This reference book takes readers on a fun adventure filled with games that Filipinos-both young and young at heart--love to play. The book covers both old games and modern ones, games that can be enjoyed with friends and loved-ones whether outside or inside the home, with easy-to-follow mechanics that come with colorful images. Among the topics discussed in the book are:
- traditional games passed on from generation to generation of Filipinos kids;
- fun games best played outside the home;
- indoor games that are just as fun to play;
- colorful games enjoyed by entire communities during fiestas;
- handmade toys and trinkets that bring joy to their makers;
- homegrown tabletoP games; and
- online gaming apps by Filipino developers.
Aside from a detailed description and step-by-step procedures on how to play each game, an added feature is Game, which gives little-known information about the game plus tips and techniques on how best to play it and win.

How can I reduce my shipping fee?
One important thing to know is that we do not make any profit on shipping. We simply charge what our couriers charge us. Because we ship in bulk, we often receive discounted rates, and we pass those savings directly on to you. Our goal is always to get your books to you as affordably and responsibly as possible.
If you are ever unsure which option to choose, or if timing matters for a specific order, please reach out. We're happy to help.
