Since Christmas we have been playing the card game Wizard ... pretty much non-stop! After dinner we usually play a game or two. Can't really play with just 2 players so Lyden, Andy and I play 3 handed, 4 handed when Erin joins us and 6 handed when Rachel and Tyler come over on Sundays. When we returned from holidays, Lyden gave Andy his belated Father's Day Gift, "Wizard Deluxe" (shown in top photo) which gave us an added dimension to the game - instead of calling how many tricks we expect to get, each player uses the Wizard dial and then turns it face down on the table - no one knows how many tricks the other players are going for so it is less easy to "stitch someone up" by making them take extra tricks they did not call. We took a Wizard game to England and introduced Nev and Teresa to the game which they thoroughly enjoyed. Poor Teresa never won a game the whole time we were there! Recipe for family bonding: Wizard!
