    Switch up family night this weekend!

    Hi friends, can I know how did you and your family spend the just passed long weekend? I believe everyone’s this long weekend is little different than ever. We didn’t host parties, we didn’t have a family & friends barbecue hangout, we didn’t have a getaway, we just stayed at home, being quarantined and being safe. During these special days, it’s nothing wrong to stay home, actually it is the thing we should do. But we need something to play with, especially some fun games!

    This long weekend, Ryan and I played a cool game that I want to introduce all of you know this. It is Mastermind game from Goliath.

    Can you crack the code?
    Can you create a code that can’t be cracked? 

    Mastermind is one of the world’s most popular games- it’s easy to learn and fast to play, and with more than 2,000 possible codes it’s different every time. The Codemaker sets a secret code, then the Codebreaker tries to match the code using logic, deduction, and maybe even a little bit of luck. After each move, the Codemaker must give clues that help the Codebreaker. Can you crack the code in 10 moves or less.. and can you come up with a code that will last for 10 moves?

    1. The Codemaker creates a secret code with any four of the pegs (there are six colors.)
    2. The Codebreaker places pegs in a pattern, trying to match the Codemaker’s pattern to break the code.
    3. The Codemaker signals if the Codebreaker has pegs of the right color and if they’re in the right position.

    Game contents

    • Mastermind game console with built-in storage tray and code shield
    • 108 Code pegs in 6 colors
    • 30 Key pegs in 2 colors
    • Complete instructions

    Bye, Felicia! Game Debuts; Say Hello to the Hottest New Party Game

    Saying goodbye has never been so fun! A new party game from Big G Creative, Bye, Felicia! incorporates the pop culture phrase in a fun and fast-paced game of wild word associations. For ages 12 and up and available now at Target, the game requires players to mind meld with friends and family to guess what others are thinking.

    Bye, Felicia! challenges great minds to think alike or at least guess how they think! Players have 30 seconds to list as many answers as they can before time runs out. The topics are random and range from “Foods You Eat with Ketchup” to “Bad Habits,” giving every round the potential for lots of laughs. When someone has an answer that doesn’t match another player, everyone says “Bye, Felicia!” good heartedly dismissing the person from that round of gameplay.

    “Our game designer came up with a great concept that will make friends and family laugh out loud,” said Shannon Swindle, Director of Product Development, Big G Creative. “It’s all about learning how well you know the other players and guessing what they’ll think, with the added twist of a goodbye diss.”

    The game’s objective is to match as many answers as possible with the other players to stay in the round the longest. Scoring tokens are collected each round and the person who collects the most tokens overall, wins the game!

    For three to eight players, Bye, Felicia! takes twenty minutes to play and includes 200 cards, 40 scoring tokens, eight in/out chips, one pad of paper, eight pencils, one die, one sand timer, and instructions.

    Bye, Felicia! The Game from Big G Creative hits Target stores at late June. Bye, Felicia! is a fun, fast-paced word association party game that can be played in just 20 minutes and is also fun to play over Zoom. Be prepared for lots of laughs as players try to guess what others are thinking.

    Do great minds really think alike? If not, players are good heartedly dismissed by saying, “Bye, Felicia!”  The game is for kids ages 12+ to adults, making it great for families at home.

    Available now at Target stores nationwide and Target.comBye, Felicia! The Game sells for $17.99 SRP. Published by Big G Creative, the game was invented by Peggy Brown.

    Shit Happens
    You’re going to read some really messed up stuff on these cards, and then rank them according to their shittiness.
