received it yet, but am impressed with your
friendly approach." - Anne

also in marketing and distribution and I am seldom
impressed with service levels and professionalism, but
you impress me!
I
played Settlers for the first time about two weeks ago
and did an internet search and came across your website.
I immediately placed my first order and intend to place
more on a regular basis.
People like you make me feel proud to be South African."

in time and we have played it more than 6 times in
less than a week !!
We use to play Civilisation on the computer, but

invited us about 8 months ago to play with
them....we were obviously hooked!!
The game was in perfect condition when it arrived."
- Marthe

seemed to be in order.
Thank you, your service was nice and prompt and your
correspondence was greatly appreciated." - Kestell
"I was referred to
your website by a friend of mine who also bought
the game from you and introduced me to it.
He was very pleased with the service and
strongly recommended that I should first look at
the website before going somewhere else.
I am glad I did."
- Stephan
"I have received
my order! Thanks very much for arranging to have
it here nice and early!
I heard about your

is addicted to the Settlers of Catan series.
Today is her birthday and her husband was unsure
as to what to get her when we thought extensions
to her game would be wonderful!" -Jessica

received my game this morning. That was
quick. My rpg group will try it out this
weekend. This will be our first German
stile game........"
"Just
played our first games of Settlers of
Catan and it was a bigger hit than
expected! My friends usually try to talk
me out of spending money but they
already asked me when i am getting some
expansions!" - Derrick
"Monopoly and chess simply didn’t do
it for me anymore. I love
strategy-type games that require
more than one braincell but games
like that are somewhat rare (I also
play Magic). So, I basically googled
for some of these ‘exotic’ games and
found you.Thanks again for good
service!" - Ewert
"It’s
arrived! I am absolutely over the
moon. Everything is intact –
excellent service. Thank you
Barbara. " - Clifford
"We
have received Settlers of Catan 2
September and we are so excited! We

friend who introduced us to
Settlers. One game and we were
hooked! We are inviting friends over
this weekend to play with us"
- Petro
“I
just received the game and are very excited to go home
tonight! Thank you for the very good and prompt service!
I went to Google and typed in St Petersburg game and
came upon your website. Learned the game from friends
who have a whole collection of "imported games", enjoyed
it so much and decided to get one ourselves.” - Mariska
C
“Your
website, follow-up and system of order and delivery is
very efficient in my experience so far and what I have
heard from another happy customer.” - Jayne D

is the second time that I have bought a game from your
site. I think it's great and convenient and your service
is spectacular!!!” - Anthony J

have played the Transformation Game many times and
decided to buy it for myself. My friends and myself use
it as a tool in personal growth.” - Anthony K
“I
got your website from a sticker on a Carcassonne game we
were given as a birthday present last year. We've played
the game a number of times and enjoy it, so the
expansions were a no-brainer.” - Neil T
“Just
a short note to again say thanks for the Battlelores,
and for delivering them. we have had much fun! If there
are extensions, expansions, additions, etc.... we will
most certainly take them!!” - David H

bought Carcasonne : The City from you previously and
almost everybody I played it with enjoyed it. Some of my

of Carcasonne from you. Keep up the good service.” -

and "catan expansion pack” - Tony S
“Thanks for the wonderful games, and excellent service.
We look forward to receiving these games!” - Mark F
“We
played Carcassonne with some friends this December
holiday. We were very impressed and enjoyed it very
much. It became out rainy day's solution. They gave us
the website and we visited it as soon as we got home.
And so it became my father's Christmas present for the
family. Thank you so much. We received the parcel today
- all things in good condition.” - Joanie VDW
“I
received the package - everything in good order. Since
then we've had far too little sleep as we've kept
playing Bohnanza and Settlers/Seafarers - both
definitely my favourites by now.” - Sakari K
“I
was referred to you by a recent customer (Theuns B) who
was exceptionally impressed with your service, so we

site. We will definitely order from you again!” - Sean
N
“I
received the package in record time and all is well with
the product.” - Eric G

