Elementary: Outfoxed!

[@TheAdrr]

Many thanks for starting this chanel! I have a 3 years old child and It's not easy to find games for young children that are not only based on randomness. This look a bit difficult for now but I'll keep it in mind.

[@BoardGameSchoolhouse]

Glad you’re excited for the channel! I’d wait until your kiddo is 5 for Outfoxed, but the next episodes are going to be about Busytown, which is a great first board game for 3 year olds!

Great idea!

I wonder if my daughter 5yo with issues focusing would be able to handle this.

[@BoardGameSchoolhouse]

While I don't know your daughter, I would encourage you to try. I think adding the narrative storytelling to the game is likely to help keep her attention more. You might want to check out the Watch it Played episode first though to see how the flow of the game is before picking it up.

[@bupobm]

Since it’s a co-op game you can wildly vary the amount you are involved as you need to keep them focused and excited and reduce frustration. As they see how the game choices affect the outcome they may developed some strategy and want to make more independent moves.

[@bupobm]

Just to make sure : you can only visit a (? Clue ?) spot on the board to reveal once per game?

[@BoardGameSchoolhouse]

Correct. Place the clue on the spot on the board to show that it's been visited. If the team forgets whether the clue was a "yes" or a "no," you can return to that spot to put the clue back in the decoder and see it again.

@@BoardGameSchoolhouse thanks! That’s really helpful and wasn’t quite clear in the rules. Also like adding the storytelling in as your move any of the pieces. Great idea!
