When I opened this review for a game called Hundreds of Horses, I expected to have a good laugh about an awful game. The first two sentences:

It’s like a less-complicated Dixit. And all horses.

However, the author is actually fairly positive! It's clearly not a "hobby game" and not meant for hobby gamers, but it works and can be fun. What other games fall into this category? I'll nominate:

• Happy Salmon. What's more fun than high fiving and running around a table?
• Spot It: Reverse spot the differences. Pure reflex game that can be explained in ten seconds
• Time's Up!: Describe something, describe it in one word, and charades. Practically always a hit