to let you know that the game was delivered to my home a
little while ago. That's quite impressive! Thanks!” -
Tim L
“Thanks for the excellent service.” - John M
“I
specifically wanted to give you feedback on the website
and the service I received. It was an absolute pleasure
buying this game from you, the service was excellent,
quick and hassle free, and I would certainly buy other
games (I hear there's similar games to Settlers) from
this site again.” - Gerrit JVR
“I
already received my board game and our family enjoys the
game. It will be a winner in the school holidays. I
heard about your web site from a friend and with the
good service i got from you, i would definitely
recommend you to friends.” - Noelene C
“she
not only brought Catan, but the expansions and add-on's.
I was blown away as how simple the basic game was to
pick up and I soon had the family hooked even my wife
and even my 8 year old daughter.
Soon my parents were involved and playing as well, lets
say that in a week of the visit that my brother was here
we, like one of the previous testimonials featured, the
board was left out ready for the next game to be played.
I must admit from going from the "Old Classics" to this
was great however those games I would usually win at
"Ha......so superior was I"...until Catan entered my
house. I have only to date won one game and have been
beaten relentlessly by my family the balance of the
games even by 8 year old daughter.
Still the game is great and the variants that are
available via download from the web add a great deal of
variety to a game that already offers so much variation.
I found this game in PC version after hunting the web
for all the info on the Board game I could and I have
found 2 PC versions, 1 single payer and one networked,
both great to play when there is few of no one else to
play.
Keep up the great web site, I really enjoying coming in
to see what's new.” - Gordon J
“Thank you – I received the board game I ordered
promptly, and care had obviously been taken to prevent
it from being damaged in transit. I haven’t opened the
box (it’s actually a gift), but the bubble-wrap kept the
box in pristine condition.
I can’t tell you exactly how I first found your website,
but I think it was a South African only Google search
for board games. I was amazed to find that there was a
South African company selling all of the wonderful board
games that seem so readily available in other countries,
and I’ll definitely consider buying more games from you
guys at a later stage." - Shaun DV
“I played Catan at a friend's house over the
weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed it and asked him where
he got it. He directed me to your website and I
placed my order as soon as I had the chance.
Thanks for the newsletter. I'll take a look at it
and sign up if I like it.
As I mentioned above I thought Catan was great. I
loved the fact that the mechanics are so simple and
easy to learn and yet the complexities of strategy
and interaction are endless. It has a good balance
between tactics and luck, making it fun to play for
a people of different levels. I also like the fact
that it is quite possible for someone to come back
from a poor position so that a poor start doesn't
necessarily exclude you from the game. My biggest
complaint is probably that it is quite complex to
set up and that there are a lot of pieces that could
get lost. All in all a great game. I'm looking
forward to trying out some of the expansions in the
future.
Thanks for a great service, its refreshing to be
able to find less well known games (in South Africa
anyway) so easily." - Bevan T
“Hi Barbara, thank you for the quick service!” -
Alan G
“You guys are amazing. Best service ever. I can't
imagine a company in the U.S. going out of their way
to help like you have. I will recommend you to
everyone I know. Thanks again. Best of luck to you."
- Anthony W
“We received the game and we are amazed at the
quality of the game. We're still figuring the game
out, it's difficult but we're getting there. Thank
you very much for your kind service and we are
planning to buy two more games” - Nadia DV
“I am very satisfied with your service. I am a
collector of boardgames and came across your site
whilst web surfing for games, I first used
boardgamecompany.co.uk but they didn't reply on my
message and the costs of the shipping was way to
expensive, I'm very glad that we found your site and
we will decently be regular customers.” - Tiaan M
“It is wonderful to know that some people still know
what customer service means. Your offer was very
kind, thank you and once again thank you for your
very friendly and efficient service.” - Maria S
“I noticed your website while Googling Settlers of
Catan. Infact, it seems to be the only place that
knows about the game in South Africa. I was very
impressed with the fast delivery, nothing like
needing a game for the holidays and receiving it in
such a short preiod of time. Played a few games, and
enjoying it immensely, now trying to save up for
some of the expansions.
The ease of ordering from you and the prompt
delivery as well as your good prices has ensured
that I will gladly buy from you again.” - Mehnert E
“It was two hundred percent perfect though, thanks!!
Neatly wrapped and properly protected... I received
it in mint condition, and the timing was awesome!” -
Krige VR
“I
was very pleased to find your website, as I am often
disappointed by the poor variety available in
entertainment products (I can only speak for Cape Town).
