A Beary Simple Wargame made it out of the box today. My daughter set out the terrain while I cleaned up lunch and we played while the boys took their naps. I didn’t grab any other pics but the game featured both armies moving up to the center and slugging it out. Her artillery scored some good shots from range early. My general (grenadier caps) failed to rally the scared bears which made my counterattack much less effective. Eventually, her cavalry were able to team with the line infantry and break my lines from the flanks.
The game was easy enough for a clever 6 year old to understand and make strategic decisions. She managed her turns independently, but we did discuss advantages of potential attacks before committing. She did the addition of advantages and subtraction of the dice. Well count it as education.
