Daughter loves it. +4234 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I got this as a gift for my brother because he loves Fluxx and loves Monty Python. We played it as a family and it was great!! The references were absolutely hilarious and made it that much more fun. My brother hates when the Keepers have abilities, so it's good that very few here had them. He was fine with the number of Keeper abilities. There were kind of a lot of creepers though. More than any other version I've played. But it's okay, they were funny too. Highly recommend to Fluxx lovers who also love Monty Python! +8855 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My two year old granddaughter loves music and loves playing her bongo drum. It's colorful, well-made and has a nice sound. I highly recommend it for young music makers. +233 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have Drizzt and enjoy playing it. Even our younger kids are able to join in. (They are ages 7 & 5). We haven't cracked this one open yet (Father's Day gift), but expect nothing less than an amazing fun time. + +30-60 minutes to play (More like 60 with newbies, 30 with some experience) + + +8711 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It was smaller than I thought but my kid loves it. +The advanced rules cater to players interested in a more technical experience. In this mode, car damage must be monitored across multiple categories, much more care must be taken in every respect, and a weather element is added. Racers can set up their cars as they see fit before every event. +1816 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This Elf was a hit at our house. Had a lot of fun with the kids with him! + +Each of the players (up to 5) plays one of the hobbits from the books (including Fatty Bolger, who is included in the game even though he was left out of the recent movies). The goal is for the hobbits to trek the one ring to Mt. Doom before Sauron can claim it as his own. To do so, players will need to work together to draw and play cards allowing them to move through each section of the story successfully. While doing so, they will often draw cards or run into scenarios in which Sauron will draw closer to victory. There is a bit of luck and a good deal of strategy involved. +- Figurines are kinda cheesy and a pain in the but to ---> break from the mold ---> Sand down rough edges ---> Glue together ---> Paint matte black ---> Final painting. BUT once all that is done they look sharp -- except the characters for some reason they're detail is meh. +1549 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Perfect +9251 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Had to return this drum due to an overwhelming chemical odor. I won't be giving my small child a drum off-gassing stinky chemicals, thanks. Off to look for a more responsibly manufactured product. + +It's a pretty hard game to master even on the easy level, but you can argue that the same can be said about games like Pandemic and Forbidden Desert. But the game in itself is pretty fun and the challenge is one you really want to defeat. And once you're comfortable with the easy level of difficulty, things just get worse at higher difficulties - and that's just how the game works. +Pathfinder: A 64-page fully-bounded book with high-grade, full-color pages. Like the Starter Set, this also includes a single-player choose-your-own adventure. However, this only encompasses the first eight pages, as opposed to the entire 32 page-booklet of 4E. You can only play through the adventure as a basic fighter (as opposed to branching off so you can play a variety of classes) but this turns out to be an asset here. As a first-time player, you are actually told a story, one of a simple citizen from a town called Sandpoint called forth from the mayor to stop a menacing foe that is lurking in a dungeon. You learn the basics of rolling dice for attacks and skill checks, and encounter some dangerous traps and a formidable final foe. It's a simple scenario that actually hooks you in with a little bit of adrenaline. Shakespeare it's not, but it definitely hooks the reader to learn more. +6554 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 fun + +1743 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 A lot of money for a felt elf and a book but the kids love it. If you've never done elf on the shelf I'd recommend reading the book and preparing your story for the elfs entrance before introducing it to your kids. I almost screwed it up. My 3 year old doesn't quite get it yet but my 9 year old loves looking for him every morning. +2925 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our youngest grandson just turned two and is a HUGE "five little monkeys" fan. He's been watching different versions of the song on YouTube for the past 6 months and is pretty much addicted to them - ha. His latest trick is to quickly glance around whatever room he happens to be in, find something to climb up on, and then start singing the song and jumping off whatever he climbed up on at the appropriate moment. Of course he climbs right back up because he has to play the part of all FIVE monkeys, naturally! +3930 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Everything was as promised. Thanks! +I was glad there was a classic version available, but I didn't remember the ice cream cone in the head. I looked it up and saw that the ice cream came along in 2004; that's pretty late to be "classic." I wish it was exactly like the one I had as a kid. I wonder why companies keep making "classic" and "retro" editions of games and toys but including changes that make the game or toy not the way it was. It's still better than playing on one of the new boards, but the fake parts in the classic/retro games are sad reminders that we may never again play the same games we played as kids. +1796 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 we love it +5551 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fluxx is such a great little game - portable and easy to learn, and the constantly changing factor keeps it always exciting. +The cards are a thick, glossy cardstock - easy to clean if they get dirty. They need a rubberband to hold them together when you put them away. I'm surprised the manufacturer didn't provide something for it as they scatter all over the box if you don't. + +7590 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 always a family favorite +6658 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game. My daughter and I play this a good bit. + +The rule that allows you to take additional cards, as long as you keep up your pirate accent is my favorite, followed closely by the Captain's hat, that requires people to call you Captain. +2083 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 My 4 year old who is not easily scared was just creeped out by the concept and literally told me that the elf looked "creepy". He wouldn't have anything to do with it after that so for us it was useless. I agree the doll is kinda creepy just chilling around your house and "leaving in the night to report to santa". +He has been dragged, rolled over by her doll carriage, sat upon, slept on, pulled on (ears, tail, etc.) and he seems to be withstanding the abuse very well! +And that's why the stars fall off this review. +The words included are great for not only Haikus, but poems and phrases of all sorts. +A sturdily made four panel landscape screen. +I'm an experienced GM and I liked the look of it all so much I bought the set from my Local Friendly Game Store. I'm going to run the contents for people too. +1928 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Good price and my kid loves it. +2975 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great monkey toys. Very cute design and clothes. My daughter enjoys playing with these +6049 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great racing game +4435 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 love it +6398 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love the Dilbert comics, and one of my favorites is the pointy-haired boss. So I couldn't resist ordering this one. I find it to be well made, with great detailing. +1909 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is fun, I remember having these as a kid, +9399 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Very cheaply made, little cards are hard to pick up, but overall a fun game and my son (now 7yo) still likes to play it + +2889 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What child doesn't relate to precious little Llama? He gets cranky shopping, forgets to share, misses his mama, but he's so sweet when Mama gently reminds his how much she loves him and gets him back on track! So fun to share these rhyming stories with my granddaughters! The doll is a great tool to remind us of details as we retell the story! + +839 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A great game to have in your game collection! This game is a classic, loved by many. All the friends I've introduced this game to always request to play it again on our game nights, so I'd say it's a hit. Very fun, an interesting variety of strategy to choose form, and fun game board. +3590 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Arrived on time and as advertised +3723 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I am a fanboy of both Star Wars and Fantasy Flight, so I have been eagerly waiting for this one. +-giant box for small row of cards without an insert- as a stand alone, you'll be holding the entire stack of cards easily in one hand so the packaging was a little off, however as you add more story packs, you'll fill up the box easily, but it would really benefit from a vacuum molded liner +8684 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fast shipping. My child will love it. +6699 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Christmas gift for a child and she love it. +It is, all in all, an indispensable book for the GM. +11 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 This is indeed a small book. This particular ROBOT sticker book was at best, OK. +509 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My grandson is in kindergarten so this turned out to be just a bit premature for him - the hint words on the cards were just confusing to him - but he loved keeping score with the "coins" . I think I'll put the game away until he's in 1st grade and knows how to spell more words - and am sure it'll be a hit then. +9334 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 3 year old loooooves this drum. A frien who is a professional musician also commented "wow, this is a REAL drum" +7107 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 PROS: +7739 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 the blocks are large, colorful, and kids of all ages lover them. + +I think it will turn out to be a good introduction to math tool in coming months. + +736 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We just discovered this game at a game night event last month and I had a gift card so decided to order it. We LOVE it! My 11-year-old son and I play together and really enjoy it. It's not too complicated but does require some planning so you don't lose too many points at the end. I want the rest of the versions now! +3117 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My daughter has the same hippo but in the small size. She was just so happy to have a second and much bigger flatopotamus. The hippo is very soft and perfect for snuggling. + +9308 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun toy and bright colors. Well made. We just drew a target on the sidewalk with chalk and played a game. Easy to pack for travel. +9491 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I guess it's the theme, but I like this game alot more than I should. It is definitely a kid's game, and it isn't something I would play with just grown-ups, but still. I like finding all the little treasures. My six-year-old son has Pokemon cards, Rat-A-Tat-Cat, Guess the Pokemon Game, Castle Keep, Sorry Sliders, Incan Gold, and this game. Of all of them, The Secret Door is my favorite. The treasure and clock cards are tiny and thin, and the board is pretty small, so if you need top of the line components you might want to steer clear. +2810 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 adorable and great to have with books! +2154 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 good +9222 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this for my 2 1/2 yrs old son... He loves it. He learned the concept of speed... Slow vs fast. As well as fitting the gears together. Even my 4 months old son loves watching the gears turning. +7747 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is a classic! I had to get it for my children so they could experience the same joys I had as a child playing it. This game is fun for all ages. I would highly recommend it to anyone! + +5229 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very satisfied with this and the fast shipping with Amazon Prime. +Would not buy another - rather look for a vintage/ better made one. +5061 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 It's a good board game. +9971 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Put this out in the hall at my son's first bday, and all the kids LOVED it, walkers and crawlers alike. It folds down easily enough to take it to a friend's house, and even more sensitive kids aren't afraid to get inside since it's transparent. Even my 15 year old cat likes to play in it. The velcro for the storage straps can get caught on the walls of the tunnel if it is latched carefully, but so far no holes. + +4813 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Organs get covered in dirt and hair quickly but they wash clean very easily too. My 3 year old LOVES this set! + +1722 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our three year old twins are getting old enough where they are starting to understand certain concepts so we thought this Christmas would be the perfect year to purchase an Elf on the Shelf. They loved it and had so much fun with it! I believe Elf on the Shelf is a relatively new tradition but I love the look of the scout elf because he has the look of a 1950s figurine. Included in the very sturdy and reusable box is the elf and a colorful, hardcover storybook which explains in a rhyming, storytelling manner how to use the Elf on the Shelf. The elf itself is approximately 13 inches tall, fully-extended, and his outfit feels like it is made of a felt-like material. His body is stuffed with plastic pellets and his head is made of hard plastic with nicely painted-on facial features. He doesn't sit very well by himself but there are plenty of ways to prop him up. His hands are also stitched together which makes it fun to dangle him from a doorknob, chandelier, or any other fun spot you can think of! +My 6 year old enjoys playing it too! +2845 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Too cute, my little one loves it. + + +This game is Club Fantasci Certified! + + +4841 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love +No extra functionality, just high quality basic mouses. +9924 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We loved this experience so much and we are already planning on doing it again next year! All around an amazing experience for kids and adults. + +5667 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fluxx with pirate: what's not to love? Like the original fluxx the game can be taught in thirty seconds. The game of ever changing rules now with a pirate theme. Pirate goals, pirate keepers, and pirate rules (talk like a pirate is the best). If you love causal games for the whole family and pirates, this game is for you. +7277 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The game is so fun and easy to play with adults and older kids. We played it on Thanksgiving and while it gets kind of loud - we all had a blast! I really like this game because it's easy to play with kids that want to play games that arent' baby games. But so many games are starting to have adult themes. This was fun. +6649 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We love his game. My son loves this game and I love this game. You can literally take this with you anywhere, and occupy yourself for hours. They do have an app now for this game, but I still enjoy playing the material one. Once you master all of the levels, then you can go back and try to complete each level in less steps. It really does require a lot of visual-spacial planning and thinking. You have to rearrange the cars in your mind. If you're looking for a fun game for children and adults alike, especially one that exercises your brain, then this is a home run. It's one of our favorites. It also encourages solitary play, which is a very important skill for kids. I highly recommend this. +5156 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We got this for our kindergarten as a game we could play as a family and it has not disappointed! The first read thru the rules seemed a little complicated but by the end of the first game our son could play on his own. However, it was not to simple for grown ups. This can definitely be played with a lot of strategy as well. Neither my husband nor I were bored. It was challenging and fun for all of us. I am confident that we will be able to play this game for a long time. We are all excited for this weekends game night so that we can play it again! +6770 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Great solo toy but also one you can play with your kid. The puzzles are well-scaffolded. +3312 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 as expected and delivered - Thanks! +9756 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This product was purchased as a Christmas gift. The receipent of the product liked it. I was happy with my purchase. +3745 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Amazing game, one of the all time best, but it is frustrating that there are only single copies of some cards when decks can have 3 copies of cards. That means that if you enjoy the game and want to play competitively in tournaments, you'll have to buy 3 copies of the game. Most players won't play competitively, obviously, but it is a small but significant oversight in an otherwise flaweless game. +1551 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Exactly as pictured. My only problem is I wish the manufacturer would make the elf have wires in its arms and legs so that he can be positioned in any way as I always thought that was the case anyhow... it wouldn't be hard to do either. +8451 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The first time we played this game, 6 people (grown adults) were in tears laughing at the absurdity of some of our responses! We continued in this gasping for air style of play for about 3 more rounds before we calmed down enough to get into more of the subtleties of the game. It is at times hilarious, thought provoking and insightful of those you play with. How funny or insightful depends on the players' effort, but if you are truly trying to win, you'll be surprised how many people you can fool with bogus phrase endings. I highly recommend this game! +7402 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very fun game +2612 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This was a great gift for my 10 year old granddaughter. She is very creative and loves this book. + +It is amusing, and challenging. But with a lot of new players, can drag on a bit, if people don't fully understand the strategy. A full game can take two hours if you have 8 people, many of whom have never played it before. This can cause the game to get a little...tiresome, and is best if enough people know what to do and can plan ahead of time (This is true for all board games of this type). +4871 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I had my eye on these books for about a year now. I had stumbled upon them here on Amazon and just thought they were so cool. +8102 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Grandson present + + +9688 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Nice learning toy! +7632 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great +6465 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 7yr old son received this for Christmas - but my husband got hooked on it first....and then our 5yr old....so it's been a great family game. It's small enough to pack in my messenger bag and whip out at restaurants, etc when we have time to kill. Very fun, challenging, and addicting!! +3538 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great. +2. No board needed, just a flat surface +4497 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What a simple concept and so much fun - our family loves this game! This is a fun gift for adult kids. + +7068 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Looking for a great game to play at a party with a group of any size? This is it. +9158 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased this for a friends 1 yr olds birthday. Her kiddos love playing with music and he just loved this drum. It was so cute seeing him play with it and now he can join in on his older brothers jam sessions +On the female side, use a fingernail file and file down the little projections on the clip that holds them together. Don't file too much or it may come apart in flight. Just enough to make it easier to unplug it without pliers. +2658 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Ready for Hearts to meet Spades and Whist? Well then you are ready to play Wizard Deluxe. US Games has a true game of skill and strategy. Wizard Deluxe requires the players to make sure they only bid what they can take and no more. +7861 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 NO SMELL AT ALL. These are perfect and my son loves them. +4938 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I have received my order and I am very pleased with the product, quality, presentation and packaging! Thank you!! +5766 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Trying to teach my daughter Spanish and these cards are fantastic. +7908 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought these LARGE Size Wooden blocks because are easy to handle by toddlers and do not pose a choking hazard. The wooden Storage box is a real bonus. My little grandsons will enjoy these for years to come. + +This is a fun game and I recommend it. +2671 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 great game + +we found this thing + + +3115 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My daughter takes this hippo everywhere and sleeps with him at night. Very soft, snuggly and cute! It's such a great product because you can order the "mommy" hippo, the baby and the matching lovey. We bought them all! +5951 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I avoided this game for a while because I thought it was too complicated when reading the rules. It actually isn't and even as a 1 player game, it's a lot of fun. The 4 star rating comes from the rule book, it's terrible lol. The rules are very difficult to understand and are not specific enough, I play a lot of games and read many rule books, this was tough for me to understand, I looked up a quick YouTube walk through of the game and I grasped it right away. +The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is that the material seems like it would be likely to rip if more than 2 or 3 kids were playing with it at the same time. When we have alot of kids come to our house I usually hide the bus! (especially if the children are older than 7 or so). So far the inflatable steering wheel has held up well. I noticed that other reviews complain of the steering wheel deflating or getting holes in it; thus far that hasn't been a problem for us. +(1) Dace Bonearm, a level 7 unique pilot that costs 23 points whose special ability reads, When an enemy ship at Range 13 receives at least 1 ion token, if you are not stressed, you may receive 1 stress token to cause that ship to suffer 1 damage. +3817 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 it looks really nice in actual. the details are very finely done. +7140 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We use this in a play therapy setting. This cash register is perfect! We looked at a variety of different machines for MONTHS before landing on this one. This one meets all the basic needs of payment, allowing for more creativity as to in which imaginative environment a child could use it; whether it be the grocery store, a clothing store, a pet store, the post office, or whatever else they can think up! Because it focuses on being a general cash register, it is open for interpretation during play. The money and coins that come with it look great and there is enough money to get started playing right away! + +944 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very fun game - a little pricey, but well made and over all worth it if you love board games. My 85 year old father could play it without too much difficulty and really enjoyed it, as well as my 30+ sons and myself (60+). +I've now bought it through Ebay, at least I hope I have. It's a shame as I never had an unpleasant experience with Amazon before. +5114 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 our family loves board games and this is one of the best ones yet... it will most probably take a game to learn it through properly but after that the game should be nice and easy, and for the younger players, it's also a great way for pattern recognition! + +4438 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a great family game! Lots of fun for all of us! +5217 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very fun game! Has a lot of rules, so it's a little more difficult for young children. We didn't keep score because we had to help the 8 year old we were playing with. It takes up a lot of time, so perfect for a rainy day! +3821 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Amazing and Great Figure. + + +Mechanics- I wasn't being glib above. The rules are that simple, and that's fantastic. Also, this game has a semi-realistic economy. If you sell a ton of something, then the market has a lot of those goods and won't pay much for it. I love any game with slick rules and easy grasp concept that plays quickly. This feels like a pocket Lords of Waterdeep! 