The Haywire Group’s Box of Rocks, for kids ages 12 and up, is a game in which players must answer a series of trivia questions that have the correct answer of 0, 1, or 2. After the player gives an answer, he or she shakes the box of rocks and opens it to see the rock’s answer. Pizza Party Supreme is now available in a four-player version. In this adaptation of the game made for kids ages 6 and up, players draw a pizza slice card, roll their pizza topping dice, and try to match the toppings from the dice to the toppings on their cards. The first player to complete six slices—a full pizza—wins the game.
