Dutch Blitz

If I could take a poll, I would bet that about 95% of you out there have never heard of this game. That is, unless you're #1 Amish or #2 belong to my family! We are huge "game players" and definitely enjoy some good laughs when our competitive sides come out. Dutch Blitz is by far my favorite.... and that's probably because I always win! It's fast, energetic and super fun and if you need a new game recommendation - this is it!

Here's a little background -
Dutch Blitz was the brainchild of Werner Ernst George Muller, a German immigrant and optometrist who thought the game might help his children more easily learn about colors and numbers. We can’t tell you whether or not Dutch Blitz accomplished that goal. All we know is that, somewhere along the line, Muller’s game captured the imaginations of gamers throughout Eastern and Central Pennsylvania. It’s kind of like solitaire. But with multiple players. And a lot more speed. And color. And fun. Dutch Blitz demands players think fast and act fast. It also demands that they keep an eye on their competition. That’s why we think Dutch Blitz is most perfect party card game ever invented. We’re pretty sure some of our fans would agree.

Last night my brother and I joined my parents at their house for dinner and a good 'ole friendly re-match of one of our favorite games. Well, maybe not so "friendly" as we're extremely competitive, but I sure did take the cake. Winning by a land slide, I'll now get to rub in my score until the next game night!