5/5 +The addition of Monty Python references is a blast! It's hilarious. Definitely would recommend if you're looking for a simple card game to enjoy with friends and you like Monty Python. + + +My quick review of the game: +7389 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Candy Land is the perfect classic game for the whole family. This game is basic enough for small children and as an adult it is still fun and exciting. It has brought back so many fun memories for me. I am so happy that I can share this fun game with my children. No skill is required and because it's all about matching colors it's a very simple game. There is a reason it has been around for so long. Also, the pieces are large enough they aren't a choking hazard. My 5yr old and I played and my 8mnth old just chewed on the pieces we were not using. It was a win win for all 3 of us! +4810 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Well, it is a bit cheap, but thats what I would expect at this price. It looks so cool. The enclosed chart is big, organized, easy to understand where organs go. Clear body is cool. Squishy organs are awesome. Te chest cavity and organs are exposed, so dust sticks to them. I just keep a piece of plastic that camewith it to cover the hole. It is so cool the kids cant keep themselves away from it. Perfect and so happy with purchase. Highly recommend for homeschooling kids with. +5073 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 fun game +6914 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is simple to explain, fun to play for all ages, adaptable to multiple skill levels and designed well -- what more could you ask. Opening the box you'll find a set of plastic cars of varying length, a deck of 40 cards that give layouts for the cars that vary from fairly simple to dastardly. Once you set up the miniatures as depicted, the player's task is to move the cars until a path is cleared for the target car to escape the gridlock. The game is well designed -- it includes a tray to hold the cards and a bag for the cars when not in use; also, a card holder lets you display the current puzzle. Very nicely done! +9604 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 So much fun! This is a great product. Both of my kids loved watching them from the time they were tiny, til we released them. I was a little worried about them being in the jar, but it was fine and a pretty quick process for the transformation . +4190 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This is a very detailed die cast & plastic model of the starship seen in the movie,Star Trek Journey Into Darkness. Comes with a mag. giving all the info about the ships creation & details. Have heard of this ship being referred to as Aztecan in design. And wondered what the hell people were talking about, once you see the actual model it will indeed make sense. My one BIG complaint is the saucer of the model is so heavy compared to the body, it does not set in the holding stand well. If its touched or the stand is moved its pretty much a given the model is going to fall off of the stand. Major fail on Eaglemoss's end for a toy that retails for 35 to 50 dollars in the US. For that price it also could have lit up to show the blue lights contrasting with the dark paint job. But now I am just splitting hairs. +7049 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A++ Great Purchase. +5128 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love this game! +8899 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great +265 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this game as a cheap introduction to what D&D world would be, and to introduce my GF and some friends to a boardgame with a little more RPG Elements than just rolling dice and killing stuff, the game was a real success the gameplay is easy to learn and the game may seem to be very straight forward but it will depends of the people playing it how fun can it be +As for the net, it seems to be exactly what I thought it would be. The quality is exactly what I would expect for a kids toy. My 6 and 5 year olds are enjoying checking in on their cocoons every morning. :) +This toy is a hit with my 6 year old son! My son loves math, so when we received this product, he immediatly wanted to start playing with it. I like that you can add, subtract, multiply, and divide with it, so my son will be able to grow with this toy. He is going into 1st grade, so it is nice that he can practice adding and subtracting, all while having fun with 'an electronic' toy. He even took it with him in the car and played on it the entire 4 hour car ride to go on vacation. +-While you're moving the body around a bit to see where the "snaps" are on the front and back clear body case, the foot or hand often falls out. +The FFG version will last through hundreds of hours of play. There are numerous variations of play available by swapping game board tiles and sides of those tiles, by varying the spell deck, and by altering the winning criteria. +Don't get me wrong, Fantasy Flight did produce a beautiful game and the quality of the pieces are "first-rate", but it doesn't save the mechanics and details of game play. +3089 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Good price ,quality tool +"Place all 144 tiles face down in the center of the table. These tiles are called the BUNCH. +7090 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great toy, realistic money +My only complaint is the cheapness of the box. It's not very sturdy for storage. +4349 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My grandson loved this and is learning how to spell because of it. + +4428 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Exactly what I expected and for a great price! Bananagrams is a great game to play while on the road. The bag is compact enough to put into my purse when makes it very convenient when traveling. +1412 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 TTR is pretty much my goto game for any group of folks 'new' to modern adult board games: +The ships included in the game have remained the same over the years; a battleship, aircraft carrier, submarine, destroyer, and patrol boat. Each player takes turns "shooting" at the other player by calling out grid coordinates, such as B-3 or J-5. This goes on until one player's ships are sunk by the other player. +9560 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 A favorite item for the grandkids. + +The more different sizes and items you have for your track the more your track can change from a simple circle to a large fun track. We have several sets of these to play with at our home. + +Including him and his ship in our games is a no brainer but getting such a valuable expansion makes it even better. +2495 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Funny! +3508 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 There was a box with stuff. In this box you find 1 sheet of character pieces, 2 sheets of beast pieces, 1 guid to being a dm, 1 guide to being a player, both of which contain the basics for learning the game and basic rules, 1 bag of piece placers about 15, 1 map, 1 set of dice, and an infinite amount of pending adventures. Came unscratched and non- dented. +7737 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My daughter loves this game as much as I did when I was her age. It's a great starter game for a 3 year old and allows some independence in playing since the rules are fairly simple and easy to follow. A family favorite! +4941 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 ok +The numbers are not very dark so it is difficult to read it in both dim conditions and in bright light. Forget using it in a car. +1808 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 he goes on the shelf +The main board (well, set of 6 boards) is awesome. The engineer board had a slight alignment issue. The player boards are a little crowded and would benefit from a third-party acrylic overlay to hold the pieces in position. Also, thicker card stock for the player boards would have been nice. The meeples and other game pieces are well done and the overall art is great as well. +4685 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My little one learns best by doing... each squishy piece has a name. We name the part as we put it where it belongs. What kid doesn't love squishy? She is learning organ names and doesn't realize it. How cool. + + +7309 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A fun game. Bought it for a 6 year old to play with his friends. Easy to play. +2779 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gift for 5 yr old grandson +9281 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This drum is lovely, sturdy and does the trick. It was my nephew's birthday gift to arrive--he is 4. He was ecstatic and wakes up to play it in the morning. My sister recently asked me to find him a music class! +4722 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gift +Cons, the forceps & tweezers are cheap. The forceps broke right out of the body and expected these materials to be better since we paid more ($24 with shipping) than the current price on Amazon of $17. Also the texture is squishy but very sticky, if you drop it on the carpet everything gets stuck on it, especially if you have pets. +- They can trade that stock on a 2 to 1 basis for stock of the company that acquired it. +3225 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My husband and I have only played a couple times, but it is definitely harder than Pandemic or House on the Hill(sic). +You can play with 2 - 5 people. My kids are 7-8 and they enjoy playing this. It is a great game for adults too. +The pieces are cute and the board is bright. +This review won't go too far into the mechanics of the game, as I feel that greater reviewers than I have done that very well. Please check out some of those reviews if this one piques your interest. Instead, I am going to give you my feelings on the game after having played it half a dozen times. This review will deal with the base game, and hopefully I will have time to play and review the excellent looking expansions already adorning my cabinetry. + +It easily collapses for storage. + +As far as core mechanics go, it's only for 2 players with each player selecting one corporation or runner from a group of factions, but one player must play as a Runner (the hacker) and the other player must play as a Corporation. The Corp attempts to build up assets and security while seeking to thwart the hacker from stealing the goodies. It's a lovely mix of play-styles and strongly fits into Cyberpunk themes and dynamics. +8646 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I work with kids and bought this for my office. They love this toy. It is the perfect size for them to play with and use for breathing exercises. Some of the kids like to bounce it on the floor and it has actually held up really great. I would buy this toy again and recommend it to others. + +CFH +9742 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great alternative to flashcards & helping kids get those multiplication facts down. I had one when I was young as well... a great learning tool~ + +The main thing to remember is that this game is REALLY fun. I kept hesitating to play this game thinking it would bore people, and my father looked a little scared as I read all the rules, but once we started to play he quickly got into it, and by the time time we got to the final corner he was on the edge of his seat and I was close to wrecking my gearbox and dropping out of the game. + +6538 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 gave as gift, child loved it +Buy any or all of these Adventure System games, they are simple, fast-playing, co-op (mostly) and above all, FUN! +The game itself is just cards, in a much larger, sturdy cardboard box. If you have other Gamewright card games, it's the same kind of box you get with Sleeping Queens, Zeus on the Loose, etc. The game itself doesn't take much space (four cards for each person on the table at a time, plus a draw deck and a discard pile - that's it) so this makes a good game to take with you on vacations, traveling or while visiting friends. The rules are simple enough to explain and lure others into a game as well. +9915 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We bought this for a camping trip. Great to contain my not yet crawling infant. Wish the velco for the screen was a zipper. If that was the case, this product would have gotten a five. + + +6363 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Piper loves it. Especially it is curious George. + +The coins are very realistic and true to size like real coins. The only downfall I can really see is that it doesn't take a standard AA or AAA battery. It takes a 1.5 volt coin type batter. It does auto shut off after a little bit of time though which would save on battery usage. It's the only reason why I dropped the stars by 1. I have oodles of AA and AAA batteries but of course..not the coin batteries! Otherwise, this little cash register is super! +3285 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Watch a gift, They loved it +2056 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Your child will enjoy the elf in the shelf if he works hard each day for Santa. Our Hershey is always watching the kids and reporting to Santa. Sometimes he gets into some mischief, while other times he may have a special surprise for them. +2023 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I sent this to my garndchildren, ages 5-7 and they loved it and their mother had fun with it all! A new FUN tradition for Christmas! + +4453 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We really enjoy this game. Sometime with the little kids we also use the tiles to play sight word Bingo. Very versatile and fun. +5887 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 One of the best games I have ever played!! +daughter likes it dunno if she actually played it tho...kids go figure +There is easily enough strategy that a strategic minded adult would almost always beat a non-strategically minded adult, and that adults will always beat kids in solo play, but team play with teams of adult + kid fixes this problem. While it may not be strategically deep enough for the very serious strategy gamer, its a total winner for everyone else. + +3. Try to get the little red car to the only exit by driving forward and reversing the vehicles on the board until the way is clear +Sounds complicated but its not. As long as an adult is keeping score, kids as young as 5 (maybe even 4) can pick this up. In my house, my kids being 6 & 9, we find it most fun to play 2 v 2, with everyone having their own hand, with team members seeing their teammates hand and jointly planning strategy. While this is mostly because the 6 year old would not be competetive on his own -- and he hasn't learned to like games he always loses -- team play actually does add to the level of strategy. My six year old can sometimes spot plays that I miss. +4094 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is exactly what I was looking for. Perfect. +8957 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This drum has a very rich, pleasing sound and seems very durable. I think I enjoy playing it even more than my toddler does! +2731 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 The drawings in the book have the eyes 3x bigger than the stuffed animal. Eyes are too small. My daughter noticed it right away. +1605 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I can't believe the price! This is the same thing the local stores were selling at over double the price here. It is the same box, same book, same elf, everything! This is really an awesome find! I bought it after Christmas and am putting it away for next year but even so, the stores still had it over double the amount. I took it out the box and inspected it, read the book and found nothing wrong with either one. +2144 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 If you're looking for a game to play after a big dinner & drinks, sitting around full & sleepy on the couch, look elsewhere. This game requires standing and walking about. It also requires a crowd willing to try something different and be a little uninhibited. + + +It is a great learning tool for all sorts of pretend play and practical application. Money makes begins to mean something real to a 4 year old, and it is just great as a teaching math tool as well if your child wants to know more . This cash register is also very very sturdy and really does take a lot of use . +Pros: +Just to name a few examples, Vinnie (12) took control of the Imperial Fleet while I took ownership of the Rebel Alliance for our first game. I had a lot of objective and command cards that did extra damage to enemy objectives. I found myself able to swoop in and do a lot of damage, though I had to remember to pay attention to each card's special ability to implement them. Vinnie, on the other hand, had more resources at his disposal and brought in the Devastator (a powerful capital ship) and a TIE Bomber. He wiped out one objective with a superlaser card and two more with his ships on following turns. Even though I had Force control throughout the majority of the game, he brought his Death Star tracker from zero to nine in no time flat. If it wasn't for special abilities and Force priority, I would have lost. +8318 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Awesome game! This is the same game I remember playing with back in the 80's! My kids are really enjoying it, too! + + +2902 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Didnt work out of the box after several attempts. Was a birthday gift, double sldisappointment. And, of course, I tossed the packaging so couldn't return. Ugh. + +As a nice plus, the art work on the cards themselves is well done. + +2451 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I would have given this game 3 stars because I must admit to how I feel each star represent how you truly feel and I felt like one little thing I didn't like shouldn't be the star given just based off that. So now let me explain what I mean. The game is a lot smaller than I actually thought I must admit I didn't read the full description like I normally do when I purchase things online to avoid problems like the one I have concerning this game. Yes it is a tile lock just like the description says it is but Like I said its small, the board....the tiles and even the stand for the tiles seem to be smaller than the original game. I had to go back to look at the box to make sure this wasn't some Junior version to the game like they have for monopoly. That seem to be my only problem I have with the game board other than that it definitely is a tile lock no more of the tiles scattering when we try to make a word. Would I recommend this product yes but beware it is small. + + +1145 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is easily one of our families favorite board games. Our whole family loves to play this game. Lots of strategy involved, although it is pretty easy to learn. Be prepared for some "heated" discussions! One thing to note...we added a "house rule" to this game. We use a die to determine how many train cards to pick instead of only having to pick two train cards. This makes the game go a little faster...although it is very annoying when someone rolls a "1"! +5741 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this for my son for Christmas. He loves playing it and so do his friends. Fun and easy to learn. Different. The more you play the better. Recommended. +7946 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this item to use for my maternity pictures. The blocks were just what we were needing. They were small enough so we could spell out my new bundle of joy's name and they had cute pictures on them. I am sure they will get good use for my little guy. I thought they were just as described and did not look cheap but just what wooden blocks should look like. +6675 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Excellent strategy game. +1709 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We caved and purchased this terrible creation. Our kids love our elf, Snowmint. He really did make the kids act a bit better and I had fun moving him around the house every night! +789 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Great game, we both - kids and adults love it! The only thing that I noticed is different from "Ticket to Ride: Europe", that this game's cards are very small in size, not typical size and not convenient to play. Thank you. +7928 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My grandson always wanted one of these. He has a great time with it. +3840 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The blurb on the e-wing says it was designed to be better and eventually replace the x-wing but of course it never did because of the cost. I agree with this completely. The maneuvering dial is pretty amazing besting even the imperial tie defender in some ways but the cost on surprisingly low stats cant justify the astronomical price. The e-wing cost between 27-35 squad points while x-wings can come in at 21-29 points a big difference. And yet when you compare the stats x-wings have 3 primary weapon, 2 agility, 3 hull, and 2 shields while e-wings have 3 primary weapons, 3 agility, 2 hull, and 3 shields. So essentially they upped the agility and moved a hull to shields, not really impressed. Personally I find myself reaching for x-wings over e-wings every time, the model is beautiful and the game mechanics are actually pretty good, but I find that the x-wings are more cost affective. +4283 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This is definitely a family game and we're glad the logic behind the actions that take place actually makes sense. Being about environmental issues, Eco Fluxx cards highlight the interdependence of species and the importance of environmental quality. Overall, it's much more educational than we thought it would be. two thumbs up for families with kids, especially. +8282 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 amazing +9670 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great addition for my grandsons train tracks. +8568 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great manipulative +3336 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I really love this game. The rules are simple to learn, but the game play is dynamic and complex. You will be able to get this game, open the box and be well on your way to playing in a very short time. The rules and the cards have very little ambiguity. +Fortunately, the last three-quarters of the book actually functions as a real player's guide, including the basics on how to choose a class, roll up attributes, figuring out ability modifiers, choosing feats and spells, buying weapons and other gear, and learning the basics of combat maneuvers and other functions a beginning player will need to know once they begin a game. You could have someone read the Hero's Handbook and they would be ready to enter a full game of Pathfinder, save for not knowing a few of the more advanced rules that could be picked up on