I see with frustration what is available overseas that
cannot be sourced locally. Both the video game and board
game market is the same old crap over and over again.
Not just the same type of game, but the same type of
concept rehashed without adding anything new. I hope you
guys expand and are successful.” - Nicolas L, Cape Town
“i
was browsing the net to find out prices for ordering
puerto rico/ games from overseas, because they aren't
available locally, or so i thought. google led me
to you guys.” - J R
“This
is great service! I did not expect to hear from
you so soon, never mind finding out that the parcel had
been shipped!” - Harry F, Free State
“We
lo-ove both Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride.” - Kate T,
Jhb
“Personally I think board games are very underrated in
South Africa and people often don't buy the type of
games you are selling simply because, not only do they
not know that they are available, but often don't even
realize that games outside of Monopoly and Scrabble
actually exists. We have had hours of family fun with
the new games I have bought over the past year.
I
have received my "Ticket to Ride" game this morning and
it all looks to be fine. Thank you for the service and
interest from your side. I will purchase from you when I
am next looking for a game, unless it is something
specific that you do not have.” - Jason J
“We
have just arrived home after the Easter weekend, to find
that the game I ordered from you has already arrived!
Impressive service! We have already played
Settlers (some friends have a set they bought overseas)
and we think it's a great game (no violence and not too
competitive!)
Thank
you for the speedy delivery.” - Ken S, Cape Town
“Thank you for your excellent service, I received the
game today.” - Marion J
“Thank you so very much. I must say i have been
totally impressed by the service you have given me so
far and I will definitely use your sit again.” - Lynne
H, Jhb
“I
was looking around for a place to buy their games, and
was extremely excited when I found your site. I
tried finding a place to buy real games in SA late in
2003 and knew that it was close to impossible.
Buying directly from overseas websites was also
prohibitive because the freight charges is almost equal
to (or more than) the price of the game. This is
now the 5th game I bought from you (or on of your retail
partners) since October last year. Thanks for the effort
you guys made in getting me this.” - Christo VZ
“Thanks for the speedy delivery.” - Sascha, Cape Town
“THANK YOU sooooooo much for everything, I really
appreciate it!” - Sonja L, Pretoria
“Thank you for the speedy delivery. I received the board
games yesterday and all in perfect condition. My brother
told me about your website.....and I’m very glad he
did.” - Albert VS, Pretoria
“Just
a quickie to thank you guys for your incredibly swift
processing of my order for Doom. I ordered it on a
Thursday and received it, in perfect order, the next
Monday.” - Daniel S, Cape Town
“I
received the Warcraft expansion game in good condition
as usual. Thank you all very much for the speedy
delivery. The Warcraft expansion has made the game
everything that it should have been to start with,
making it an essential addition to the original. All
owners of Warcraft the board game should not hesitate in
obtaining the expansion. None will be disappointed.” -
Gavin W, KZN
“I
was on the Boardgamegeek site when I suddenly noticed a
little ad at the top of the page saying something about
boardgames in South Africa. My heart skipped a beat and
I immediately clicked on the ad. Imagine my joy when, lo
and behold, I saw not Monopoly, Risk or Cluedo, but
Settlers of Catan and Doom. All strength to you guys.” -
Daniel S, Cape Town
“It's
a super website. I interviewed Fabio on Radio 702
a couple of weeks ago and as an avid games player (all
my large family is!) got all the details from
him...Kate” - Kate T, Jhb
“My third
board game ordered from you, Memoir '44 arrived at work this
morning, packaged with your usual care, 100% safe, in mint
condition. I cannot stress enough how fantastic it is to see
this kind of service with a local web-based retailer. Every
time I order from you, the experience is so rewarding, I
immediately want to find another game to order! The fact
that the games are amazing is also, of course, an added
incentive. ;)” - Mark F
“I think
Maharaja is great. Very easy to get the hang of for a
game with it's level of depth.” - Wagner K
“Just to
say congrats to you lot on the latest NAG review. Bit more
substantial with the photos and all. Also, I see that
there's an add, nicely done, I think it is very nice of
boardgames.co.za to punt your resellers.” - Pierre VD
“Recently bought Puerto Rico from you guys. As to the
service - excellent! As to the game - superb! Simply
can't get enough of it. Luck no longer a factor (as is
the case with 95% of all other board games), which makes
winning even more rewarding. Most interesting part
thereof probably the in-game negotiations. Trying to
convince someone that his actions will be to his own
best advantage (when you're actually only trying to
further your own cause) has never been this much fun.” -
Louis DP
"Thank you
so much for providing such a professional experience! I
received the game here at work yesterday, no fuss, no delay,
smooth as silk. I am so pleased with the experience of
purchasing from you that I now intend to purchase War of the
Ring next ... really refreshing to find a local site that is
so efficient and organised" - Mark F

