We’ve become accustomed to sequels in movies and video games and books - but it’s not too often that a beloved board game or card game gets that special treatment. So, like many other game-playing families out there, the announcement of a sequel was very exciting for us. Somehow this simple card game has become a top shelf family go-to. Sleeping Queens belongs to that elite group of games - and now his sister has had plenty of time to fall in love with it as well. And I can say with authority that there are only a few games he’s been playing since before his 6-year-old sister was even born that he’s still excited to play with us to this day.
Our son is 10 now, and we’ve been playing tons of board games since he was a toddler.
In fact, I’m not sure there’s a single other game in our collection that has had the same staying appeal as that classic card game about waking up those quirky queens.
The original Sleeping Queens from Gamewright is one of the family games that has truly stood the test of time.
