Game Schooler Recommendation

Welcome To… is an excellent addition to any classroom and gets everyone involved. Although tabletop games and large classrooms don’t always get along, Welcome To… mends those fences. With this flip-n-write style game, the number of score sheets is the only limit you have. In Welcome To…, kids have to properly balance the risk of available numbers with the number of open houses. This constant jockeying keeps your students making tough decisions, but they are making decisions for themselves in the end. Welcome To… truly is a skill-builder!

Game Overview

Welcome To... plays like a roll-and-write dice game in which you mark results on a score-sheet...but without dice. Instead you flip cards from three piles to make three different action sets with both a house number and a corresponding action from which everyone chooses one. You use the number to fill in a house on your street in numerical order. Then you take the action to increase the point value of estates you build or score points at the end for building parks and pools. Players also have the option of taking actions to alter or duplicate their house numbers. And everyone is racing to be the first to complete public goals. There's lots to do and many paths to becoming the best suburban architect in Welcome To...!
