Shire-Styled Board Games

The Hobit Yahtzee Edition Includes a Precious Bejewelled Chalice

What better way is there to celebrate the Christmas release of the long-awaited Middle Earth prologue than with The Hobbit Yahtzee? If you are a game night enthusiast, there probably is none. Instead of numbers, the dice are printed in an Elvish language. The Desolation of Smaug edition of the popular dice game comes with a faux chalice completely decked out in fake gemstones. The collector's item also adds a touch of luxury as the goblet has a pretend gold finish, compared to the regular red cups found in the classic version. The Hobbit Yahtzee also comes with a score pad, rules and pencil.

This board game is a playful way to combine your favorite fantasy novel with a nostalgic game. It also makes a fun holiday past-time for the entire family.