Ryan W, Randfontein
"I need to
congratulate you on excellent service. I received my game
this morning ... in future, I will definitely support
Boardgames.co.za. Your prices are the most competitive
around and as for the service, well simply amazing. Keep up
the good work!" - Jannie M, Pretoria
"Great
site, keep up the good work!" - Geo P, Potchefstroom
"Door-to-door delivery and at a price cheaper than I could
have obtained it locally. What more could I ask for!? Thanks
for an excellent service which will most definitely be used
in future." - Emmet M, CPT
" ... once
again thank you for a speedy and safe delivery ... Gang of
Four ... Awesome! The more one plays it the more one
realises that this game is very deep and the excitement
level is high. I would recommend it to anyone be they a
casual or serious gamer." - Gavin W, Durban
" ... thank you for your prompt and efficient delivery of
the game ... You will hear from me in the future as I order
more games. Until then keep up the good work. The price of
games is a real killer these days so it is nice to see
someone making an effort to keep the costs down." - Gavin W,
Durban
"I really
enjoy PC games, so buying Carcassonne was out of my comfort
zone - almost like choosing to send a letter using the post
box on the corner. However! - once getting into it, the pin
dropped - this is something fun that friends and family can
do TOGETHER - and it's not just the same old bored games -
Carcassonne is a game that you can get your teeth into -
thinking, strategising and having great fun - the family is
totally immersed in the times of olde!" - Tony D, Jhb
"Thanks for
bringing this one in (War of the Ring)- it is a brilliant
strategy / wargame and is thoroughly recommended." - Pierre
vD, Jhb
Memoir '44
- "Absolutely brilliant. Margs and I tried it out last night
and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I was surprised, as
Margs is not really interested in war 'stuff', but she
proved to be quite the strategist. I can really recommend
this game - it is not rules-heavy, is quick to learn and
play.
The play of cards allow for some nice 'ebb and flow' and
surprises. What I also enjoyed about Memoir '44 is that
there was not a steep learning curve - a read through the
rules and that was it. No going back to recheck, no rule
misunderstandings - here the terrain cards helped a lot.
Off course, the fact that it had a whole bunch of bits is
also helpful - the little infantry, tanks and artillery
pieces make a difference to just 'pushing counters'. And
then it makes it much more fun to make the accompanying
noises - grenades exploding, gunfire etc (yes, we are sad ;)
).
Great game, thanks for bringing it in - it was an excellent
investment." - Pierre vD, Jhb
"Margs and
I finally got around to playing Runebound, and we both love
it. Yip - my wife is absolutely crazy about it. She loves
the building up of the character, and the ebb and flow of
the game. I didn't think she would enjoy it as much as she
did, although I should have known - we both love PC RPG's.
Runebound is pretty much becoming a nightly institution - we
have to play a game or two (as an aside, the games tend to
be close - one of the games ended with a one-hex difference
in movement deciding the winner).
I am also very impressed with the components and board of
Runebound. There's a lot of bits and pieces, all serving a
purpose. The game has simple rules (6 pages in total) with a
number of additional rules (advanced and homegrown)
available on the net. So, the growth and continued interest
potential of the game is there.
I can hardly wait for the expansions for Runebound to arrive
in South Africa - I will definitely be investing in them. It
was money well spent. As for service, I do not think that I
ever had better service from a company" - Pierre vD, Jhb
"Dear
Boardgames Crew ... I want to thank you for putting together
a fabulous website and even more for the penetrating and
useful information that your newsletter provides me with. I
have seen many newsletters in my time and most are a bit
fluffy to say the least. Don't let your high standards drop
in future editions. Maybe you might want to subscribe to my
water gardening newsletter here at
http://www.practical-water-gardens.com. Hope you sell
lots this Christmas" - Tony R, Jhb
"the
service and speed of delivery was impeccable. I would
definitely recommend gamers purchase from your store" -
David D, Welkom
"Puerto Rico is a game that
allows each and every one of my family and friends to have
their own strategy to win the game, however it requires all
of us to adjust our tactics to take into account what the
others do. We would not have a picnic without our Puerto
Rico game with us. It is addictive, it is fun and it is the
best game I have played in years. You cannot compare it to
any of the original board games such as Monopoly or
30-Seconds. This game requires my full attention at all
times as my strategy changes several times throughout the
game as other players change theirs. We have played more
than 40 games already and I've never had the same strategy.
This game is a must for anybody who loves spending time with
friends and family and loves to be competitive" - Dennis K,
Jhb
"I recently purchased a copy
of Carcassonne, and it's been worth every penny. The
instructions are easy to follow (we were playing inside 20
minutes of opening the box), the quality is top class, and
it's loads of fun! Play it a couple of times, and the
importance of strategy becomes evident. Play it a bit more,
and you start figuring out how to counter your opponents'
strategies at the same time." - John G, Jhb
