Hi Matt,

Pandemic, Ravine, and Forbidden Desert, Forbidden Island, or Forbidden Jungle might work for your teacher. (Pandemic and Forbidden Desert/Island/Jungle are cooperative games).

Hope this helps!

I just had a teacher ask for a survival board game.  Being the serious person I am (please, stop laughing), I have no time for games and was wondering if anyone has any ideas.

I've looked at some lists on line and I have no idea how to judge them.

I think Stratego is only for two people and Risk would take too long (they are freshmen and need to complete this before they graduate).

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Have a good friday,
Matt

Dr. Mortimer looked strangely at us for an instant, and his voice sank almost to a whisper as he answered.

“Mr. Holmes, they were the footprints of a gigantic hound!”
