We have already shared with you a compiled list of free RPGs, lovingly collected and organized by a true fan and geek. Such dedication separates the "occasional player" from the true "enthusiast". But if RPGs are not your thing, perhaps card games are. Just so happens that another true geek enthusiast has compiled a list of free card games created by some very inventive people.
At our household, we wage epic battles against germs, bacteria, and all the other nastiness that comes from living our lives to the fullest. As a father, I do all I can to protect, educate, and love my children. As a geek, I try to find better and more entertaining ways to do all three. When you find that special something that allows you to do so, you run with it and never look back!
With all the excitement, buzz, product support, and fandom currently being generated by George R. R. Martin's books and absolutely fantastic characters, it should come as no surprise that some very creative fellow geeks are showing their appreciation in their own special way.
Sharing is hard and a difficult lesson to teach little geeks. But what happens when big geeks forget the very lessons they are trying to teach? Am I just a big kid or do I have legit beef and my feelings are justifiable? According to my wife, "kinda". Clearly, there is an issue to solve here, including my own. Luckily, for every issue there is a solution, and in regards to my iPhone, I found one.
Unless you have not been paying attention, you know very well by now that Father Geek is all about sharing our geeky passions with our children. We have also said, time and time again, that it is never too early to start doing so. Case in point, my recent visit to see my family in Washington.
The designers of the Angry Birds: Knock on Wood game have created a fun translation from the video game and kept the theme intact. The components are well made for the age group and it has provided a decent level of fun for my family. I recommend this to anyone with little geeks who are also familiar with the video game or are looking for a worthwhile action/dexterity game.
