First Look
Box 1: Game Bands and Fisticuffs Game
A Broken Token Box Band-its $5.00 est These bands go around your game boxes, to keep everything together. This also work great for boxes that are falling apart.
There was a 10″ band, 2 8″ bands and a small 4″ band,
I used the small one of a deck of cards.
Fisticuffs – A Card Game $20.00 This has similar elements to UNO, only this is a fighting game. You take turns throwing jabs and blocking, You can even bring in other people to help you. There are points on the cards that help determine how many points you earn.
When you start playing, you selected one of 8 players.
This is a look at the game's detailed cards
Final Thought for Box 1: This box had a total value of $25.00, which is right in line with the cost of the box. I really enjoyed Fisticuffs and the bands are very useful for some of my games that are falling apart. If you want to try Game Box Monthly, use this link with the coupon SBOX3 to save $3.00.
Box 2: Artifacts Game
Artifacts Board Game $20.50 This is a game that uses dice to represent archaeologists and your mission is to collect artifacts and sell them to museums for reputation triggers.
This is a look at all the game pieces.
Final Thought for box 2: This box had a total value of $20.50, which is a bit less than the cost of the box. I generally like to see at least an even value with subscriptions. This is a unique game I wouldn't have know about if not for this subscription, so the value isn't horrible. If you want to try Game Box Monthly, use this link with the coupon SBOX3 to save $3.00.
