Where do you get kings of Israel and king Solomon etc.?
Sound like great games but I never heard of them.
I wouldn’t necessarily recommend them over other games, as your first
“modern games,” or even at all in some cases. Also, although the themes
might sound appealing, be aware that these games were not created by
frum Jews.
Availability:
Kings of Israel – Amazon, BoardGameBliss
Kingdom of Solomon (newer printing titled “Wisdom of Solomon”) – Amazon, BoardGameBliss
QuestZion (The Game of Israel) – Amazon
Nehemiah – BoardGameBliss
Promised Land: 1250-587 BC – Out of print, not commercially available.
Package Has Arrived – I was surprised to find that this is still in print. It’s in Hebrew,
and it’s not a modern design at all, bit if you’re interested, Google “משחק “חבילה הגיע.
A Reign of Missiles – Directly from the manufacturer’s website.
The Settlers of Canaan (based on Settlers of Catan) – Out of print. eBay has lower prices
than Amazon. (I remember this one as being incorrect in some aspects – perhaps the
timing of the conquest of Yerushalayim? Something like that, anyway.)
