Should You Allow Your Child to Have a Debit Card?

When it comes to the benefits of having a debit card, there are many. Perhaps the most popular one is convenience, but there are also disadvantages. Debit cards are not toys, after all, and the benefits of owning one can quickly be outweighed by the consequences of using it irresponsibly. (sponsored post)

Say Anything Game Review

Everyone has an opinon. Heck, Father Geek wouldn't exist if it weren't for opinions (which, in our opinion, would be very sad). But if everyone has an opinion, is one better than another? Certainly an educated and thoughtful opinion would be of more value than a person's opinion that is based purely on speculation and personal bias, right? Well, not always, and in this game, almost never.

The Scout Motto for Gamers

A little over a year ago, when I had my own web site, I wrote about the games I always have with me in the car. I took an old Backgammon set we had and filled the empty space with 7 games available to play at a moments notice. As times goes on, the contents of my little gamer's travel kit continues to change. I do my best to live by the Scout Motto which has made playing games a possibility anytime, anywhere.

Chef Cuckoo! Game Review

It's a fact that anyone can learn how to cook. Given enough time, patience, and training, an individual can go from ruining a bowl of cereal to creating a 7 course meal that would make Wolfgang Puck sit up and take notice. But there is an elite group who are truly talented and can take anything you put in front of them to create edible miracles. Are you up to the challenge?

Fallen City of Karez Game Review (prepublished version)

It once was the greatest city known to man. It was said that the walls of Karez were made of gold and all those who dwelled within them were blessed with prosperity and health. But those are just stories and the city is now nothing more than ruins. By royal decree, the leaders of the greatest Guilds have been summoned and given one command: rebuild Karez. Such an opportunity promises great wealth and personal gain of power, but it's a balancing act and a deceitful one at that. Outwardly, the Guilds must appear to be working for the greater good of the Kingdom and their King, but secretly they work to further their own goals. Only by working together can the Guilds rebuild the fallen city of Karez, but they must fight each other to rule it.

Elephant’s Trunk Game Review

Emmet the Elephant has had enough. Too much stress at the office has finally taken its toll on the poor elephant making him a bundle of nerves and very jumpy. So jumpy, in fact, that his doctor told him he needed to go spend 2 weeks on a beach to calm his nerves. You have volunteered to help your friend, Emmet, pack and see him off for a well deserved vacation. But what Emmet and you are not aware of is that a sneaky mouse is living in those trunks, ready to spring out! Such a surprise would startle anyone, but for poor Emmet, the shock will make him toss all his clothes into the air and make a huge mess. Good thing you don't have plans for the rest of the day.