the fly. The art styles are bright and vivid with high-quality artwork, and the writing style is equally compelling. Overall, the Hero's Handbook is a solid resource even after a player has upgraded to the full Pathfinder Core Rulebook. Overall, I'd give this book a 9/10. +8238 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My mom still has the mouse trap game from when I was a kid and my son likes to play it at her house so I wanted to get him his own for at home. I saw they have an updated version that looks different but I like the old style better so that's why I got him this one instead. +1869 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 All went well! + + +508 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My students have a great time with this game and love it. It is good for students needing help with English as well as students who are fluent. This is the first time my students happily look up words in the dictionary. Good for math too since they have to add up points on each card for the word them make. Fun game +Highly recommended! This is one game where the youngest kid is on a level playing field with the adults. Very easy to learn and anybody can win! +5292 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a cute well made game for my grand kids. They enjoy playing this game. The Amazon description was very clear and accurate. The product was packaged well and arrived in good condition. + +2724 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bad Kitty is so cool +1677 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Had looked all over for this little guy. All local stores were sold out. Purchased it for my mother for Christmas. Come to find out, she had gotten me one also. My kids are a little older...so it's usually me (mom) that wakes up and finds what mischief the little guy has gotten into during the night. So it's fun for older kids too! +3854 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Cool ship, just a little too expensive for any of the flights I use. +3330 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love it + +6869 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I'm retired and was given this to fuss with ... maybe to stay mentally active? It's fun and facinating ... buy the extra decks as I did. I now give these as gifts to young and old. And it's good at table, chair, and in bed. Get it. + +6527 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 8-year old loves this game. Cheaper here than buying at Walmart. A little flimsy, but it plays the same. +So the game continues until only one player has all the cards. +5021 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Had fun playing this with my 6 year old grandson. Match the color or the shape. + +6362 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Exactly what I expected. Good size. Looks great. Again, I haven't actually opened it yet as it's for my almost 5 year old daughters birthday. +9043 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Grandson (2 years old) loves this product. +8020 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gdaughter so excited +Also don't expect lengthy game sessions. Rat-a-Tat-Cat is fun for the fast paced, quick card game that it is. It's not nearly as popular with my kids as "Horse Show" or "Sleeping Queens" but they always demand to play it in between games, and that says a lot. +There are 24 individual sheets that are exactly as shown. +348 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a very well designed and balanced set of expansions to the original Lords Of Waterdeep board game. Highly recommended add-on for anyone that already has it (and to state the obvious, the base game is required). +2271 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Original elf on shelf...naughty elf stold this elf original story. + +5013 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great family game. great for kids from 6 and up. +My husband and I played this and an entire game only took about 15 minutes, though I'm sure it would take longer the more people that were playing or if some players were children. You move old school cardboard character cut outs of Rudolph, Clarice, Hermie, or Santa (no Yukon Cornelius sadly)around the board trying to rescue misfit toys before the Bumble can swipe them. You can only collect one of each color as you need 3 toys each of a different color token to win. The youngest player rolls a die to go first and a dvd directs you as to where toys have been cited by King Moonracer or alerts you to the Bumble's trouble making. +The tiles are of good quality plastic; the days of wooden tiles are on their way out, I fear. +(8) Tibanna Gas Supplies, a 4 point upgrade card you can discard to gain 3 energy. +5924 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Fun game +7234 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 4 year old twins and 6 year old daughter love this game. +7303 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Super fun and super fast game. I really enjoy it. Best played with at least 5 or 6 players. Cards are a bit fragile but the game is so fast that you may not have time enough to check who has the folded or broken card. +4321 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Love the game, but was disappointed with the quality of the tiles this time which were hollow underneath. I have purchased several games in the past and the tiles were solid and smooth on the back instead of being hollowed out. Sad to see the quality of the product cut. I can't believe the savings amounted to much. +I used to tutor students in logic. +7031 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Kids love it. +Maybe my children and I are different, but finding a way to make the trap "work" is really part of the fun for us. I think it engages my children to observe and analyze and apply thinking skills to contribute in the building and execution of the trap. My 4 year old realized that if he holds down the base of the crank, it won't shift as much and allows for a better launch of the sign into the boot. (if your game is older, the slots in the board tend to get worn out and the bases can shift a bit, holding them down helps stabilize it. You could also just tape or glue the bases into place and put the game in a plastic bin or something instead and only build on top of the bases.) + +Y-WING + +A few points of criticism... +460 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this for my sixth grade class. They love it! Is a fun family game for kids around 8 up to adults. Similar to Gin Rummy but with letters instead of suits. Bigger words = more points. + +243 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is very fun and all of the materials in the game are nicely made. It isn't just cheap toys. I also loved the shipping, came very quickly. +9012 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Like Rush Hour, Railroad Rush Hour has you "escaping" the traffic jam... this time in the railroad yard, where the traffic can include rail cars and cargo. Rearrange the pieces to get the engine out. +- Loosely whipping an egg before you put it in a recipe + +5003 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 So much fun! Really makes your brain work. Unfortunately, only 4 people - or 4 teams - can play at one time. +2880 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I wanted this for my great-granddaughter who has Llama Llama books. This is a smaller size than others I have seen but was pleased with the product. + +5554 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game, perfect for fluxx lovers! + +5854 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 These are lots of fun, and a couple people can work on one at the same time. Beautiful results. +4557 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our (middle-school through high school aged) children and I enjoy this fun little game. We can make the game as quick or as long as we want, and everyone works independently at their own pace (not needing to wait for anyone to take a turn). It's easy to set up (just dump out the letter tiles), easy to clean up (put them back in the zippered fabric banana bag), and takes up very little space and easy to just throw in my bag and take with us when we want. +her dress and hair are made of softer plastic/rubber which is a great touch, it even seems like she has a complete sculpted body under her dress, she has legs and painted shoes +3438 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My daughter received this as birthday gift(7) Though I had always noticed it in our local toystore, the price tag deterred me a bit. I mean face paint for $20+? BOY am I glad we have it and that I can write a glowing review. The paints are nothing like the goopy "halloween type" face paints usually seen in stores. They are dry until you add water, they can be mixed in the tray without damaging the integrity of the colors, and there are beautiful pictures with step by step directions to achieve professional looking results. The paints do not stain the face but did leave a hint of color on my daughters inner arm area(where she painted "bracelets") I had a lot of fun with this kit, it was easy to use, and cleanup is simple. I might add that it is compact enough to travel with. Definitely recommend!! + +I like that you can start with a basic game where you car just takes general damage. When you get the hang of that then you can move to advanced rules and eventually add more mechanics to the game. So in the advanced game you then have to worry about damage to various parts of your car like the engine, tires, body, brakes, etc. Additional mechanics are described for you to add in your game like weather, slipstreaming, pit stops, multiple laps, etc. +9516 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My six year old son loved this. +5928 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What is really nice about this game is that it can be played alone and still be a lot of fun. The printed instructions are pretty vague, and I would have dropped my review to 4 stars, but TMG has excellent play-by-play demonstrations on YouTube that clearly explain the rules. It is not a complicated game, at all, once you watch the videos and go through a few rounds. +Highly Recommended! +9192 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great quality. My two year old beats on this drum like there's no tomorrow and I don't mind because it has a nice low sound. + + +1834 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great gift for any child...highly recommend +1176 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our new favorite family board game. A game that is fun, requires thought, planning and is a blast to play. I highly recommend this game for those people who like games such as Power Grid and Risk. +2423 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My kids LOVE The Elf on the Shelf and have had them since 2008! We currently have 4 elves and 2 reindeer so of course when these came out we had to have them! I'm not sure why they are $25 when the reindeer were priced at $20. They're pricey but everything that is this brand is expensive. +Overall, this is a GREAT game, and well worth the purchase price. It has given us hours of enjoyment and quality time together, untethered from our electronic devices. The game lends itself to customization of monster sets allowing the utilization of monsters from other D&D sets (i.e., Dungeon Command). Although there is no true character design, as the heroes are a predetermined group, with some imagination, there is no reason that you could not design your own hero cards. +9360 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love this drum! It is so durable and has a great sound. It comes with 2 drumsticks as other reviews have stated, so do not buy an extra drum stick! +It is pretty easy for kids to carry from one room to another using the handle and the parts stay put since they are magnetized to the board. + +1 female elf paladin +6956 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 As described! +9148 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 first we tried the 19" and the pitch was way to high. then we tried the 16" but it arrived damaged. so we splurged and got the 22". wow. not only is it the coolest sound you'll ever hear the pitch is so deep that you can feel it in your chest. my 2 year old boy makes "parade" every 10 min. he's super stoked. and as a purcussionist myself, i'm very happy we went with something deep instead of something high pitched like a snare drum. our friend has a baby snare kit for his son, but the poor kid doesn't ever get to play cause he's always being told to be quiet. haha. buy this drum. +331 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This expansion allows you to add players to Lords of Waterdeep. It's our favorite game with groups of 3-5. It adds an additional character, buildings and a few new elements of game play. +9572 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My daughter was needing help in math so we got this. The most it is in use in the car. +3228 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Like the novels, this game can come across as quite the endeavour if you plan to finish it. +The game is easy to learn, fun to play, and addicting. Our only complaint, which has already been mentioned is the red and orange tiles can be hard to tell apart under some lighting. Pink (or white) would have been a better color for either one of them. +4005 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 When I first saw the dice I said to myself "UGH. More dice?" but then I laughed, because I'm a gamer and dice are like crack and I had to have them. I played my first game of SW:EotE over the weekend and the dice did great. Did not take me long at all to begin to piece together how the dice work. Since these are a MUST for the SW game, you can feel better with the purchase by knowing that you'll pick up how they work pretty quickly. + +4159 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My husband and I love the television show and I have devoured the books so it made sense for us to add this card game to our collection. While setting up the game, we had no problem but then became a little confused when we started to play. Not a crisis. There are videos available on youtube with clear tutorials so we were able to figure out what we needed to do. +7987 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Good game. +6055 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I LOVE this game. Having played the original, I was worried this version might have lost something since it switched companies. +4693 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 this not only grossed out the children while disecting, but they loved it and learned from it. +7151 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My friend bought this toy for her son over a year ago, and the cash drawer came out and would not go back in. She told me as she was waiting for a replacement product a month later. I was a little worried when my husband found it for sale on a deal site this past Christmas and wanted to buy it for my son. When we opened it, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the toy worked fine. +3473 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I needed a good screen and this one is solid in construction and information. +- Cards are oversized, about 1.5 times as large as a regular deck of playing cards +1669 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Grandma loves it +1276 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Right away we opened the Rush Hour game and thought it was great! It says this is designed for 8 and over but I have to disagree. The kids play a similar penguin game app on our phones where they need to move ice blocks to get the penguin out and so they found some of the challenges easy for their ages (5 and 3). There are 80 challenges so you won't find yourself memorizing any solution too easily. +5115 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Simple to learn and fun to play. Highly addictive. +1880 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What can I say, the elf is awesome! My son talks to him to tell me what he wants for Christmas. Its a fun thing for the whole family. + Points are scored as Ive said, but those destinations you weren't able to complete, yeah those count as negative points. Oooo.. ouch. + +6501 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very fun game puzzle! +4287 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This timeline add-on to the award winning game Chrononauts, brings the timeline up to the year 2008. It also include 3 new character IDs. +3392 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 good +2 missile cards: 1 Homing Missiles and 1 Assault Missiles; +5/5 because: + +9409 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 You wouldn't think this simple, kinda chintzy, game would be a family favorite but it's actually quite fun! The graphics are laughable and the cards are dreadfully thin and flimsy which makes me wonder how durable they will be, but the concept is actually a really smart one. The players work together (which is a refreshing change to the competition aspect of other games) and the idea of having to beat the clock is what makes this so fun. It's essentially a memory game but again, it's the idea of having to find matches before midnight that kinda makes it intense. We play many rounds of this during our family game night. And the secret door is really whimsical. Our daughters like to open it with a resounding "creeeeeeek!" So cute! +The Dark Young manages to vamp on the by-now well-known look of the thing, both keeping true to the overall canonical vision but executing it in a new way. Kudos to the sculptor. +(4) Torun Far, an awesome 6 point upgrade that lets you spend energy to remove focus, evade, and target lock tokens from enemy ships at range 1-2. Can only be used on huge Rebel ships. + +It is made of very sturdy pieces, and each have very easy to read cities/state/landmarks. It is fabulous. It takes up more of my kitchen table than I had actually expected, but well worth the placement. I am thinking I may look for a frame and glue the pieces together and put this on the wall as a map. I very much recommend this purchase, well worth the $12.99. +5017 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is great for family time with younger children around the age of 7 or so. It requires some thinking ahead and how to place the titles. We love to play this game with our family and my daughter is very competitive and has beat us a couple of times with it. One down side is you can only play up to four people, there are not enough titles to really play more than that. Would be great if they made it where more people could play with more titles. Game is fun! +3) For such a simple game, it manages to perfectly balance the possibility of changes in fortune without seeming arbitrary. The game is literally in doubt until the last card is played (one of the "special" cards might send a player back to near the start). This is great for teaching that most valuable of lessons: "NEVER give up". +The price is well worth it! +Have Fun ^_^ +2374 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Yep, this game is quite involved and quite detailed - for a boardgame. But it's not JUST a boardgame. You can play solo with 1-4 characters, or play with other individuals each commanding one character. The game has rules for scaling the adventures to the number of players so you'll actually have a chance of winning. Only a chance, anyway. Even having lost many games, I still had a great time trying to get my heroes past dark events and combat with strange, fierce monsters! +- solidly built. i don't see this one breaking easily. +4583 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bananagrams is a great game for everyone, kids & adults, who can spell and arrange words cross-word style. And it doesn't matter how many different levels of readers / spellers are playing. Since you're creating your own board, you're competing against yourself. +Bonus... the minis are pre-painted, so one less step to be able to use them and the map tiles fit with descent and DnD. + + +3207 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased this Yogarilla card deck because when I observed my son in school with his occupational therapist, she was using these cars with him. I couldn't believe my eyes that my ten year old was doing yoga and actually loving it! I ordered the cards right away and even went ahead and purchased yoga mats for both my children at home. One thing about my daughter is, if she sees my son doing something, she wants to join in on the fun as well. They absolutely love Yogarilla and they both come home from school asking if they can do yoga with me. This is a beautiful card deck, very easy to use, thorough instructions on the back and Otis the gorilla on the front with each individual pose. They are color coded for certain positions, which is great. Super easy to use, and I highly recommend them, not just for school use, for parents as well! +This isn't something you'll play every night, but it stays fresh every time you come back to it. We've played 35-45 games so far and aren't close to going through all the cards. However, if you're good at creating proverbs, be prepared for spans of waiting for others to finish up with theirs. If you're the one who is slow, you may get frustrated and start writing stuff down just to complete the round. The game has a simple dedicated theme, but is great especially in creative groups. +7774 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great price, ran my solar power so non need to worry about batteries. Good price and learning tool. Lots of fun with fast delivery. + +8468 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gamewright games are the best. Got this to play with my grandchildren who are 6 and 10. We had lots of fun. +COMPONENTS +In addition to the normal cards, in the deck is a limited amount of Creeper cards, when you get a creeper card, it immediately plays down and you replace the card from the deck. +The only thing I might do differently is buy a "set" of Remo instead of just the one. She doesn't play it very long because well, it doesn't change sounds (unless you place your hand on top, as we've experimented and discovered!), but that has nothing to do with the quality, sound, or durability of this particular drum, which is crazy-good. +Excellent and educational toy. He should have years of fun playing with it. +4118 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Perfect addition so that each side of the table can have their own set of dice. Makes it a little more convenient. +Each completed destination card awards points. Failing to complete a destination card removes points. Each completed railroad section awards points (based on the length of the railroad). At the end of the game, the player with the longest continuous railway is awarded bonus points. And of course, the player with the most points wins. +-New building layover strips are GREAT, with or without the new building sheets, because now players have options for buildings not available to other players, which provides different ways to win. +6068 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My family really enjoyed this game although it takes quite awhile to complete a game (we had 6 players). There are a lot of rules, but once you get the hang of it, it's easy to pick up or explain to others. + +Cons: + - the score doesn't matter much - sure, if you're playing a 2 hour game of El Grande, you want to know the exact score at the end, but the draw here is not the winner(s) celebrating, it's the journey getting there +7457 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Played this game in college some 40 years ago - it was a blast then and it's a blast now! Really fun. +-New building sheets offer more variety, but don't really change the strategy if everyone is using the same sheets. +Say Anything Family: 3-6 Players, Ages 8+, Average Play Time = 30 Minutes +with that said ill do a quick break down of pros and cons + +I have been very good at Scrabble for as long as I can remember, but in recent years I've balked at playing with my family during holiday visits. The flaws of Scrabble should be evident to anyone whose played at least once: the endless waiting for someone to play their turn, the table-pounding frustration of watching someone take "your spot", the fights over people thumbing through the dictionary to debate bogus word after bogus word, the teeth-grinding stress of building words for the sake of hitting double/triple spots rather than just long words, and so on. For me, Scrabble is a 3-hour time commitment that is more stress than it's worth. +3688 