A classic! December 10, 2008 BJ (Florida) Just like we used to play, new vamped up colors, new pegs to move, but the same classic game. We have lost the little rubber feet pegs that are inserted into the bottom of the game board. But even without them, the game works great.
Fun Game July 8, 2008 Rob (Goldsboro, NC, United States) The game is a fun to play, but my kids (6 and 3 years old) didn't quite get it. The board quality is pretty low (just a sheet of molded plastic over a piece of cardboard), and there is no place to hold the pieces besides the flimsy box the game comes in. I don't expect the pieces to stay with the board very long, and will probably have to use a ziploc or something to keep it all together.
The game itself is fun. My 3 year old could push down the popper herself with some effort, and that was her favorite part of the game. I agree with others that younger kids will get frustrated not rolling a 6 to get a piece out of home. I allowed them 2-3 pops to give them a chance to play. The game is more fun with more people, but that also increases the chance of sending someone back to start. We tried to make it fun, but the kids weren't real happy about getting sent back after so much time trying to get out.
I'd recommend it to others, but would think it more fun for 7-12 years old or so.
I always love this game February 23, 2008 N. AlShawa This is one of my favorite games. I love to play it with my husband, family and friends (its more fun when 4 people play). I love to chase people and send them back home. You need to be conscious not to be send back home... watch every move by yourself and other players. Make correct decision (moves)..some mistakes may cause you to lose.. You also need luck. The quality of this game is just ok not great (good enough to play).
Very Fun January 20, 2008 J. Hicks My 5 year-old son loved this game. It also has taught him how to play games by the rules and helped with his counting.
My kids don't get into Trouble. December 24, 2007 lighten_up_already2 (Kirkland, WA USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
My two boys received this game as a gift a few days ago, and I was rather happy about that because I was thinking of buying this game for them myself.
Well, it proved to be too much of a logical leap from the simple board games my young boys have played to date to this beginning level strategy game. Your milage may vary on this point, but two aspects of this game that didn't help were:
First, the "Pop-o-matic" takes considerable force to operate. My five year old had to put his full 50lb body weight onto it just to get it to work, and it was difficult for my old son to operate too.
Second, the "have to roll a six to get to start" rule is stupid. You just wait forever to get to even start to play. We changed the rule so you can start with either a six or a one, and that helped a little bit.
Sadly, my kids lost interest after about 10 minutes. So, another unloved game in the game pile.
