Discover this great strategy game, Kingsburg. An excerpt from the game manufacturer – Fantasy Flight Games describes the game as:
“Combining many of the best elements of European and American board game design styles, Kingsburg has been praised for its clever use of dice and its high level of player interaction. Though dice-rolling is a significant mechanic of the game, the presence of luck never feels arbitrary or excessive. Rather, the game encourages players to apply their dice rolls strategically, in ways that simultaneously benefit themselves and vex their opponents. And while a card-drawing mechanic determines the nature and difficulty of yearly NPC enemies (these enemies must be faced by each player individually, and failure against them can cause major setbacks), players can “scout the draw” in advance by influencing the right advisor. This means that players who have devoted resources to acquiring this valuable intelligence can adequately prepare for the coming onslaught while their opponents languish in ignorance… or they can bluff, exaggerating the threat and compelling their opponents to overspend!”
Another fun game just in is Martian Dice where you Swoop, Scoop, and Score! You are the Martians coming to earth to abduct Humans, Cows, and Chickens. 
An excerpt from Oregon Lives’s article covering Emily and how she invented this fun new game
“On her 12th birthday this year, Emily Ehlers, a seventh-grader at West Sylvan Middle School, received a mysterious package from Massachusetts.
“I had a small suspicion that it was my game, so I opened it.” She beams, the delight of the moment still evident.
Inside the package was a game, Mermaid Beach. She had dreamed up the ocean-themed card game when she was in third grade. Four years later there it was, professionally produced and packaged by Gamewright, maker of popular family games like Slamwich, Rat-a-Tat Cat and Sleeping Queens. She was officially a game inventor.”“Emily and her family spent her third-grade year sailing a boat down the East Coast of the United States and on to the Bahamas. She and her brothers, Jake and Drew, were home-schooled for the year. They spent time playing games, including Sleeping Queens, Emily’s favorite. “When I found out it was invented by a girl, I wanted to do that too,” she says.”
