Patch Products is introducing Blurt! Blitz, a fast-paced word racing game with teams and an electronic timer. In Blurt! Blitz, two teams scramble to collect cards by describing words to their teammates who then have to blurt them out. Players may explain or act out the word however they wish and the electronic timer keeps the game full of suspense. Blurt! Blitz includes 1,000 cards and is for 4 or more players in teams. Toss Up! is an addictively dicey dice game for families, kids and young adults. In Toss Up!, players roll 10 dice that have green, yellow and red sides. Add up the points by rolling greens, but there's a catch: If on any roll the player doesn't get any greens and one or more reds, the turn is over.

Cameleon Stones is a spectacular, intelligent and innovative family game for anyone over the age of five. Designed for 2 to 6 players, Cameleon Stones is more than a memory game. Insight and strategy are equally as important. When playing, the lower stone automatically changes color to its "secret" color. If the two stones then have the same color the placement is good. If not the pile must be dismantled. The higher the piles get, the more information you can deduct from them. Each stone is unique. CrossTeaser is a brain-game that involves eight 3D crosses that can be moved over nine positions. Each cross has six colors. The aim of the game is to create a square of the same color. The movements are easy, but the solution is complex.
