New Rear Window Board Game Coming This Summer!

We play a lot of games in our house. As previously mentioned, we've really been enjoying this Willy Wonka Golden Ticket game with the kids. My husband is more into games than I am, BUT I got pretty excited when I heard that there's going to be a new game based on Rear Window coming out this summer!

We have a number of movie-based games, but this is the first one based on a really good classic film and it looks awesome. Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelly are even on the front of the box! It's a cooperative game where you play as the characters in the film to solve a possible murder. Here's the official description:

Experience Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpiece Rear Window in this game of deduction and suspense. Carefully observe strange clues and ominous patterns in the things going on in the apartments across the way. There are parties, knives, a saw, bickering, laughing, music ... and a mysterious trunk. Do you detect a murder? Or is the secret, private world of the neighbors planting frightening ideas in your mind?

Everyone needs to buy this so that they keep making more!

Here are some of the other movie-based games we like:

Ravensburger Universal Back to The Future Game Strategy Game. My husband loves Back to The Future and I suppose it's getting close to classic movie status. I really enjoy this game. It's a little harder for our younger kids. There is another Back to The Future game, but we haven't tried that one.

Villianous. We kind of love this game even though it's probably more complicated than it needs to be. Pick a villian and do your worst. There are a bunch of expansions so you really have many options. Ursula is my favorite but I played as Cruelle DeVille the other day and she was pretty great too!

The Haunted Mansion - Call of The Spirits. Ok, maybe this isn't based on a movie, but it's a good one so I'm including it!

Happy gaming!
