Smash Up - Mystical Monster Mayhem

Created by Paul Peterson

Smash up is a fun and interactive strategy game that kids of all ages can enjoy. The point of the game is to choose two factions such Pirates, Ninjas, Aliens, Ghosts, Monkeys or Bears to name a few and mix them together to make your unrelenting hoarde of monsters (my poison of choice would be Mythical Horses and Zombies). Now that you have your army, it is time to assault the bases. You will compete agains all of the other players to get the most amount of damage on a base before the base is destroyed. When a base is destroyed the points are given out to those three who did the most damage leaving the rest of the players to look on with envy. The first player to get 15 points win. Now sometimes you don't acually want to get first place. Sometimes the person who gets second place actually gets the most points so be sure to examine each base carefully before you attack. I LOVE this game and luck would have it so do my kids as well. I guess there is nothing better than destroying your fathers Zombie Horses with your Pirate Ninjas. It teaches strong analytical skills while you move your characters from base to base, using action cards to destroy enemy characters and makes the whole event fun while you learn. Reading the titles of the cards alone make it entertaining for the parents (all of the Ant card titles are in direct relation to the rockband "Queen"). Now pick up your time traveling dinosaurs and let's smash it up!