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 You can't go wrong with this Cosmic encounter expansion! It adds even more replayability to a game that is already almost endless in its' possibilities. If you play with this expansion, I would recommend replacing the aliens in the original game for the first few playthroughs so you get the most out of this experience, and then later on eventually mixing everything together. The chaotic nature of this game is actually what makes it so exciting; you never know who is going to win, even up to the last turn. +This game is for people who love to think. It is awesome for kids, and will help them develop their logic skills. Do have in mind that you will need to place the pegs in bags or they will get lost. Have fun! +5407 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We just played this for the first time and we're hooked. My 5 year-old can play, but strategy is a little beyond her. The 9 year-old completely gets it, and both my husband and I thought it was great. I love that it's so simple and easy to pick up-- just a bunch of solid wooden tiles in a canvas bag. Kind-of like an abstract version of Scrabble. Lots of fun. As simple or as complicated as you want it to be! +Controlling the monolith earns you special cards that can DEVISTATE your opponent/s. If this is your first time playing - RUN TO THE CENTER AND HOLD IT!. +APPROPRIATE AUDIENCE: Hardcore gamers will enjoy this as a "warm-up" between their more complicated gaming sessions. It's also a very useful tool for introducing newcomers to these kinds of games. + +9027 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 The original Rush Hour is still much more fun. The only reason I had to buy this is my son is such a train freak. The puzzles are not as challenging overall, yet the difficulty level is a bit uneven in the four categories (junior, beginner, intermediate, advanced). Also, the build quality is poorer, as a few of the train pieces don't sit properly on the board, and the colors on the train pieces do not match those printed on the puzzle cards, a sore point for a young boy. + +549 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Although I read the rules that came with this game, my son and I made some rules of our own, that I think are most appropriate to his level of current knowledge, and that I think can best help him learn from playing with these cards. If we only have 20 minutes, that's enough time to have some fun with this. +5846 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got this by request for one of the grand daughters. I ordered several different topics. They have been a big hit, and it is interesting to see what all shows up in the picture as you complete the progression of dots by the number. It is quite surprising! All to the good, no bad surprises. Nice when traveling, nice when she just wants some quiet time. I find she will work for a while, then lay it down, and come back later to work again. It was a good choice. +7146 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great classic game. +1517 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My wife and I enjoy games -- usually more of the thinking kind -- risk, scrabble, etc. This game kept popping up, so I gave it a shot. You can learn it in 5 minutes, but it is a blast. Lots of strategy (which I am still ironing out) and a enough luck to change things up every time you play. I would definitely recommend the 1910 expansion pack, though! +We'll definitely pull this one out again next time. Thank you Mitchell in VA for reviewing the game! +1877 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Good +The game, like many CCGs where it originally came from, can sometimes be won or lost by one of the players having a lot of bad draws. The nice part about it losing the CCG format is this happens less. However, it can still occur, but since the game usually runs 30 minutes you're not out too much, and you can just try again. +9980 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I have a 10 month old grandson and a 3 1/2 year old grandson and I wanted something for both boys to be able to play with either by themselves or together. The Fun Tube is just the right toy for this. The 10 month old crawls through easily and the 3 1/2 year old crawls after him and vice versa and lets them play together for a while and seems to break the age difference down. They play wonderfully together with the Fun Tube!! + +4686 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very cool. Squishy, life like organs. My 8 year old loves it! +Each player is dealt 4 cards face down. +1216 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is one of the best easy to learn games out there, and nobody I've introduced it to has ever been disappointed. It is simple to learn, but there is still a lot of strategy, which is the best thing that can be said about a game. I'm looking forward to playing it with my kids when they get a bit older. +The game is well made and illustrated with interesting detail. It is very simple to play with nothing to read, so even younger children can enjoy this game. While it is basically a memory game- you turn over tiles and try to match them, there is an element of urgency since you are working together against the clock (grandfather clock tiles) to find all matches. + +w. +4119 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I'm a big fan of Imperial Assault, and was really looking forward to Wave 1's release. Like the other ally and villain packs in this Wave, this one both completes (i.e., you can now use the Han Solo mini instead of the token) and adds to (i.e., command cards, skirmish and campaign missions, and more) what's comes with the base game. +5825 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My kids loved these - I bought two different ones. They keep my kids (8 and 9) entertained, and they are challenging. My kids love trying to figure out what the picture is of, and my daughter even colors the pictures. +2415 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 my granddaughter loved this new pet but it needs clothes she said lol +I will rate this game 4.5 stars out of 5. It took at least 5 game plays to fully understand the rules and still a couple of folks in my gaming group don't get them. In general, a great game. Just make sure you have lots of snacks by your side as this can take about 3 hours or more from start to finish. Also, having a group that is willing to spend that much time is a also crucial. This is definitely not for the average gamer out there. +1807 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Kids loved it. Don't forget to move it. +Version & Components +7209 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game and price +5691 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Pirate Fluxx is my favorite Fluxx compared to all the others (and I've played almost all of them). This one is exciting because you can "hide your booty" and "get scurvy" and you have to "talk like a pirate" sometimes if that rule card is played. So much fun! +8189 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great original game +Rebecca Kyle, February 2009 +Let's just say this, the game is supposed to last around 45 minutes, but it was over in 20. I love it and I think it's great fun. It has some trivia you answer by the other reading a card and other questions are answered by watching video clips. Overall, I would recommend this game to those that want to play alone or with other Trek fans. If you are the only Trek fan playing, you may be the only one that has fun. +9557 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Caterpillars arrived already dead. Habitat was nice though, bigger than I thought it would be. My daughter was disappointed that she was watching a dead bug for so long waiting for something to happen. LOL +As others have said, there is a learning curve of getting familiar with the cards and what happens during the marshaling and challenge phases. The guide book will be your best friend as you learn to play at first. +2319 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We choose this elf over the seemingly more popular alternative in hopes that it would be more friendly-looking than its elf counterpart. Success! The kids are enjoying looking for the elf every morning not cowering. The book is OK. Its main benefit is providing the back story for the elf, why it is around the house and some ground rules (such as no touching or back to the North Pole I go). I liked how the story was written in a way that encouraged positive behaviors without a big brother is watching you vibe. If you are looking for an elf to visit during the holidays, I would go with Pop-in-Kins. +7735 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Glad to see this classic game is still around to enjoy. My 4 year old will LOVE it. I do. +3766 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great light combat game. If you are familiar with "Modern Boardgames" this would be a great light game that is set in a science fiction based theme. If you have not played any "Modern Boardgames" and have played games like Risk this is a deeper game with more rules but by no means is it hard to understand. I'm glad it's part of my collection and I will be keeping this one for a long time. +9890 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Cute tent we took it to the beach for our daughter to sleep in the only thing i wish i would have gotten one that popped up alot of assembly +"A moonshiner always gets his grain from the same supplier. After the moonshine is done he gives 10% of the stuff to his grain supplier. At the end of one such exchange the moonshiner ended up with exactly 1 liter of moonshine. How much did the grain supplier get?" +1054 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I think this game is better suited for our nephew than us. Great game and he loves it but we wouldn't buy it for ourselves. +7500 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great game for my 3 and 5 year old to enjoy +9 out of 10 +212 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Hall of Fame board game. The game is easy to learn and fantastic for 3, 4 or 5 players. Games go very quickly. +Those problems were pretty frustrating. + +Pros: +With a good mix of players and perspectives, you'll get a big range of completed proverbs, ranging from Confucius worthy to a simple phrase that fools everyone. If you can't think of anything, you can also create something ridiculous to make it impossible for the reader to read without laughing. We've had a lot of fun playing this in several different family or friends groups, including several international groups. The proverbs come from cultures all over the world, and are often interesting and spark further conversation. +2337 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a very cute story. Nice to start a new Christmas tradition. The book and elf come packaged very nicely. It's a story about an elf who wants to see children. He pops in to your house to watch them. You can move him around for the children to find him. His hands and legs bend to hold onto things. Kids will really enjoy looking for the elf each year.Christopher Pop-In-Kins "Pops In" + +9185 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Absolute utter Chinese crap. +5886 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Light game. Press your luck with dice dragons and other baddies. Good filler game. Great components. Don't forget to use your characters special abilities. + +4) Hand-eye coordination gets some practice. The pieces are little pegs, and they fit into slots on the game board. This makes the counting easier and guides players to put their token in the proper slot. The act of putting the peg in the slot can be a challenge for little hands, but generally, if a child can do the counting, he or she probably has enough dexterity to move the pieces. (You WILL, by the way, eventually lose a piece or two. Luckily, almost any bit of colored plastic can be substituted.) +5521 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very cute stickers! They are high quality - no ripping when I try to peel them off, and they stick very well to my paper planner. Great for decorating the Thanksgiving holiday in my planner! +8682 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 my 12 years old son fall in love with this toy. i didn't expect that it would be such a big hit. he said it can occupy him for hours... :) +Have fun! +1555 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 4 year old had a blast this December with his Elf friend! + +6744 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love this game!!! My kids love it....an old classic. +GAMEPLAY + +I'd only recommend this to someone that plays the game a lot and is willing to shell out the money for basically just the investigators and ancient ones. +1289 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We wanted a game that our 13 would like. She likes to play Catan and thought this would be a good fit for her. We were wrong- all of us love it! We have a 5, 7 and 13 year old. We have to help (play as a team with him) the 5 year old but otherwise we are good to go! Believe the reviews... it's great! +3815 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 the design looks really awesome and the color as well. great find! +8390 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 Just OK. First time I played this with the grandkids they enjoyed building the trap and seeing it all work. But now they just want to get to the part of capturing the mice. And they figured out how to place the mouse under the trap so it won't capture completely. So not sure they are really getting the whole idea of the game. Kids are 7 and 9. Became bored with this pretty quickly. +5024 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great strategy game. +As with all expansions, this one includes all tokens, dials, etc. that you need to use this ship in a game (though a copy of the base set is still needed to play). +5713 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is as hilarious as the other Fluxx editions. Delivery was fast too! It will be great to shuffle into the other decks we have and see how crazy things get! + +8705 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very cool. My son loves it. +5271 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Bought this for our 6 year old grandson and we enjoy playing. Still learning moves and rules - but not hard. +4188 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I'm a big fan of Imperial Assault, and was really looking forward to Wave 1's release as it both completes (i.e., you can now use the Rebel Saboteures minis instead of tokens) and adds to (i.e., the red skirmish card, a side mission, 2 skirmish missions, and more) what's comes with the base game. +8099 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Purchased for my 2 1/2 yr old daughter - best $35 I ever spent! She plays "store" all day long with it. Only design flaw is that the cash drawer shoots out at a mile a minute, spilling the change. But she's learned to hold it with her hand and all's well. Highly recommended. +(after checking with their parents, of course) +5930 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 The game components are excellent and I love the custom dice. The cards have good artwork, the counters are thick and double-sided, and the box looks like a little (3W x 3L x 3T) treasure chest and is used to store and draw from for treasure tokens during the game. +You vie for control of the Iron Throne while trying to be the first to acquire a total of seven castles and strongholds before the 10th round ends. If no one has acquired seven castles by the end of the 10th round, then whomever has the most wins. +At a most basic level, this game introduces the young mind to the concept of "games". "Games" have "rules" and "winners". This is quite a hurdle to jump for a young child (especially an autistic child), yet it is essetial that they jump it. And, thankfully my kids did! + +8462 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great gift for my nieces -- they will love it. +2034 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We bought this as a Christmas gift for our niece and her family. Her children just loved it! GREAT BUY! +Good for two or more players! + +6063 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Our group was looking at other options to include for game night and I happened to find this one based on a few online recommendations / videos. The game is a lot of fun, but make sure your group has at least some interest in 'racing'. One reason this game caught my attention was the amount of people who could actually be involved. The game comes with some really fun manual-shifting boxes that add a different feel and conversation when playing. Everyone wanted to get to the highest gear quickly but found they were taking damage quickly. This game also comes with 2nd track on the backside for more city-style driving and slightly different rules. We haven't gotten around to trying that side out yet. When opened... this game is huge and draws a lot of attention. + +The first time you open the box to this game you will be amazed at the amount of color and artistic images that are included. There are over hundred tokens, and the civilization cards all have a great drawing of a famous leader belonging to each civilization. This game has over 10 map tiles that each have 9 squares of different land types that look very artistic and beautiful. Images are also included on all of the military cards to represent all of the unit types including infantry, artillery, calvary, and aircraft. Each of these things may not make up entirely for the great graphics and animations you will find in the civilization video game, but they do a pretty good at transferring the video game's visuals into a board game. +Theme- The theme isn't bad, but it does need a bit of work. I like the world this game is in. It's in the same world as Belford, and I like the way that place looks and feels. It's almost like the Discworld. Also, the unique player cards do bring some story the game with all the cards have flavor text on them. That's a good addition to a card game that adds a bit more theme to a semi dry concept of buying property and market manipulation. Overall, it does feel like I'm a real-estate mogul in a fantasy world, but some of the simplifications does take away a bit from the theme. This game is good, but it's not Arkham Horror levels of emersion. 4.25/5 +7352 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game and love the idea of the bell. Wish they would put extra bulls and bears in the deck because they always get torn, bent or scuffed within just a few games. + +very happy! +9781 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Perfect, exactly what I needed. +5159 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Like Scrabble, but you don't have to be a word genius for two letter words. +1721 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 As much as i can't stand this little guy, and really hate dealing with him. My kids love him and makes every morning exciting as they go searching around the house for him. Just as described. + +2521 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 It's been a while since I played Scrabble, but I do remember the frustration of trying to keep tiles in place! I played this with my niece the other day and I was surprised at how small the tiles were. I'm not sure how they compare to regular Scrabble pieces, but they seem TINY to me! Other than that, the tile locks do exactly what they say and even my parents thought it was a pretty cool feature. Great to have a new spin on an old classic! +5440 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Bought this for a twilight fan and they love it :) great gift +Caveats: +There are 12 body parts to remove and one (ankle bone to the knee bone) to connect. Yes, Sam's nose still buzzes and goes red if you touch the metal with your "operating" tool! 2AA batteries (required) are NOT provided. +It's easy to learn and once you have learned it the game goes fairly quick. My only complaint is that some of the capitals are in the wrong spot on the map :) + +This allows Scum Villainy to raid and fight as a truly independent force. +9488 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Helped my child memorize multiplication tables without "boring" flashcards or whining. My child enjoyed this like a toy. My child is very tactile. +1166 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a balanced simple game that is fun to play over and over. Yes there are expansions galore. No, you don't need to buy them all. If you get one expansion pack, I'd suggest Ticket To Ride India. It's a crazy mash-up of cities, so less predictable to play for North Americans. +8243 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 A must buy for age appropriate kids! Couldn't go wrong with the lightening deal price +The Hoberman Mini Sphere consists of black and neon green hubs. They can be snapped in place to keep the circled shape so you can roll it along the floor. We enjoyed the glow-in-the-dark effect by entering the bathroom and turning off the lights to see the magic. + +6634 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Everyone in the family enjoys playing this game of course unless you can't get anyone home. Fun for kids of all ages including mom & dad! +6323 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Really cute collection...great gift for collectors and for people who loves anime figures...beautiful dolls from Hatsune Miku program...My nephew really love these collection... +When Sauron starts to move, you'll see why this game is such a challenge to beat. +3023 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Perfect, Thanks +Sadly, all that couldn't rescue this game. It is exceedingly repetitive. Play about 3 turns and you'll get the entire experience this game has to offer - there will be nothing new or exciting for you. The game is hopelessly shallow, based on so much chance that strategy is non-existent. Despite the modular tiles, the game offers virtually no customization. +9709 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I got this for my 3-year-old and 1-year-old. They can pull the signal arms off but not put them back on (easy for an adult). Compatible with Imaginarium and IKEA wooden tracks. My boys enjoy staging scenes where cars get stuck under the signal arms and hit by a train, and this works very well for that! +8843 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Good Quality. Right weight. Pretty durable. Kids immediately decided that they were hackysacks and had lots of fun with them, but two still survive. +1384 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Best train game ever. Over millions sold and it is a all time favorite. Very easy to teach and play. A definite must buy! +2188 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What fun! This game is really a great way to get to know one another whether its friends, family or co-workers. We use it as a bonding tool and really getting to know our own family members! +4268 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 If you love Fluxx and Monty Python then this game is for you all the humor of the movie is there and is priceless. +3800 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Dark Horse Deluxe and Gentle Giant have teamed up to bring us fans of HBOs Game of Thrones action figures. I anticipate that people will be annoyed and or pissed that these figures are in a static pose and have no articulation. There was a rather negative reaction to Mezcos Breaking Bad Walter White action figure having no articulation and I suspect there will be some displeased buyers who aren't expecting a figure in a static pose. I don't mind because I am keeping my in their box. +8292 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have had this game since our daughter was 2 and she is now 4 and we still play it over and over again! It is one of her favorite games and I can see it being her favorite for a few more years. +5525 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I saw this game at a store and lost my mind. I needed this game and I bought it on the spot. There was no way to say no. +4072 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 X-wing is the miniature game of the 21st century. And you have to have your X-wing! +2531 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I think the name of this product is very misleading. In no way do the tiles actually lock into place. Instead there are 4 little pegs that stand up at the edges of each spot on the (plastic) board that are supposed to help keep the tile in place. +7310 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 All ages will love this