![]() There are four ways you can get to Storia Under the Bed, Behind the Bookshelf, Out the Window, or Into the Closet. I told them a little about the land of Storia, which is the magical realm only children can go to and no residents can leave (so no fear of those creatures you might meet coming back into the real world). I told her I was the Guide and that I was going to guide them on their adventure but they could go and do whatever they could imagine. Olivia asked me several times, “Daddy, who are you going to be?”. ![]() It was very rules light, but for the girls, that didn’t matter they just wanted to go on an adventure. Daddy was wrong!įor my little ones I didn’t use the character sheets or stats. I never felt they were really old enough to understand it, let alone enjoy it. They’d seen the box multiple times in my game room and often asked about it. They had been begging me for days to finally dig into the box for No Thank you, Evil that I had Kickstarted quite a while ago. In our game, they could really be whoever they wanted. Clara was a spy quick, smart, deadly, and clever, which was interesting to me considering how loud and outgoing Clara is and how reserved Olivia tends to be. Olivia was a monster brave, scary, strong, but friendly. And when I say that, I mean that quite literally. They weren’t really themselves sitting around our dinner table. ![]() Well, “undivided” may be a little generous but considering they were actually listening to me and engaged, we’ll call it undivided. But on this night I had their undivided attention. They can barely sit through dinner and, unless some sort of screen is on, they’re usually wiggling in whatever furniture they happen to be situated, sometimes even flipped upside down. She enjoys books in her own way by looking at the pictures, asking about the colors, and imitating the animals. She won’t perform for you unless she’s in the mood and keeps her hugs tucked safely away only for the most special of people. Olivia, 3, is a bit quieter and more reserved. If you met her, you’d soon be her best friend. Clara loves to perform and be the center of attention dance, sing, tell jokes, and share stories. She can’t really read yet but she loves books. We played for about an hour, which is impressive considering the attention span of my 3 and 5 year old daughters. When I play with my girls, we used just one blank. They gain a descriptor and then a special ability. For younger players they are just a but as they grow and learn, the game grows with them. The players create simple sentences, the length of which is adjusted to match the age of the player. In this game each player creates a character based on a selection of descriptions which are designed to get their imagination fired up. ![]() No Thank You, Evil! Is a tabletop game focused on adventure and imagination. My two daughters, Clara and Olivia, gave me the big, pleading, eyes that only daughters can give and I told them we would play a short game of No Thank You, Evil! This is “the ENnie Award-Winning game of make-believe for creative kids and their families” made by Monte Cook Games. ![]()
