For more than 30 years, Alias has been part of family life from the parents\u2019 first date to having their own children playing. Nothing brings generations together quite like Alias.<\/em><\/p>

Finland is best known for its legendary mobile phone brand Nokia, whose slogan was Connecting people. The same can be said about another Finnish legend, Alias. Alias is the original word explanation game designed and manufactured by Tactic Games in Pori, Finland. Alias plays a vital part in keeping families together, not just in Finland, but all around the world.<\/p>

The generation game<\/strong><\/p>

Alias is a game that travels from generation to generation. It\u2019s hard to imagine a game that promotes family values better than Alias. Adults play it with their friends as well as with their children, children and teenagers play it together, grandparents play it with their grandchildren \u2013 it\u2019s truly for everyone.<\/p>

When young adults start dating, Alias acts like a relationship barometer; you know that you have found a true connection when your partner guesses the right answers from the tiniest hints. The more a couple spends time together, the better they become at Alias, with inside clues that win the game. Also, if a couple reacts badly to losing Alias, there may be hard times ahead.<\/p>

When the couple settles down and has children, board games become a great way to fuel children\u2019s natural curiosity and expand their vocabulary. When children grow, they progress from concrete things to abstract concepts. Again Alias is there to boost both language and cognitive skills, not to forget the important social skills. \u00a0<\/p>

Beating the pandemic<\/strong><\/p>

Even before the pandemic hit, board games were experiencing a renaissance. During lockdowns, they became a lifeline that kept both children and adults together and engaged. Being deprived for so long of socializing, communicating and playing together has brought a deeper understanding of how important games like Alias are for our resilience.<\/p>

The seemingly trivial word explanation game holds important values for us all: coming together for social interaction, understanding others and being understood, and uniting as a team. All this is wrapped up in a fun and highly engaging package, served as a board game for everyone to enjoy.<\/p>

Now that life is normalizing again, it is time to encouraging children and adults to socialize more. The best way to do this is to organize a joyful board game night.<\/p>

Cut the screen time<\/strong><\/p>

Children and especially teens spend way too much time glued to their screens. Hours and hours spent on mobiles and consoles not only leads to physical problems, but also deprives children from social contacts.<\/p>

Board games and Alias in particular is a great way to get children active and interacting with the real world. Siblings who continuously argue with one another can suddenly find a common ground as a winning Alias team. You could think of Alias as the super nanny for the family.<\/p>

Alias gives a boost to growing cognitive and social skills while also increasing self-expression and understanding. It feeds children\u2019s imagination and engages them to vocalize their thoughts. A game night is also a safe place to talk about negative or scary things in life.<\/p>

Meet the Alias family<\/strong><\/p>

The Alias game concept is so ingeniously simple that anybody can play it. Therefore you need several variations of the game. There are specific gameboards for young children who can\u2019t read yet. There are also family and UK versions and of course the Original Alias.<\/p>

As there is an Alias for every player, one copy may not be enough \u2013 you need several to cater for different situations. But don\u2019t worry, every Alias bought is a good investment for happy times spent together with friends and family.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
