Spinmaster Rock Me Archimedes
(Spinmaster $34.99)
We played this is total silence, intent on not making the balance board tip to the table and be the first to lose. Intense as that silence was, when the first player managed to get four marbles in the end zone and won, we both agreed this was good fun! It's a two-player game with easy to learn rules. Named for the Greek mathematician who discovered the laws of the lever, this is a game that calls for a light touch with your hands and some strategy, and a little luck wouldn't hurt, either. Beautifully crafted of wood, this makes a nice addition for family game time. The black and white marbles and die that tells how many moves you can make, all fit in the drawer under the playing board.
