Games Night Guru is the work of two friends, Sam and Joe, who have a mutual passion for modern board and card games and wish to share it with the world. While there are many online resources for those already engrossed in this fast-growing hobby, the gurus felt that there wasn’t much to help new enthusiasts find their feet. This site is for those people, with a particular nod to family gamers. The useful nutshell guide covers four aspects of each game that may make it a must-have or a total no-no for the people you play with, be they friends or family, young or old.