game. Be quick! Loads of laughs for everyone. +1311 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My family loves this game! It is the first game of choice whenever we get together plus two of my adult daughter's own the game too. I will probably buy the expansion set soon so that it will be challenging. Kids pick up this game quickly and can learn a little geography along the way. +6782 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game rocks! Our only complaint with this game is that it's tight to fit all of the pieces in, and the storage bag isn't big enough if you get additional sets of cards. +9346 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We're giving this to our 11 month grandson for Christmas. We;re very happy with the construction and we know he's going to love the sound. He's at the stage where he wants to bang on everything! + +5682 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I LOVE this game! Any of the Fluxx games are so fun and dynamic and change for every single game play. If you like Pirates and fun times, get this! +The hours of entertainment and enjoyment you will receive from this game make it well worth the money! +865 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Good game just really expensive for what you get +7474 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 As advertised...classic +6515 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 just as cute in person as in the picture....She is going to love it....Another grandma hit....yahoo.... +8304 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My little boy is going to get a kick out of this game, and I love that my older son will have fun playing with him. +5889 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Aquasphere is a game where you are programming robots to do underwater research. There are many ways to program them, but you can only choose a few of them each round. Managing which ones you will do, along with your time(represented by stopwatches) is important as you choose a path for victory. My wife and I played this last week and really enjoyed it. There are a few things which you may want to be aware of: +4135 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Satisfactory + +If you've played Fluxx before, or want a safe first time purchase, it's worthwhile. It won't make the sole basis of a 4 hour game night, but is a good filler. +Most matching games feature a maximum of 48 cards (24 matches). Those cards are flimsy and are not likely to survive childrens enthustic play. Big Trucks and Diggers Matching Game features 72 cards (36 matches); these cards are made of heavy card stock that is approximately 1/16 thick. The number of matches you choose to use when playing this game can vary depending on the childs age and memory skills. The box is also very sturdy; it closes using a magnetic flap rather than being a conventional two-piece unit. Plastic dividers keep the cards organized inside the box. I appreciate these details since they can add to the games durability. +8095 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased this for when my niece spends time with me in the summer! We had a great time and enjoyed it very much! Would recommend this to anyone with children, looking for a child safe, fun and entertaining game! +957 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A gift for my granddaughter +6963 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very nice. The notepad got destroyed right off the bat, but that's my kids for you. It's also slightly larger than we thought. But good quality and solid. +9569 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Love this thing! It's a great educational toy for in the car. My daughter spent quite a bit of time looking at the numbers, and then started using it as parts of other play situations. It became a computer for ensuring proper information when playing doctor, among other things. My only beef, the numbers underneath are a little hard to see. But I really appreciate the non-electronic nature of this toy. No batteries, no noises and lightweight! + +7556 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Solid and love it, all the coin, monies and the credit card, really like that. + + + +8050 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a gift +768 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 So much fun!!! Long pamphlet for instructions so take time to study the rules before playing.. once you figure it out it really is a fun game!! +That in a nutshell is how you play the game. Now, for my thoughts and review of the game. For starters, I love that this is a card game. It is portable and fits in your pocket, so you can take it with you wherever you go. Secondly, the rules aren't overly complicated. I know I wrote a lot about it, but after you play through it once, it makes sense what you can and can't do, and the learn curve is very shallow. Third, I LOVE the theme for this game. In the gaming world, there are a lot of themes that are overused including general fantasy, zombies, and H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulu for some reason. There aren't a great deal of time travel games, so this is a gem. So I recommend when you're playing the game, take your time. Read the characters. Read the different cards. There was a lot of thought and effort that went into each of these cards, the backstories of the characters, and the alternate histories. It's not only creative, but it's a very clever game of hypotheticals. How would the world be different if Lincoln hadn't of been assassinated or if the Titanic wouldn't have sunk? The results aren't always good in the game. In fact, you might end up triggering World War III. +4607 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I've been playing Scrabble for years, and just got a chance to try Bananagrams for the first time a few weeks ago. I really like it! With everyone trying to complete their own boards simultaneously, it's a very fast-paced, energetic game. Bananagrams works well with just a couple of people or a larger group. Since each round lasts just a couple of minutes, if someone wants to get a snack or go to the bathroom or something, they can just sit out a round and nobody else has to wait. + +8835 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is high quality and worth every penny!!!!! My kids love it! It's fun and easy and sounds great! + +For our audio review, check out our audio review at [...] +This is a great two player game that takes less than 15 minutes to play (once you understand the concepts). +5070 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We just played tonight with our 7 & 10 year olds. I was surprised at how quickly our 7 year old caught on! None of us had ever played before but this will become and easy family game for all of us. Quick learning curve. +4504 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bananagrams is so versatile. We do play the game the way it's intended to be played, but we also break them out for sight word review, leaving messages for others. Our Elf on the Shelf even gets into it before Christmas, leaving notes for the kids saying, "Behave Yourselves" and things like that. Totally love this and the bag included for storage is VERY appreciated. +1474 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What a fun game! Got it for my grandkids but my adult sons also loved it. The whole family joined in on an evening of fun. Probably for age 8 and up. Each player draws cards for their destinations and then chooses other cards for the appropriate paths to the destination. Points are earned for the various trips and moves. Lots of pieces (trains)are needed to play and can't be lost so I marked it a little down on durability. Good for learning maps, math, and making choices. The older ones used strategies to block each other but the younger ones were content with making it to the right city. Everyone kept very attentive and wanted to play again and again. +9336 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a great drum. It is extremely sturdy (My child likes to sit on it as well as play it), and fun to play with. The mallets and drum seem like they will hold well. + + + +Ticket to Ride is easy to teach and learn, fun to play over and over again, and doesn't take too long to get through (most games lasting under an hour). The game doesn't suffer from a lot of random chance (e.g. no dice rolling) and relies on player planning and skill to win. There is the option to go after other players and have a pretty cut-throat game, but that is not necessary to gameplay if it is not your style. +6148 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 You get what you pay for! +4333 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our family loved playing banagrams when we received it as a gift. Then my 87 year old Mom and her friends discovered that it's fun to have the tiles handy when working on word jumbles. Moving the tiles around is good for dexterity, and it's fun to see the words form from the movable tiles. +Enjoy. +9146 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 These short curves are really a nice addition to your wooden railway system as they make it possible to create small and sharper turns than you can do with the normal curved track (33342). The downside of this track is that it may be a bit difficult for longer engines (like the mighty red battery-powered engine) to drive through the curves. However, if the tracks are laid without too many "bumps" at the connecting points the larger engines will manage to drive through it as well. +8527 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 It's a fun game. You could play the exact same game with a standard deck of cards, but the little pictures make this one kind of cute and fun for kids. +6547 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 This is such a piece of junk! I can't believe Hasbro would make something so inferior! Thin plastic barely sits flat. Cheap paper graphics that sits under plastic. The bubble is smaller than original and the dice can barely tumble around. Box is thin like cereal box. A disposable game that won't last long. I wish people would return just to get the point across! + +This is a serious extension for the Scum Villainy faction, adding important ships, people and upgrades. +How to play: + +7325 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We play this often. Easy to transport. Easy to teach. Tons of fun and chaos! +Useful to teach kids about money, but it is even better as simple toy, opening and closing the drawer to take money seems to be the most fun part after all. +7163 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This card game is so fun and addictive. It's great for kids (my 7 year old loves it) and for adults! +5077 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My grand kids love this game. It works for the 5 to 12 year olds. + +3214 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 need to be able to weave a story on the fly +Do yourself a favor and get this game and see for yourself. +1305 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We loved it! So much so that we had to order the card game version. This is definitely a game everyone should have in their collection! +8627 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My grandkids loved it +6394 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is by far the best cash register! I bought for my 6 year old and have gifted to others. Looks like real money- great to teach money but most important its an awesome play toy! +-1 Hard to move springs +8225 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Still a cute game with the updates, I do think it's a little on the cheaper side as far as quality but it's a board game and not played with constantly so I'm not too worried about that. +6154 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My sons have bought several of these over the years. They are very fun. But when you are learning to use them, you crash them a lot. And they are not sturdy enough for that repeatedly. They end up buying replacement parts. But that hasn't deterred them. I think we have had 4 or so new ones in our house. We have a high ceiling in our living room which makes it especially fun. +7244 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great fun for children. This is a game that is fast action, and loud. It is good for all ages!! +6346 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My 6 year old loves this game, of course he does it's battleship. Game is made more poorly than I recall.... + +6184 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 overall I like. some very small upgrade`s and it is a very fun crawler, it`s worth the price. you shouldn't be disappointed. + + +8514 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game. teaches some interesting concepts of probability and chance. +Overall, these books so far have really grown my son's attention to detail, but some things seem too high of a level for him like matching opposites or things that go together. Also, some pages are pretty hard for him since he is only two (like matching flowers when all the options are red and yellow - could only tell them apart by the petals/center sizes). Clearly this is meant for 3-5 year olds, but I am very surprised how a little instruction of how to distinguish between objects, then the light goes on and my son figures out the matching. +8066 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A Christmas gift for my grandson. He is 13. +8372 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Get ready for a few laughs with the kids. Don't compare it to the stress you suffer over bad HMO's or the decline of civilization as we know it. +1809 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son loves elf on the shelf! Is enjoyed every part of this for Christmas! definitely worth the money! +1702 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This creature possesses dark magic. I thought I was going to have to move him around like other people say they do but I didn't. He was always in a different place in the morning. At first the things "Jingle" did were pretty cute; making the toilet paper into a snow man, writing notes to my child in cute backwards handwriting...but then things started to get strange. The first morning that I became concerned was when I found him in my daughters bathroom in front of the mirror that had writing on it. I expected it to say something cute like "It's almost Christmas" or "Happy Holidays!" but what I found was "REDRUM". Being horror movie fans, I just chalked it up to him trying to mess with my husband and I and told my daughter that he was just being silly. But then the next morning, I found something VERY disturbing. Jingle was sitting in my daughters floor with one of her barbies in A NOOSE. After this occurred I told my daughter I thought it was time to send Jingle back to the North Pole and ask Santa for a new elf. She was confused but said okay. So I took the elf and tossed him in the dumpster at our apartments and went to Target to purchase a new one. Due to being freaked out over the elf I had received I purchased a girl one this time. That night I showed my child her new Elf on a Shelf and she named her "Lulu Bell". That evening I placed Lulu Bell in the Christmas tree and the next morning she was still there! I was elated that I had finally gotten a normal elf and that Jingle was gone. I went to bed that next night after putting Lulu Bell on the couch with a book on her lap and the next morning I woke up to my daughter screaming. I ran into the living room to find Lulu Bell on the floor with what I assumed was ketchup on her neck and there beside her was Jingle, with a butter knife in his hand and "ketchup" on it as well. I quickly called Amazon and informed them of the situation and then I found out, they had never sent me an elf because the one I wanted was on back order.... +3. The event cards generate all sorts of chaos, but they feel too repetitive. ex - despite a good shuffle, 7 barricaded doors in just 2 player turns is a bit boring. +4343 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game. We enjoyed it. + +Great toy! It fell out of favor around age 5 though (thankfully his 2yo old sister now enjoys it). So I would say it is best for ages almost 3-5. +Interaction is high in this game. Nothing inspires audible grumbling like someone overtaking your position as majority share holder. And the table is abuzz when mergers happen. +8958 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 There is a reason most of these reviews are one star this toy doesn't even deserve 1 star all I can say is loved the ideal, didn't love the toy please save your money and PASS + + +3146 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Three mouse for the price I paid, I'm really satisfied. it has been a year and still works very well. I love Optical mouse because it doesn't need battery and save some environmental hazzard. +3096 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 If you have to run a legacy DOS program, it's getting progressively harder to find these things. +All in all, I think this is a great introduction to actual banking, as well as a great way to watch money grow over time. Very neat, and great quality. +The book included with the elf tells the story of how Santa knows whether a child is naughty or nice by sending an elf to their home to report back to him each night. As a parent you can put the Elf somewhere and then your kids can play hide and seek to find him. They can also tell the Elf what they want for Christmas and how they would like Christmas to play out. + +4907 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The game is as easy or as challenging as the age of the people playing. +8427 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 The game is kinda fun and my son loves it, but it's so cheaply built and over priced! The plastic breaks too easily, nothing sits right and the slightest bump knocks everything out of place. If your kids aren't asking for it, get them something else! +688 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great tool to teach and I llustrate financial management to kids and adults. I don't use this to actually put money in it. I use it as a tool in teaching financial management. I love how each bank is colored differently (red, blue, green) to be easily distinguished from one another. These do not hold a lot of money, but does hold quite a bit. I relabeled my banks to be 10% Save, 10% Tithe, and 80% Spend (Expenses). I just put a white label on the front of each bank. I love that the banks fit like a puzzle making a hexagon shape which takes up less space and is easy to transport rather than have three separate squares that don't fit so nicely together. +1008 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is an awesome strategy game. One of my new favorite games next to Settlers of Catan. + + +4309 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game for my husband and me. Keeps our minds sharp and thinking of words not normally used on a daily basis. It can be challenging! + +6039 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Games like Formula D are a perfect example of the importance of theme in a game. At a fundamental level, there isn't much of a difference between this game and Chutes and ladders. You roll a dice and you move. Of course there are things like different dice that correspond to the gears in a car, points that correspond to things like engine, brakes and tires that wear out as the race progresses. These are the things that mechanically make the game different. But the theme of being in a race with up to 9 friends is what makes it fun. We've been racing each other since we could crawl so a race to the finish line is the most natural thing to anyone, even if they don't play board games. A game takes less than an hour and rules can be explained in less than 10 minutes. The board has 2 sides that feature different tracks and has advanced rules once you want to bump the complexity a bit. A great game for groups or family but plays well with even a few players. +There are new counters made from the nice chunky card of the original game; Inserts for the monsters, a new kind of puzzle which challenges the keeper (yes, you read that right) rather than the players, allies which may throw in with investigators for a time, more wound counters and more sanity counters (including some much-needed "five brains" counters). There are some additions to the "tile features" counters - the boat and two different kinds of pitfall. +478 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My husband and myself love this game. I am not a good speller and I can play this game and win. It can be a pain at times because of some of the rules but we bend them from time to time! You can build any where from 2 letter words to 10 depending on the stage of the game you are on. Some times the smaller words will bring the most points! We have 2 sets now! I keep one at work to play at lunch. Yes you can play solitaire! But I play like it's 4 people playing and I don't cheat to win a hand. Love it love it love it! +5926 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Executive Summary: +5992 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fantastic set of upgrade cards to bring your Firefly board game to the next level. +7606 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this for my son's third birthday but opened it up early to give it a try, check it out. It's all perfect, and I'm hoping my son will catch on, on just how to play soon. +8908 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 Cards get sticky and unplayable after just a dozen games! + +3310 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought these for the "Jamaica" Board Game treasure cards. +7351 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It's Candy Land! Still a favorite. No more to be said. +5902 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a great filler game for your game nights! It doesn't take much time and its really easy to teach to the newest of players. + +The biggest change is the concept of "fate" as an attribute. Each character gets a Fate value along with his others. These are basically re-rolls that can be used to re-roll a single die OF YOUR OWN. It adds a twist to the game and will speed it up. +6962 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 All the children were arguing over who would get to play with it first. +6314 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 3 year old LOVES technology! She loves to play on the computer, kindle, smartphones, and her LeapPad Ultra. She is a big fan of anything touchscreen. She can figure out technology faster than most adults - this day in age, huh? I was really happy when I was asked to review Painting Lulu because it looked like it would be right up her ally! Painting Lulu is essentially a 3-in-1 activity book. The Meet Lulu book is 32 pages made from 100% recycled paper. Your child can color and draw in it just like any normal activity book. In addition to this, you should download the Painting Lulu app on your Kindle, iPad, or iPhone. You child can use this app just as any other coloring app. Meet Lulu comes with a super cute and fun crayon stylus! My daughter loved using this to color in the app on our iPhone! She thought it was the coolest thing ever! Each page in the book has a QR code so you can scan it (using any QR scanner app) and create a blank coloring page. You can also use the Painting Lulu app to take a photo of a colored page and add to it using the app. The activity book itself features all recyclable items as the characters which I am a huge fan of. We recycle everything we can in this house and I love that this drives it home for my daughter! Painting Lulu also has a one-click share feature so your child can share their creations with family and friends! Overall, this product is really cool and I think a lot of kids will like it! I know coloring is a favorite pastime in our house with two little kids and this puts a new spin on it. My daughter has been using the crayon stylus since it came. She enjoyed using it to color a LeapPad Ultra app that she has (Scout and Friends). + + I hate to tell you what to do but +9951 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This was an inspired choice of Easter gift from my mother to my four year old son. I must admit I was horrified when it arrived, but we diligently set it up and used the included coupon to apply for the cup of caterpillars. When they arrived they were tiny and barely moving - I thought they were dead. They slowly started moving more and more. Then one day we thought one of them had been eaten by the others! He was all in chunks!! Turned out that was the first time they shed their skins. They kept doing