Finding games in the United States can be difficult. Chain toy stores may carry many traditional games like Clue, Life, or Monopoly but are not likely to carry most, if not all, of the games mentioned here. The first place to start is your local Yellow Pages. Look under "games" for specialty game stores or hobby shops that carry games in your area. Games are about 20% more expensive in these stores than purchasing online, but they can be a valuable resource for more information and gaming events in your community.

I have had no problem ordering games from online sources. The best web sites for ordering games are Funagain Games (www.funagain.com), Boulder Games (www.bouldergames.com), and FairPlay Games (www.fairplaygames.com). We cannot, of course, guarantee that you will be completely satisfied with any of these services. I have, however, ordered many times from both Funagain and Boulder and have found them efficient and friendly. Funagain is a wonderful resource because its website is by far the best of the three, including reviews, photos, and summaries of all the games they carry. We provide links to the Funagain pages for each of the games we review here.
