Checkers, Chess and Backgammon Combine Strategy with Fun

Game night is a concept that has been evolving ever since the first time a group of people sat down with some snacks and a deck of cards. At Sears youl find a wide selection of games to make your own game nights fun and entertaining for everyone involved.

True classics like chess, checkers and backgammon provide hours of fun for players in many age groups. The most basic sets include cardboard game surfaces and plastic pieces perfect for walking kids through their first few games. Sets for collectors and more serious players may be made from wood or glass, with some particularly detailed chess sets including intricate metal pieces. Serious backgammon players will appreciate sets that come in briefcase-style carrying cases that can be brought anywhere.

A variety of new card games have popped up in recent years, giving gamers young and old more choices when it comes to entertainment. Adaptations of popular board games are now available for nights when there's not enough time for a long gaming session. Traditional card games like Phase 10, Uno and poker remain popular as well. Modern games that involve skills like word building and memory are great for playing with kids and give competitive adults new ways to challenge each other.

Kid's games are another great way to engage young children in learning activities outside of academics. Many games aimed at kids involve a particular skill set and are meant to help strengthen kids through gameplay. Some, like pickup sticks and Jenga, hone fine motor skills while others engage critical thinking skills by requiring kids to plan the next move before taking a turn. Word games are a particularly popular category for family fun. One of the most recognizable of these is Scrabble, but others like Mad Gab, Scattegories and word poker will have everyone in the family pitting literary skills against each other in a good-natured battle for the win.

Teens and adults like to have fun, too, and there are many adult games that cater directly to people of those ages. Card games and board games at this level have more complex premises and more difficult gameplay than those geared towards kids and can take longer to play. If you have the time for a few hours of serious gaming, these are the games you want.

All these games and so many more are just waiting to be played. Shop Sears to make your next game night the best it can be.