it, until they were enormous. I shuddered whenever i saw them, they were so disgusting. But my son was busy reading the national geoepgraohic live cycle book my mother had sent him (I reccomend getting this) collecting them leaves, and tending to his caterpillars. Eventually they grew very big and started building their chrysalis's. Still disgusting!! We then rearranged the cup lid so they hung down from it. Then yesterday we watched as five beautiful butterflies emerged. My son was delighted! It was truly incredible, their crumpled wings opened up and slowly turned from brown to beautiful colors. We fed them pineapple, watermelon and orange and they all feasted. This morning we collected fresh flowers for their breakfast, then went outside and set them free. They emerged one by one and did huge shaky loops of the garden as they tried out their wings for the first time. They soared around us in bigger and bigger loops - it was incredible. +7.) Time and Players: The game runs quickly, because the decisions are important, but don't bog the game down to much. I was impressed with how well the game scaled, but found that the two-player game was much different than a five-player one. Both were fun, but needed different tactics. +When we need a change of pace, we like to divide all the tiles evenly, and then choose a theme like Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings. Trying to make every word match the theme is much less fast-paced, but makes for a super fun challenge. =) +174 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Quality little swimming fish. +6462 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 always a family favorite +2394 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 These are my daughters favorite books. She is 15 months old. She has learned how to press the sensor to get the music to play. I bought two other ditty bird books because she loved the first one so much. I know they are expensive, but they are worth it to me. +5809 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This has been fun for my 10 year old son and I to work on. The numbers are fairly easy to read and we've had fun trying to guess what we are drawing. +Do not start this game with people who are not ready to play a long game that can be sometimes tedious but also at times very exciting! + +5144 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I really enjoy playing this. I do recommend it and think families will have fun with it. +I find games like this a waste of time for me though. If I'm going to invest countless hours into a single play, I want my decisions to have a large impact on the outcome. This game does not provide that. +8941 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have had these dolphins for years. My two year old LOVES them. If the note isn't sounding clear you can blow all the water out of the dolphin and then it is clear. It's true that they don't link together very well, but we don't do that very much. One thing I should share: don't boil them! I boiled mine to clean them and now they look cracked and faded. + +Excellent gift idea for the budding Game Master or as a present to yourself for all your hard work!!! +7328 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game + + +8303 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game +I would highly recommend this toy. +2208 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It's fun! A little different than Apples but still fun. +8219 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game was recently updated to include stupid things like a cell phone, a green gas cloud coming out the back end and a toilet. Seriously? I feel like I'm living in the movie "Idiocracy" where everyone giggles every time reference is made to farts or butts. It took me some time, but I finally found a CLASSIC version sold by amazon. There is still one change from when I was a kid in the 80's - they've added an ice cream cone in Sam's head for "brain freeze." This version, unlike the "gas" version, still comes with the "operation" cards and money. This is apparently something that was done away with in the newer version. Love the classic game, it works beautifully and I would buy it again. +6676 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Great game! +8890 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Created in 1906 as an alternative "card" game for those who believed that regular cards were sinful and of the devil, Rook is a game that people of all ages will enjoy playing. My family has played Rook since I was a very young child and I've never gotten tired of playing the game. I've enjoyed playing the game with my grandparents, aunts, and uncles as well as college students. There are several different styles of game play, depending on the number of people you have (2-6) and depending on how challenging you want the game to be. Rook is a great game for families to play and I recommend it to anyone looking for something a little bit different from the norm. +9419 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 As a homeschool family I bought this to help my son learn his multiplication tables. The product is good over all but it would be better if the answers showed up clearer when the button is pushed. The answer is a little hard to see. +Overall, this is a fun, highly competitive card game that takes some patience starting out but holds plenty of entertainment value and does justice to the GoT theme. +8907 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 18m Grandson loves it. He bangs it very hard, throws, sits and stands on it. Very sturdy. Sounds good. More than a toy drum. Would highly recommend. +I got rid of it in a yard sale for $2. I hate the new versions of old classics. + +All in all this is great. The races have been alway tight for us. No one has been left in the dust and felt hopeless. We always have had a mad dash to the finish line. I definitely recommend this game as well as the expansion tracks. + +the packaging is great, perfect to display, or if you want to open, its completely collector friendly, which is a huge plus to me +Simply stated, Infiltration is completely flat and lifeless. I feel nothing towards it and I intend on selling it soon. Players don't care about the characters and the way the game is tailored players don't care who wins the game. Sadly I feel no sadness when I kill a company worker in the building and some innocent employee getting "knocked-off"? (Is that necessary? Most thieves aren't interested in murder on top of their stealing crimes). In Infiltration there is no greater alliances with other players and no consequences to almost anything. And when you don't care who wins and when you the player is dead to the circumstances, why play it? +The E-Wing is as powerful as an X-Wing (3), more agile (3) and has stronger shield (3), but less hull (2). It is as maneuverable as an X-Wing with a straight speed up to 5, perform a Koiogran turn at speed 4 and 3 at a cost of stress, but has green turn at speed 2 instead of 1. +I thought I understood pain. As a former attendee of the high school educational regimen, an attendee who was not terribly liked nor disliked, I thought I understood apathy. Demoralization. These feelings are mere constructs when laid bare against the foundation of Brimstone, they facsimiles of an emotion which is only a shadow-sliver of its true strength. As a frequenter of the streets of Arkham, I have become hardened against the potential dark waiting with its maw and its suckers and its gaping hate, and in those things I find no fear. Only resolve. But in Brimstone, in the mines outside the dust of an old west town where inspired abominations pull at the fabric of our world, my will was tested. It was broken. There is no love for my avatar now. No bond forged by tribulation. Having suffered defeat upon defeat in the face of these eldritch terrors, I dash my pawn willingly against the beach of that sharp shore, thinking not of their sacrifice, but of my lust for revenge. +The next phase is the Arkham Encounter Phase. Depending on where you investigator is, you will be on a street (between locations) or on a location. If you are in a street, nothing occurs. If you are on a location, then there is either a gate on the location or there isn't. If there's no gate, you shuffle that particular location's deck and draw a card and resolve it; sometimes it will help your character out with some cash or a spell, and sometimes it will spawn a monster on you or drain your sanity! If there's a gate on the location, you have to go through the gate and go to the other world on the gate token, or you have to try to close the already explored gate (someone has already gone through it and returned). +On an alternative "game" side of it...my six-year-old daughter and I like creating a giant grid of related words. Since Bananagrams comes with TONS of usable letters, it's easy to make a lot of words, great and small ~ perfect for a little cutie pie whose spelling vocabulary is growing :) + + +For example: +This one has become the most played deck we have. Highly recommended. +Too bad that they won't make the "Elves" in the USA. +562 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is such a fun game. It is like Scrabble and Rummy combined. We can't stop playing it. I would recommend this game to any word builder enthusiast! +2860 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It was live at firsts sight for my one year old grandson. Llama Llama Red Pajama is his favorite story. The Llama is very soft and already well cuddled! +Balance +3385 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 10 year old son already had Encyclopedia of Immaturity (Klutz)Volume 1 and loved it. We purchased that one at a Scholastic sale so unfortunately it did not have the spiral binding. This is important because there are pages that need to be photocopied or scanned and printed and the book binding does not lend itself to this. +Overall, we found this a relaxed game, probably best for teens and adults. There's not much strategy and we didn't notice any educational opportunities. Our most competitive players were a bit disappointed in the game, since there's not much you can do to improve or to plan ahead. The movie clips were funny, though, and it's easy to socialize while you play. +6655 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our little one is just under three months old now and is getting more and more interested in this rattle. The ribbed rods are perfect for her to grab with her little hands, and the large openings allow her to safely put her whole arm through the toy to "wear" it. She's fascinated by the bright colors and sharp rattling sound that the beads make - I can distract her from fussing by shaking it in front of her eyes. She's also starting to mouth the toy and even though it's hard plastic it doesn't seem to bother her in the least. All in all, this is a great value for $10! +2240 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 These are good. Not a game at all though. Just cards with two questions to chose from as each person draws a card. Some interesting, some super easy (what's your favorite color?), some can provide interesting conversations. We use it at dinner time. Each of us draws a card and asks everyone else answers each question. For a family of 5 (plus toddler) it takes about 10 minutes to each do a card. + +8587 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Interactive toy perfect for hand manipulation and boredom buster. +6204 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Lots of support out there as well, well built, fun to set up home challenges especially using fans cleverly! Worth the money - cripes that 4 coffees. +6943 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is another great toy by learning resources. I bought this for my daughter when she was 2. Now 3 she still plays with it daily. She loves punching the numbers in, but her favorite part is the open button that ejects the spring loaded drawer. I put the coins away until she is older, because I fear she will choke on them. She loves the paper money and the pretend credit card. I can see her and my son playing with this toy for at least 10 more years. It is very durable. She has dropped it many times and it hasn't skipped a beat. The plastic is high quality. I would definitely buy this product again. +8652 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 You can play this game with kids, and the adults won't get bored. Heck, you could even play a few rounds with other grown-ups, though you wouldn't replace poker night with it :) +3668 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 These should be the same price as stickers... They are basically removable stickers not impressed not really worth any stars free magnet on my phone book is stronger than these +5092 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 You'll Love it!! +There are plenty of familiar concepts, but they're all filtered through the Game Of Thrones mindset rather than tapped or untapped for instance you have kneeling and standing. Rather than something like mana you've got gold to use, with unspent gold going back into the box at the end of each turn due to taxation. +5081 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We LOVE this game!!! We play it with just a few of us, two of us, or at parties. It is easy enough you can play with children, while drinking, or on vacation. Simple concept, but challenging. We buy it as a wedding gift and attach the normal gift card to it. Its a fin little think to have around. + - the rules - they are incredibly easy to explain + +(You could just google the rules and play with your scrabble tiles too.) +3612 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fate Core (which is absolutely necessary for this product, introduced a refined RPG system that focuses on story above all else. Your characters are tough and are nearly-unkillable but the can be maimed to the point of uselessness and it might be time to make a new character while your old one retires to a background character or a source of quests for revenge due to their injuries. Fate allowed players and the GM to create worlds and scenarios together leading to a great overall understanding of the universe everyone was playing in and the broad and simple rules made it a snap to learn. The big rub was that SOME things NEEDED depth, how magic works, how cybernetic enhancements would change characters, and the negative aspect of using too much of these things with one character. While Fate Core touched on how to balance stuff like this, the Fate System Toolkit refines it and offers much easier source material to fine craft the universe you and your players game in. Not only a good GM tool, the System Toolkit is best shared with players to get a good idea on how to handle the game more fluidly. +8847 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The drum quality is good. Just be aware it is pretty big and the sound is very big. Make sure your neighbor can accept the shocking sound +8530 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Best card game ever. You can play with your small children and not get bored. + + +7948 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 So far the game works fine. It has all the pieces, and the buzzer and light works well. + +3289 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought as a gift. He loved it! +7205 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Excellent game. Easy to grasp the basics but every hand is different dynamics. Good for families and even young children will grasp the basics pretty quickly. +7019 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 grand daughter loves it , she is six years old this keeps her going. only thing she says grandpa can you help me fill up the drawers with any loose change. smart girl. +7018 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My 6y/o is having a blast w it. It's thick plastic so it's durable enough to survive his and his 2y/o rough housing. My son plays store and can now give correct change +7969 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 'twas birthday time +- The reciver has a fan which runs constantly after the receiver has warmed up. The noise of the fan is unobtrusive, but is noticeable when audio levels are very low. My equipment is in a cabinet with a vented back so the fan noise is no problem for me. +9460 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Its not a voucher if you have to pay 7.95. I regret buying this as a gift. +1087 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game for all ages. +1635 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Adorable and a super fun tradition. +7703 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Perfect game for kids. They loved it! +I have to say, our game came in a smashed up box due the delivery. Amazon made right with us. Their customer service is amazing. +2709 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Nice game, we play during lunch on the weekends. It's not all state fact based (like it might ask how many trees are on the card) but it's fun and educational and a 10 minute game. + + +When I first encountered this game, I was turned off by the train focus, but really the trains are just a conduit to express the game play concept. There could be many other environments applied to the game. +3978 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 High quality and fun expansion of EH, I never thought EH could have big expansion like this +This "Healing Words" product inspires me to focus on healthy ideas, positive thinking, comfort, joy, and personal wellness. It's perfect for having an "internal" dialogue with yourself or for leaving encouraging messages for a loved one to find (say on the refrigerator or other steel surface). I enjoy using this kit with the "Haiku" word kit tiles because the natural, peaceful themes are compatible. +my son is four and love this game - its even fun/challenging for adults +The quality is top-notch. The tiles are two-sided, and each of the sets contains numerous add-ons that allow nearly endless varieties of terrain for encounters. +The game takes time to learn, but it's a lot less complex than Magic: The Gathering. Because it's a LCG, the initial expenditure to have a competitive deck is much less. So that makes it more newbie-friendly than Magic. It's an excellent game, with extensive replayability. The addition of expansion packs will further increase its longevity -- again at a far more reasonable price than for Magic. The game's graphics are excellent -- neon and noir -- done in exciting comic-book style. + + +2974 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Cutest little monkeys and accompany the storybook very well! I have purchased multiple sets as gifts and they are always a hit! Great quality too! +7749 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 For anyone looking for a fun and different type of game, I would highly recommend this product. It is fun for a variety of ages. It is quite a loud game, so plan your playing location accordingly and have fun! + +The pompom maker is sturdy and easy to use. I had no problem creating pompoms easily my first try. +8142 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Best Age: 3 +Con...The pilots/cost. It is a bit of a challenge to field effectively. This was to be the ATF of SnV but, like the E and Defender, it comes out a bit squadron cost pricey. Guri seems to see the most use, any pilot who had an ability that grants effectively an action is usually worth it, and she pairs well as a Mindlinked elite. Keep an eye out in the future though, this ship being a bit too expensive for what it does might get fixed. I expect FFG will do something akin to the cannon/primary weapon TIE Defender title when SNV eventually gets a veterans or aces box set. +There are no catch up mechanisms in place in this game, so someone can run away with it, but its a game where you can always claw for second place. That is, you're personal economy will never be destroyed beyond repair leaving you sitting watching everyone else at the table rejoice in spoils. I find a lot of satisfaction being able to claw for second place myself. This is because I, like you have the ability to synthesis happiness. +4420 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Such a fun game!! Can't find it in most stores and if you do it's much more money! +9836 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This tent is a great size. I'm using it now to put his toys inside. However we will be using it outside alot. +Every player essentially goes broke in the first turn. The obvious strategy at the beginning is to purchase buildings that allow you to produce more goods. Beyond that, there are a couple of options you can play: +371 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 They're nice, big, colorful stickers. You don't get very many for the price, but it's hard to find Peppa stickers anywhere else. Shipping took a few weeks as expected. +2253 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We love the elf on the shelf idea. We've had fun with him the last 2 years. He is a bit heavier than the "real" elf on the shelf so some of the crazy configurations I tried to do with him didn't work out. He's very top heavy. He's cute as can be and the book is cute too. + +1866 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This is the first year we did this and my kids love their elf. The only thing that would make this better is having ideas with it. You have to find ideas on Pinterest or the web. To have it all in one place would be better. +1548 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This was as expected. +7217 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 3 year olds first board game. She loves it. We have a lot of fun playing it. +1175 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is really fun for all ages +5055 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is simple, fun, and enjoyable for almost every age. +3853 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Super high quality, & beautiful! The eggs in the box can be switched around so she can hold whatever color you want her to. I love GOT so I had to have this. So happy with her. Although some people might not like that it doesn't look exactly like the actress that plays Daenerys (in the face). However, the show is based on the book so it doesn't matter. +I suspect people who find Settlers of Catan and Dominion fun but too involved might like this. + + This tool is a quality all the way. It feels very solid and has weight to it. I plan on using this 5 Star too for a long long time. +5169 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun for kids and adults! This has been our favorite Christmas game purchase thus far. Scoring is a little complicated for kids, but we just play without scoring when playing with our 5yo. I like that it's a fun game to play even if there's no one "winning". +Pros: +Then you move your spaces according to the rules of the game. It's pretty easy stuff - except for the questions. They are hard! I consider myself a movie buff but I have learned since playing this game that I need to brush up on my comedies! It makes me want to get an Action or Sci-Fi version so I can see if I actually do know my stuff! +133 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My 12 year old son enjoyed the game - but it is hard convincing him to play. Time will tell if some of the excellent skills portrayed in this game transfer to real life. +208 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love this game, makes you think, but not too much. We have owned this game for years and purchased it for a friend because he liked it so much. + +1055 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 ... not because it's not a great gateway game, but because there's an even better version out there. +5820 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 kids love these! +Played at least 1 game with all beginner characters and read the descriptions for almost all of the harder characters. All of the characters are so unique, you never run into a character in which you think "Oh he is just another tank" or "This guy is just too strong". Most situations you look at a character and describe them as a tank, but they also do so many other things that it's kind of hard to call them a tank after reading into them. +518 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have had this game for over 4 years now and we absolutely love it! We are a family of 6 and play this game at least once a week. At first only the older kids could play, the younger kids played with an adult on a "team". Now we are all readers and everyone is able to play! This game is a lot of fun, such a small amount of money for so many years of fun! +915 