Apples to Apples is a fun game. As a volunteer, I want to spotlight this game, because I have so much fun playing it. I could tell you how to play this game, but it's not very difficult to learn it. If you already know how to play this game and you don't own it, stop at PERC and borrow it!

New Game: Sumoku

Sumoku. SUMoku sounds similar to popular puzzle game Sudoku. But, there are tiles to be used instead of just a paper and pencil. In all SUMmoku games, tiles must be arranged in a corssword-style pattern such that each row and column adds up to a multiple of the key number. The key number is the number rolled on the die. The created pattern itself is called a Sumoku. Here at PERC, you may find this game in the General Math section, or under the spotlighted "New Items."

This game is suitable for:
Ages 9 to Adult
For 2 to 5 players

SLEEPING GRUMP

A CO-OPERATIVE GAME

For ages 4 to 7. This game may be played with 2, 3, or 4 Players.

 This is a co-operative fantasy game. The story goes like this: A grump has taken all of our village treasures and is now fast asleep at the top of the beanstalk. Together, we quietly climb the stalk to get back our share of the treasures without waking the greedy grump. If awakened he grabs all the treasures back and we must start all over. This is a fun game for young kids; who will use their imagination and enjoy beating the grump.
