This week we review one of our favorite games, Survive: Escape from Atlantis (also known as Survive the Island in it's newest printing.) This game is SO easy to learn, teach, and play. If you have friends and family who are new to board gaming, this is the game to play! If you have well seasoned players who love games that are very confrontational, this is also the game you want to be playing.