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our new favorite board game. It is totally worth it and a great game for 4-5 people. It is what Monopoly should be. +9587 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I love this tent! I bought it to take on a trip to the beach. The description does say it is UV protected but I have heard mixed things on this fact. My son is 9 months so I applied sunscreen as well as used the tent. I purchased a battery powered fan to help with the airflow during the summer and put it outside of the tent. I also put a few heavier toys in the corners both for play and to help with the tent as it seemed to be light and I didn't want it to blow away. For the price of the tent you can't expect it to be perfect but it assembles in less then 5 minutes and it is small and lightweight and easily stored in the vehicle so you have it when you need it. +185 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great puzzle and size, our 2 and 4 year olds love it. + +4153 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I picked this game to play because my husband and I are fans of the television show. I have not read the books yet. So I wanted to see how this game was. I read others thoughts on this game. I do have to agree that if you have never played a living card game before than it will take a lot of patience to learn all of the rules. You will probably have to refer to them many times through out the play of the game to remember what step is next. Or you could go watch this video by the makers of this game on Youtube titled "A Game of Thrones: The Card Game Second Edition Tutorial" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1s54Wlgfyo +9577 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 really? My son didn't care for. He played a bit and I thought he would keep playing but he has not touched since we got it and the only time he played. I think it should have some type of sound to catch kids attention and keep them interacting/entertained. +9149 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Excellent product! My 9 month old is loving this gift! +8496 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Easy memory game. Lots of fun + +2410 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Kids love this thing. We named her Daisy. She hides every morning and the kids have to find her. Lots of fun. But now she's back at the N. Pole until next Christmas season. We miss you Daisy...come back soon. +A gorgeous, well-made game that's easy on the eyes, Ticket to Ride combines simple rules and nail-biting game play with a significant level of strategy. You can't ask for more in a board game. + +8448 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our Mensa game night group played this once... and then couldn't put it down. Very funny quotes, and it will trip you up - in one quote, it will be a very normal ending; the next one will be weird. So players can't get comfortable thinking "oh, I will always just pick the odd one" - as the answers are not consistent. People were crying with laughter, and it just got better as it went on, as we would refer back to previous answers. GREAT game. LOTS of cards - and I don't think anyone had to "pass" on any card, as each one had at least one quote players could work with. + +9431 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son loves it I managed to get the drum on sale for Christmas nice sound good quality sturdy colorful what more can I say its a Remo I would expect nothing less than quality two mallets came with it nice instrument cannot wait to purchase more my son has really opened up to music with these and even when he is banging away the drum is not annoying +We are very happy with him, and he now holds a permanent place of honor on her bed (when he is not being played with, that is!) +1516 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We play Games and this one is a favorite. Two can play but the fun factor raises as more people compete for roads. Highly recommended! + +If you have children, grandchildren, or great-grandchildren I cannot recommend this particular game highly enough to you....remember, EVERYONE LOVES DISNEY! Even if you are a Great Big Kid, like myself, run out and pick this wonderfully entertaining, laugh-filled, "Little Magic Box" and get ready for more fun than you have had in a Very Very long time....there are many hours of fun and laughter to be had with this fabulous game. Trust me, being the big kid that I am, I KNOW! +4400 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 hello, +9841 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Kids always love this +9368 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This drum is well made and has the feel of a real drum. My 1 yr old loves to drum on it, without the sticks, we've put those away until she's older. Great Quality, sturdy, stands up to her beatings. A little bigger than I thought, but my daughter doesn't seem to mind. +It is very cute for girl or boy. +Another great toy from this company is the telephone. +6881 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is really a lot of fun. It is perfect for road trips or playing with your spouse on the couch. I am 24 and I still get a kick out of it. Makes a great gift too. I got it for my MIL to "test" her aging abilities! +8030 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 this may be the new version, but it really is a nice game and fun to play. My 3 yr old son loves playing it and it is nice and sterdy board game and the game pieces are so cute... + +9590 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This was a gift for my granddaughter on her 7th birthday. At this point the caterpillars are still growing. It is very exciting for the whole family. Well run company. They ship so that you receive the caterpillars in 2 days. +767 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game enjoyable and pretty easy to get into, great gift. +- A fold-out board of the United States and southern Canada, plus a scoring track around the edge. The cities on the board connect through colored track lines, each line between one and six units in length. +Rules +The body parts come all attached on one piece of plastic so you will need to remove these before play can commence. I would also recommend a ziplock bag to keep the money and doctor/specialist cards in as there is no compartment in the game. The playing board measures approximately 8 3/4" x 15". +8474 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 kid likes it +8340 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Reminds me when I was a little girl. I loved this game. + +The only thing I would not recommend is mixing warm water and powdered egg whites together with this whisk, the tight coil quickly gets clogged. Aside from that, I use it for everything. + + Learning Curve +9593 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 BRIO is the most durable and has the best quality wooden train on the market. I would highly recommend having at least 2 sets of these pieces. My son uses them in his train roadway building every time he makes a train roadway. A definite must have. +7492 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My granddaughter loved this game. She played it with her Dad and had a great time. +4542 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 You can play by the rules, or make up your own. Who cares? Anything that gets a 10 year old boy interested in making words by looking at a bunch of letter tiles is number on with me! Great fun and great for building word, spelling and reading skills! Kid testes, mom approved! +2383 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I'm a fan of the Starz production of Spartacus. And now the board game. I will not open it, as it sits on the shelf with my other collectables. +239 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is by far my favorite out of the D&D Board Games. Fun and easy to learn. I even got my family to play it with me. +1494 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got for son for x-mas, just turned 7. He has always been thrilled with trains, and loves board games. Opened up on X-mas, was so surprised when he seen all the contents, and mapping. 3 days after the shock of the Wii wore off we started playing during his winter break. Now play at least once a week. He is getting better with the strategy of the game and point scoring. Can play in a short period of time, moves along fast once you learn how to play. It is a little more expensive then average board game, feel that is well worth it. + +I feel like the game assumes that by playing all your tiles you can go through the bag while filling your opponents stock with tiles they can't play as quickly. Except the first time you play you quickly realize that having a single tile isn't always as easy to play as a handful. Plus the game gives you the ability to ditch a tile at any time and trade it in for 3 more. It's just a nonsensical game where just happening to play the last tile wins you the game by a fraction of a second each time. +5482 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My kids (ages 3 and 5) love the Rudolph DVD Game. It works in much of the same way as a regular Scene It Game but it is simplified so that even my 3 year old can get the answers right. My kid's have watched Rudolph a few times but you don't need to know the movie to play this game (although it makes it fun to know the character's names). We did not play with the game board because I found it too confusing for younger children. We just played with the DVD and did not keep score. The DVD would show a scene and then ask a question related to the scene. An adult really needs to supervise for younger children who aren't familiar with the DVD remote control. My kid's really enjoyed it. The only problem I had was with the game board which was divided into 4 sections - my kid's couldn't really get the concept of it and I found it a little difficult to understand myself. Overall, a fun game. +Also: The trim is very sensitive and hard to get set. It will go off in one direction quickly if you don't get it right. Just do one click at a time and then fly for a few seconds because if you give it multiple clicks at once it will quickly veer off in the other direction. +5 stars. +3374 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is great revision of the original expansion set despite this means you have to spend the money again. And this revision makes the old one completely obsolete-so if you're like most of us Arkham players, that was money down the drain. But if you are like most of us Arkham players, you'll still spend the cash to buy this new revision and still think it's a great improvement. If you're a new player-you lucked out! Buy this product as it's pretty well play-tested as none in my group had a problem with this and thought it fixed a lot of issues from the original. +8896 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Exactly what I needed for a child's gift. +4467 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I LOVE this game! So much fun! +564 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 We love "SET" and were excited to play "Quiddler." +Cons: +4866 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I brought this as a gift for my 12 year old granddaughter who is a very bright student. She loves the challenge of these puzzles and was delighted to receive it. + + +5873 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Came in great condition. + +9089 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 lots of fun +7054 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son loves this cash register! + +9829 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 these are way too hard to open for my 2 year old. The first time I tried to open them, I had to use a butter knife to pry them apart. Have not really loosened by much after a few weeks of play. +9113 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My granddaughter loved it!!! + +8533 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A birthday gift for eight year old grandson. Now his favorite game. + +4569 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I like this little magnetic Haiku set. It is handy enough to tote right along with you. I do not use mine on the fridge. I spread the words out, and form poems right on the counter. Afterwards, I write the poem in my poetry journal. I have only one complaint. Although the box is lovely in its decor,I so wish this came in a metal box. Far easier to toss in your purse....no crushing. However, that said,I so like this item! +3100 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 the description says heavy weight polyester....they aren't lying...this is the best material ever....it is surely army strong....i love it...and im almost sure it will last for a very long time, even in the florida sun. +7713 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I had forgotten to write a review for this purchase. My daughter loved it back in the days. Now I have no idea where it is. Original Candy Land. +7256 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great learning tool. The bills are a tad hard to get out of the register but we love this toy +4540 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 These are fun to play with. I spent a week trying to fit every single word and I did it! and twice lol. I would like to buy more of a different subject to mix with it. fun for guest and when you are waiting on coffee or cooking or dinking around. + +6219 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Faster and larger than we expected. The car works great. It is low to the ground, so don't expect it to perform like a crawler. But works great on pavement, dirt and even grass. + +810 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game. +3864 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Well packaged, well priced +8804 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I got this for my son for his birthday when he was turning 7 and in the first grade. I was looking for something electronic to help him learn/practice multiplication and division before 2nd grade. The addition and subtraction were way to easy for him. He was at the time slighty above his piers in math. +4469 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love this game. Prefer it to scrabble because it's more simply in play, also the individual game play is more fun than playing on a group surface (although if you do want to play a group game, you could of course alter the rules and directions to do so). Really easy to get started, clean up, take camping or on vacations etc. 5 stars (: +Each category has challenges and appeals to different different people like guessing characters based on clues, or identifying movies based on scenes. The most fun though was the competitions (all plays) to see which team could guess movie or character FIRST based on the audio clips, scenes, characters, clues, etc.. For some reason those audio clues were especially exciting. +I'm writing this after playing my first game of Sons of Anarchy Men of Mayhem. I'm not a hardcore board gamer and neither is my girlfriend and friends. We do play some games lIke Catan, Pandemic, Ticket To Ride and some newer games like Dead of Winter, Betrayal at the House on the Hill (since the Tabletop show). I saw that this game was on sale for $25 and looked it up and the ratings were pretty positive. +Rating: 5 out of 5 stars if you play the Imperial Assault miniature game; 0 out of 5 for anyone else. + +I really enjoy playing Dungeon Roll. The quality of components are great and the theme really works well. The heroes and their special abilities really make the game for me as they provide unique strategies depending on your character. Dungeon Roll is just a great light dice game that can be taught and played very quickly. The base game doesn't really have much as far as player interaction is concerned, but I think most players will enjoy watching to see what other players choose to do as well. Now, with 3 or 4 players, the down time between turns lengthen and may result in people not enjoying the game as much. The game fits well for a nice 2 player game as one player can always be rolling dice (either as the hero or the dungeon lord). The game does have a large element of luck and that keeps the game different and challenging in its own way, but this may keep some gamers away that don't like a large element of luck in a game to mess up all their perfectly contrived strategies. The game retails around $19.95, so the price point is nice too. I am really looking forward to playing the Winter Promo pack and I can't wait to learn more about what they have in store for Dungeon Roll this year (I'm hearing that there will be some great things coming out). If you like dice games and you are OK with a large luck element and dungeon fighting theme, I think you should get it! I'm giving this game 4 Fingers Up or 9/10 Stars and that is How Lou Sees It! +--- + +5064 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Was a great deal worked perfect +I had bought this game for kids at a day care years ago and they liked it too. +Cons: +While the game is great; the packaging and card quality can be improved upon. Each card is a thick cardboard (similar in thickness to the "Game of Life" tiles) with the images printed on. This made the cards a little difficult to shuffle, and with children being a bit rough with this game, sometimes the images start peeling off. Also, for 75 cards, they're being packaged in a large square box, the cards take up less than 1/4 of the space. +4575 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game to play during the holidays. Games go fast with 4 or more players. Does not drag like Scrabble gets sometimes. +9259 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I have had this toy for eight years and is still played with. My son who loves electronics plays with this toy. +2079 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I am so excited to start a new Xmas tradition for my family! Can't wait for my kids to experience the Elf's magic. +Learning Curve: B+ +My friends and I really enjoyed this game - the questions were challenging which made it really entertaining. It contained a ton of clips from all 3 movies. There are also bonus features on the DVD such as Party Play - which is just continuous questions with no stopping. We had so much fun with this game and can't wait to have our next Twilight Night. Definately pick this up if you are a fan of the series. Please note that the questions are all based on the movies and not the books. +2858 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this for my 3 year old son, who loves to read Llama Llama books. This is such a cute plush toy. My son loves it! + +6107 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Product as described +6378 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great present for son or daughter. It makes a nice keepsake box. My son carries it in the house with his little toys in there. +3762 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Too confusing. I love Magic but i hated this game a lot. Amazed at all the positive reviews... It takes forever to set up. We never play it. +2973 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought these as a gift and loved it! Wished we had a set for us too! SO CUTE! +3623 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The figure is amazing. The detail in and quality of Dark Horse's GOT collection is incredible. I own the whole series and can't wait for the next one to be released! You will not be disappointed. +Dragons and Wizards...says it all! With the wonderful see-through vellum like pages, that make it "stained glass." Color it with marker, or anything else really (colored pencil, watercolors maybe), and the light shining through the page makes it look luminous and gorgeous! +6182 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 WITHSTANDING 6 MONTHS OF 5 YEAR OLD PLAYING ROUGHLY WITH IT. FLIES GOOD. FUN FOR THE PRICE. A LOT BETTER THAN WHAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE AFTER READING REVIEWS. +4762 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My nephew loved this! The book that is included is very educational! + +This is much more fun than scrabble! And you don't need to be a wordsmith to win. I even beat my brainiac hubby in 3 of the rounds and got to call out Bananas! The trick is to be willing to move your tiles around, even if you are proud of a certain word in your crossword puzzle and keep re-working it. + +9948 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This is a functional play tent for our little ones (have a two and a half year-old and one-year-old twins) and for the most part, we're liking it. Set-up is a snap and takes maybe 5 minutes. The tent itself holds its shape well and the included pad provides decent padding on the floor of the tent. The only issue we have with it is that there's not much weight to it and if only one child is in there and stands up, they could actually tip it over (luckily it was within arm's reach). We've largely taken care of that by adding additional padding underneath the included pad and positioning, but it would have been nice to know about beforehand. All-in-all, it's a nice play tent for the price and fun for the little ones. +I can't recommend this enough. And even if you've played before it comes with some great card-board figure holders, it comes with a map that is dry-erase friendly, and it comes with a set of dice! +5299 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We LOVE this game. 5 year old, 9 year old, 30 year old parents, 60 year old grandparents all love it and play together. +4463 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Fun +2209 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I had never heard of this game. We had sooo much fun playing it. So many laughs! +6698 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our 6 year old loves this game. We play it almost every day. The pegs do come out too easily if accidentally bumped and the container can be hard to shut, but it's a great game otherwise. +4049 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very happy to have this expansion. +7978 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Ordered this for our 4 year old granddaughter for Christmas. Exactly as described and was very impressed with the quality. Received it quckly. Would definitely recommend to anyone. +8197 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Its wrapped and ready to go under the tree. Package looks great and exactly like described. +1776 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our granddaughter and grandsons adore the Elf on the Shelf fantasy. Their moms take quite a lot of energy and imagination to place the elves in different positions and with different accessories each day prior to Christmas. The storybook is engaging. However, I'm not quite sure whether they truly believe that the elf is "watching" them each day. Yet, they enjoy the daily event of finding their elf. It has become a sweet memory of childhood. +949 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game for all ages! My 6 and 9 year olds were able to catch on quickly and loved it, and it was still challenging enough to keep the adults entertained. We look forward to getting more versions! +5763 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Daughter loves them!!! +8043 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game! +1025 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS GAME!!!! super fun! my entire family gets super into this game when we play it. my parents think its wonderful, and my older brother is gets super competitive!!!!! I would defiantly suggest this game for anyone ages 10+. My boyfriend liked it so much he bought it as a christmas gift for his parents! :) +9078 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this drum 5 years ago for my grandson. He loved it -- great sound, colors, and quality! Now my 8 month old grandson discovered it and loves it too! Honestly, you can't go wrong purchasing this drum. +(2) Kath Scarlet, a level 7 unique pilot that costs 38 points whose special ability reads, When attacking a ship +9787 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 had one as a kid, now my kids can use it, no batteries and silent in the car +394 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 love this doll and all the stuff she can stuff in her mouth! ha ha We bought the book that has the image of this particular doll on the front of it and my 3 year old is just mezmerized by how the images match. As we read the story she picks out and stuffs the corresponding item into the lady's mouth, which just tickles her??! lol The doll comes with every item in the story: fly, spider, bird, cat, etc... they