"Carcassonne is a dynamic game
that the whole family enjoys. With the constant changing
landscape and additional tiles that can be added to your
collection, the same game never becomes a dust covered back
of the cupboard board game." - Adrian M, Jhb
“A well-made and challenging
game that completely held my interest from the first minute
right to the end of the game! Playing Puerto Rico was a real
blast, I really got into it. The best part is when you get
to watch your opponents get their butts kicked! This game
makes Monopoly look like watching grass grow!" - Gary K, Jhb
“When I was a kid, I always
figured I would make a superb millionaire land baron.
Carcassonne proves me right - JR Ewing has nothing on me!!
You gotta have your strategy right and be able to see the
big picture to play this!!" - Gary K, Jhb
"Puerto Rico is a cleverly
balanced game, dependant on timing that I really look
forward to playing again (and again)!" - Michael, P.E.
"Thank you for introducing me
to Carcassonne. Since we bought this game, my wife and I,
have been playing it every night. If you told me two weeks
ago that Anne and I would be playing a board game every
night when we get home, I would not have believed you.
Carcassonne is one of those rare board games that is easy to
understand and easy to play. On average it takes us about 45
minutes to play a game. It is SO much fun. I’m a dedicated
computer gamer and never in my wildest dreams did I think
that I would enjoy a board game as much as I have done with
Carcassonne. This is definitely worth every cent that I paid
for this game. It is easy to play, it is fast, it has
strategy, and most important of all….my wife kicks my butt
in this game. Once again, thank you for bringing this
product to South Africa. In my humble opinion, every
household in South Africa should have a copy of Carcassonne
in the house." - Corne DP, Pretoria
"After everything I read about
Settlers it had a lot to live up to. And it didn't fail
once.
Everyone I've played this with has liked it. From the family
to the people who play more complex games it seems settlers
has an extremely wide appeal.
I have played maybe over 50 games of it so far. So often
when we play games it gets taken out first and we just never
put it away until the early hours of the morning arrive.
Normally we would play about 5 to 7 games an evening and
tomorrow evening everyone just wants to play again.
The game is extremely easy to teach. When you are setting up
the board everyone remarks how complicated it looks. About 5
minutes later they go:'This is really easy'.
Yet the game really does have depth and strategy. The
variable setup makes every game different meaning that
strategies that worked in the last game will not necessarily
work again this game. You also need to adapt depending on
what others are doing.
Above all else Settlers is high in fun factor. The main
reason it gets played so much is because everyone enjoys
playing it. This could be due to the high amount of player
interaction from the trading and the robber.
The game also has a fair amount of luck. This is enough so
that everyone stands a chance. The weaker players will also
win once in a while. And it is small enough so that the game
does not feel like a gamble. Strategy is important and if
you win it feels like you earned it through good play.
This game I recommend to anyone. If you only ever buy one
German board game I think Settlers of Catan should be it." -
Wagner K, Pretoria
"Lord of the Rings: The
confrontation has to be my favourite game at the moment.
From Gandalf blasting his way through the forces of evil to
Sam at his bravest protecting Frodo from Sauron's minions
this really does feel just like the books/movies. Apart from
the theme the game-play is well balanced between two totally
different sides. It feels like a mixture between Chess and
Poker, plays fast and I always want to play "just one more
game"." - Wagner K, Pretoria
"Puerto Rico's mechanics are
very simple to understand. It is on the other side also
incredible deep. New strategies emerge all the time. I have
played it a lot and will still be playing it for a long
time. Online there is a lot of hype about this game. It is
definitely there for good reason." - Wagner K, Pretoria
"Carcassonne is currently my
lite game. It is the game that I play with family and
friends who aren't as serious about games as I am. The game
has a lot of subtle tactics. It plays very differently
depending on the number of players. Most people I have
played this with have enjoyed it." - Wagner K, Pretoria
"Puerto Rico is a fascinating
mix of strategy and business common sense – a great way to
involve the family in the reality of life, since what seems
to be the goal is not what you think it is. The game is fun
to play and requires just enough thinking to allow you to
become involved without excluding anyone from the fun.
Thoroughly enjoyable, esp. after the first glass of wine
:-)" - Shane VJ, Jhb
"Carcassonne and Puerto Rico
both looked quite intriguing and different to anything else
that we were used to playing. Carcassonne is a game that can
be enjoyed by everyone, it's quick to understand, quick to
play and really clever the way it's been designed. Even a 3
year old had fun matching the blocks. Puerto Rico requires a
bit more time to understand, but the instructions are clear
and provide a step by step guide that allows you to play and
learn at the same time. The game also lasts a while, which
makes it great for a winter's evening in front of the fire.
Once again, very cleverly constructed. They have both been
well worth the purchase!" - Moira C, Jhb
