need to find items to be able to progress on your quest was absolutely innovative, but where the game suffers is the extremely high difficulty and the overall barrenness of the world. That is most definitely due to the limitations of the time, but the fact still remains that the majority of the map was pretty much the same. Overall its still a good game and an integral part of gaming history.
