You’ve been Sentenced! word game receives Dad Does Approved Award

PRLog (Press Release) - May 27, 2011 - Wilmington, Delaware, May 27, 2011 – The You’ve been Sentenced! word game recently received a Dad Does Approved Award in the toys and games category. Dad Does is a community where dads discuss life, use products and write insightful reviews. According to Dad Does, “Dad’s do the same things that ‘regular people’ do, but as Dad we have slightly different priorities and concerns – we see everything we do through a ‘dad lens.’”

According to Dad Does, “Playing You’ve Been Sentenced! and the topic specific Add-On Decks is sort of like playing Trivial Pursuit meets MadLibs…You’ve Been Sentenced! is one of those simple games that just works on all levels.  The NASA Space Terminology Add-On Deck is great for kids interested in space and they [McNeill Designs] also make a number of other Add-On Decks in other categories…”
