<\/a>It’s child’s play — or at least tween play — with Ravensburger, which has been making engaging games and puzzles for 125 years.<\/p>\nBora Bora explores the ancient world of the South Pacific. The subtitle — Gods’ Goods and Greatness — sums up the strategy. Roll the dice and figure a way to island hop, build shelters, catch fish and gather shells. Send priests to the temple to gather offerings to native gods.<\/p>\n
This is not a quick game of checkers. You will have to put on your thinking cap. Expect to spend 60-120 minutes struggling to outwit and outlast one another — and have fun while you’re at it.<\/p>\n
Bora Bora is designed for two to four players age 12 and up.<\/p>\n
The game includes:<\/p>\n
- \n
- 1 game board<\/li>\n
- 4 player boards<\/li>\n
- 250+ tiles<\/li>\n
- 100+ wooden pieces<\/li>\n
- 60 cards<\/li>\n
- 12 dice<\/li>\n
- Detailed instructions; 12 pages of them!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
What you won’t find is video. The only electronics involved are in your brain.<\/p>\n
Too tough for you? Maybe you can find your battered Chutes and Ladders at the bottom of the toy box.<\/p>\n
Or maybe it\u2019s time to kid up and play a challenging game that does not involve a joy stick.<\/p>\n
You can find Ravensburger games and puzzles at lots of places, including Amazon<\/a>, Target <\/a>and Walmart<\/a>. The MSRP for Bora Bora is $49.99.<\/p>\n
