Now that it's sale season, I want to stock up on fun games for my kids.

What are some must-haves? They love Cover your Assets. Oldest is 9.

I think cover your asset is a fantastic game. My kids were personally up to next level games after they played cover your assets. We upt the game to more stategy games. So the regular ticket to ride. Went over well.
Miles bornes-is also a card game if you get stuck it becomes boring.
Clue game-deduction
Blokus-a step up from connect 4 (skills used)
Monopoly deal or faster monopoly version

If your playing with younger kids
Deductible-deduction
Sorry

Matching/memory is always fun. My 12 and 10 year old played today and enjoyed lol.

Monopoly junior is fun for for 3.56 7 year old

Rat a tat cat is a great 5 minute bedtime game for ages 4-8

Skyjo is like rat a tat cat but for older kids.

Perpetual commotion for ages 8 and up is a fast fun family game.

We have closets full of games and play a lot.

We also love it play a lot on Friday night.
It’s a calm and stressful at the same time.
I would say it’s for ages 8 and up, not for op.

You can get it now for $13.33. Also the game Spendor. Which one is better to play with a 9 and 11 yr old? I don't want to have to think tons, but don't want something just based on luck, so something in-between... Also something not to complicated. I want my 9 year old to be able to win sometimes even if he's the youngest playing... We like games that move and have action. Open to other suggestions then those to if anyone has)

Thanks! Do they both seem to fit the description that I wrote in terms of type of games I'm looking for and ages? Are they similar or very different (if similar id stick to one)