do all fit and my daughter thinks it's fun to put these items in her mouth while counting and then take them out to make sure they are all still there. It's a nice little before bed treat for us both. +2674 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It can be a fun game for everyone. Its a trump based game where you need to guess the number of hands (tricks) you will win each round. If you guess correctly you get points, if you are wrong, you lose points. Each round you increase the number of cards you get, so it becomes more difficult to guess. Overall, people of various skill levels seem to enjoy this game, and it is a nice game to travel with since it doesnt take up a lot of space. +6388 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got this for my daughter for Christmas (2 year old) and she loves it. She's at the age where putting things in to boxes and taking them out can occupy her for some time. She loves putting little treasures in here and taking them all over the place. The size of the box is like that of a metal lunch box. Big enough for a toddler. We haven't had any problems with it and it is quite durable for a play date. +The only negative is a so-so construction of this version of the game. It works out fine. The pegs do not all fit int he compartment, so I have to keep emptying some before storage and adding them back when we play. The small scoring pegs can intermix with the larger code pegs if you aren't careful and will have to dig through the larger peg section to separate them. The smaller scoring pegs do not fit easily into the holes. It should be easier to insert and remove. The pegs are either inconsistently created or the holes are not precise. A few large pegs had small heads too which seemed strange, although not a problem. The compartment for the code maker is nice in that you can flip it down to expose the code when it is solved, but it is a little tough to get the pegs in there with the shield in the way and out when you are done. Also there is no way to completely cover the code if you want to walk away, so it is just the honor system. +5480 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Rather than stealing Rudolph's family, in this game, Bumble decides to steal the misfit toys. It's up to players to rescue the toys before Bumble gets six of them. Going around the physical game board, when a player lands on a toy in one of four different sections, s/he gets to play one of nine different mini games on the included DVD, randomly chosen. If successful, that player wins one of the misfit toy tokens (needing to eventually win three out of four different colors). The games are a mix of extremely easy to slightly challenging. This helps add to the ability for children through adults to play. One (Sled Race) requires a guess, so that all ages have an equal chance to win it. However, anyone who has watched the film many times will find four of the games easier to play than those who haven't, and adults will generally have an advantage over younger players. The games include identifying the voice of a main character, making a correct match (a memory game), and guessing which box Charlie is in after it has been shuffled about. The mini games are entertaining enough that it would be nice to be able to access them alone on the DVD, without having to play the board game, or be able to choose which ones to play--but you can't. +785 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a great game; part strategy, part luck, and all fun!! +This tile set is an amazing set for the price (I got it for just over $12!). The tiles are extremely well printed on very heavy card stock (2mm thick). Just poring over them and looking at the details has got me thinking about how I can use them. Others here have given excellent descriptions as to what you're getting, so I'm not going to repeat them and my set came exactly as all the others described. I am very pleased with what I got. So far I'm having fun just playing around with layouts! +2809 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is darling! Much better than the plush figures you can purchase in the stores. +4809 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 6 year old son loves the hands on toys. He has put this together and taken it apart so many times. He still needs to be reminded to "go easy" as it will break with rough play, but if you're willing to sit with your child and do this then it's a great educational toy for the both of you +78 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Very cute. A bit difficult for my 10 yr old daughter but with a little help she is getting the hang of it. Had to show her how to make the pom poms first and now she is doing okay. Product is very cute but I will say they don't provide enough yarn so be sure to have some extra on hand. +6026 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Based on the hit TV series, in Sons of Anarchy: Men of Mayhem players take the role of rival gangs out to control territory, accumulate contraband and reap the monetary rewards of illegal enterprise. +6360 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Purchased for our granddaughter. She is nine years old but is struggling to learn. We wanted something fun that would keep her interested plus help her to learn as well. It is a nicely made cash register. The money looks like the real money so that is helpful. The cash register is a calculator too. Our granddaughter likes that but I would rather she try to add in her head. That is something we are trying to teach her to do. I had read in the reviews that the drawer comes out rather fast. It does. But since I knew about it previous to purchasing I let our granddaughter know in advance and so we don't have any problems. +I don't like that my 17 year old beats me!! + +1833 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our family had so much fun with our elf this year! +5571 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 fun game +4104 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This converts the old base Set of Descent over to the 2.0 version. The 2.0 version is the way to go!!! I will never go back to the old version. I can not recommend it enough it allows you to use at least all the monsters and heroes from the older games. +Once we selected the right answer from the screen and it said we got it wrong. It also counted incorrectly the number of toys that Bumble had collected. +I love to play trading card games, but the time and expense are just too much for me theses days. FFG's Living Card Games are nice cause I can get my fix at a much lower cost, and if I do feel the need to expand, I can buy add-ons that I know exactly what I'm getting. If it sounds like you are in a similar boat, I encourage you to try out this or the futuristic Netrunner; both great games in my opinion. +There are a lot of kids who at my son's age already don't believe. i think this is a shame. You never get back this time in your life when you believe in magic and elves and Santa Claus. I want my son (and daughter who is almost 2) to have this for as long as they possibly can! It is very exciting to my son to go and look for Christopher each morning. Daughter is not quite into it yet, naturally, but I anticipate she will be next year. +5966 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 Sadly we already had this booster from the original game, but did not know it till we opened it =( +3702 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great quality. Love it. Thank you. +2792 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased this doll as a birthday gift for a three year old girl. The Pete the Cat series is a favorite at our house and we thought including this doll with one of the books would be a great introduction to the series. To date, I haven't found a single child who doesn't love Pete the Cat and his catchy tunes. As a mom, the books are equally fun to read. And they are great for children just learning to read as well. You won't find a more fun introduction to reading! + + +5819 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This was a gift for my twelve year old granddaughter. She loves these extreme dot to dot. She is a very bright student and loves the challenge of these puzzles. +1432 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We love this game. My 6, 8, and 10 year olds enjoy. Its fun enough that I never mind playing with them. Its easy to learn. It also has a very nice box with each game piece having a place. This makes for organized storage and game set up. Huge plus for this house full of toys. + +3241 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 "Shadow Over Innsmouth" is one of my favorite H.P. Lovecraft stories, and this expansion was a must-have for me. Extra monsters are always nice to add. The extra characters are also great, 16 this expansion!. The 96 personal story cards adds to the base game a lot of characterisation for the investigators. More Ancient Ones - 8 with this expansion! - are also very cool. The board also neat; I imagine the smell of rotting wood beside the sea every time I look at it. This is a neat expansion, I prefer it over Kingsport. +For example, in Fate Core, you start off with a high concept aspect (what your character is all about), a trouble aspect (a running theme of problems for your character), and a regular aspect (just something about your character flesh them out a little) and you can get up to two more as the game progresses. Aspects are invoked for all kinds of reasons by the player as long as they are relevent in some way to the task at hand. For example, if my high concept was 'Internationally known strong man' I can invoke this aspect to a bonus to get into a crowded bar because I am famous, I can invoke it to perform a feat of strength, or the DM can use it against me by making it difficult me for me to not call attention to myself because so many people know me. With 3 aspects it is great for beginners to learn the basics of how to invoke these aspects and it limits all the stuff the GM has to keep up with for random invoking and such when he is new. 5 is solid for advanced players who are into a pretty epic game with established characters and DM who knows what he doing really well. +753 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Really nice game +2020 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We've really enjoyed our elf "Ok" over the past two years. My girls wake up each morning for a month before Christmas wondering where Ok is. Sometimes I forget and have to create a diversion before they see me move him - hahaha. It makes the holidays all the more special. There is a tv special that tells a story about the elves, that helped them understand what was going on. +8382 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game. +9070 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A classic! Hard to go wrong here. +It appeals to the gamer with a set of upgrades for weapons and people. +*The box says 3-6 players, but we enjoyed it most with at least five players. Also, you could get creative and add a seventh or eighth player. +297 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Lots to like here, Good variety, outstanding artwork, good heavy cardstock, You won't create massive dungeons, but the ones you lay out will be very nice. I recommend using this along with one or two of the smaller tile sets, maybe Caves of Carnage and Urban Underdark. +4552 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My family loves this game. It's everything I love about Scrabble without have to worry about scores and it's much faster-paced. The little banana carrying case is great - makes the game really portable and perfect for bringing on vacation. We've had it for a few years now and it's held up perfectly. +2689 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Fun game for younger children....My four year old is a fan. +My students even like just using the tiles to spell words and sentences as a "word work" activity. +5437 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very fun as long as you know your facts! +After it was finally put together, our daughter immediately jumped into it. The only thing is that most 18 month olds can't figure out how to move with it - so you have to push them. Eventually - in 2 weeks, she figured out how to move backwards, but I don't think she has enough leg stregnth to move it forward yet. The other thing is that the space below (where the feet come through) is kind of wide, and she sometimes gets stuck down there. She is getting better with it. When her friends come over - they all fight over it (18 - 3 yrs old - especially the boys). The colors are bright, and the steering wheel moves and has a honking sound (and it also has a little toy storage area in the back). Our daughter likes it when we push her around, while she "talks" on her daddy's old cell phone. She still plays with it, but I think she will enjoy it more once she can move it forward on her own. + +7120 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The timeless game for toddlers. +The graphic designers have gone to a great deal of trouble to make the book look like a work-in-progress, with notes from "Billy" the RPG designer and "Harry" a playtester, and with the occasional aside from "Bob". Sometimes this stuff clarifies a rule, much as a sidebar would in any other rulebook. Sometimes they are simply running in-jokes. + + +The third thing a player may do is play cards to place their train cars on the board. A player may play one through six cards of the same color (including wild cards), to place the same amount of train cards on a corresponding line on the board. For example, Las Vegas is connected to Salt Lake City by an orange line consisting of three spaces. Three orange cards must be played to put three trains of that player's color on those spaces. No more players could then place anything between those two cities, and if players want to connect those two cities with their lines, they'll have to go around the long way (if possible). Gray lines can have any color cards played to place trains on them, but the cards played must match the number of spaces in the gray line, and all of the cards must be the same color. When placing trains, the player doing so receives points - 1 point for one train placed, 2 points for two trains, 4 points for three trains, 7 points for four, 10 points for five, and 15 points for six trains. Some cities have two lines connecting them, both of which can be used in a four or five-player game. In a two or three-player game, however, once one of these lines has been used, the other cannot. +My two main complaints are: +4505 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 20 to 30 year old children loved this game when I gave them all one for Christmas. Compact and fun +9467 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Easy to put up, easy to take apart, big enough for my baby plus her curious cousins lol +2573 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 14 month old son absolutely loves this book. My wife and I read it to him multiple times a day. He loves touching the monkey heads and the repetition. He book seeks out the book and has a motion to indicate that he wants this specific book! +My 7 year old couldn't wait for us to put the wreath up tonight, knowing that when the wreath is up, Joey Shelf will come. The wreath is the first place we find him every year. I know that this could be his last year to "believe", so the excitement he finds in anything that has to do with Christmas makes that "anything" worth the extra effort I have to put into it during the season. + +F +8090 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 my son got the new version and it was horrible. no cards to draw or money to earn, you just took turns and like all the stupid "everyone has to get a trophy" mentality, every person succeeds on the first try becasue the cavity is so large nothing could set off the buzzer. BUT THIS CLASSIC VERSION IS GREAT it has all the original pieces to remove (no stupid cell phone or toxic fart) and it truly requires patience, thought and dexterity - you know - what a game is supposed to do - challenge you - please don't get the newer versions. unless you have an IQ of 7, you;l hate that you spent any money on it - it's not even a game - but the classic is:) +3954 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The Slave I Expansion Pack is an expansion for the X-Wing Miniature Game, which happens to include great model of Boba Fett's Slave I. The sculpt of this miniature is amazing, and the paint job is just spot on to the Slave I in the Empire Strikes Back. Those fans of the infamous bounty hunter are going to have a treat with this one. +All in all, it's a lot of fun. He loves it and that makes me happy with it. +234 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Be careful ordering this. My disk 5 was corrupted and scan disk couldn't fix it! Had to get Wizards to send another, which they did right away. +This game has three strong qualities which recommend it to small children. The first is simplicity, so that the child can easily understand it and start playing immediately. The second is luck, so that the child has a fair chance against older siblings, babysitters, parents, grandparents and the family cat. The third is repetition, so that the child can grasp the basic structure of such games and be prepared for those board games that are rites of passage down the road as they mature. As an added bonus, "Chutes & Ladders" certainly helps young children learn their numbers. +I own a number of the variants and they are all similarly great and each has it's own quirkiness making it easy to enjoy them all. (I keep a copy in my car, a copy in my house, and a copy in my "games night" bag) +980 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Ticket to Ride takes exploring the country and world by rail to a new level. Learn the countries and cities of the locale, while you try to complete your routes. Each game is different, thanks to the wide variety of routes and the random draw of the cards. The high-quality components make playing time after time a pleasure. And they even include spare trains in case a few get carried away during clean-up. +4538 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This was given as a gift to a co-worker who adores squirrels. Needless to say, he loved it! +4256 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The wacky style of Fluxx works perfectly with the Monty Python theme. This is a great game with the family, but not as much with friends who are less aware of Monty Python. +We did add one rule when playing with my young kids...If you want someone to help you after someone goes out, you can ask and if that person helps you, he gets 5 points. I also limit my vocabulary to words my kids do or should know when playing with them. + +1069 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 fun +1320 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 It needs changes in four of its rules, and reminds me of Risk, where I could potentially lose friends. The game takes about 1 hour to play. The only good thing I can say is the artwork is beautiful. The cover belongs in a frame and should be hung on a wall. I was accused of being vindictive for blocking two other players deliberately, which is not against the rules. When I suggested modifying some rules, which would make that type of strategy a waste, those two players said no. I went to bed angry that night for being labeled the villain. I was still angry the next morning, and I was angry all day at work over the game! I haven't played it with them since. Two rules I consider most needing to be fixed are: 1. There should be no penalty for incomplete destinations. 2. Allow the use of double paths for THREE or more players. When a player's destination becomes DELIBERATELY blocked, I see the same kind of irritation you get when a player is attacked in the game of RISK, and that attack takes a continent away from them. Also, the small cars are too easily knocked around on the board. Since I stopped playing this game, I bought Seven Wonders, which is WAY more interesting, and has no possible avenues for irritation. I did make one mistake in my review. This game deserves ZERO stars instead of 1!! I gave this game away, and couldn't get it out of my house fast enough! +3569 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My daughter loves owls. Her room is full of them, her clothes are covered in them, and her favorite books feature them. These stickers are owls, so she loves them. I was not surprised based on prior reviews to see how small they are, but they'll work well on a bookmark or to personalize something she owns. Would recommend. +7418 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Kids love it. I enjoy playing along with them. +2369 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 It's a little complicated to learn, but a good once through and a trial game later, you're going to want to come back to it and explore new strategies. +It's easy to understand the rules, so you can get in the game quickly even if it's the first time you're playing it. The game can be as short or as long as you want and the kids (and some adults too) learn a lot of new words from it. Very enjoyable and highly recommended from ages 8 and up. +7026 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son is 4 and loves this + + +337 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love it +7091 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great toy! I don't like to spend this much money on a toy, but, the kids have been asking for a cash register for a long time. I am impressed that this toy is still working like it is supposed to, even after it has been thrown, dropped, fought over, spilled on.... This is definitely a boy-proof toy (well at least for the first month). I appreciate that it came with pretend money but that was scattered quickly. +2719 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Cute as can be, goes with the book great! +9837 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 I should have read the description closer as this does not have UV protection. Pretty useless for the pool or outdoors. Will just let my toddler play with it as a play house + +7057 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Two years and still works great! My 6 and 3 year old love playing with this cash register. It has enough "realistic" features without over-doing it. +7527 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 The colors are not the same. The blue looks black so it looks sort of dull. Was expecting it to be more colorful. Seems like it is constructed heavy duty and will last. +Harbour is a light game of dock working in a fantasy realm. It's not a long game and can be played in about 30 minutes. It's a great filler game but the depth of gameplay makes it so much more than just that. The artwork is great and pretty humorous. I love the look and feel of every aspect of the game from the theme to the design. The box is a bit small and barely fits all the pieces but who cares really. At least you're not paying for tons of air space and very little game. The game isn't difficult and can easily be taught to pretty much anyone. The extra bonus cards and expansion add quite a bit of strategy to the game that even the most hardcore gamers will enjoy. Fans of games like Smash Up, Village and Epic Resort will most likely enjoy this one as well. It's a great game that I highly recommend. Don't miss the boat on this one. + + +4878 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Hours of fun! My kids (ok, me and the hubby too) enjoy doing these extreme dot to dots. Lots of pages. Got as an Easter gift for their baskets. + +4142 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I cannot compare to original release, but this is a really nice set. Game is made from good materials. Game is rather complex in a good way, but you may have a challenge finding opponents that are willing to play or at same skill level. I recommend it, but be sure you have people to play with and would recommend you are also a fan of series as the game may be easier to learn. +7699 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Wonderful game! Fun for all ages. Be prepared for loudness and assertion! We had so much playing we accidentally ripped a card in half! The bell is the best! +7787 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Had a similar model to this cash register years ago for my older son. He beat it up pretty bad but it was duable and stood the test of a rough toddler. My sons preschool also had the same one. Flash forward 7 years later and I have a 4 year old that I bought this one for. He loves it so far and I know that it will be one of the more fun and durable toys he has for years to come. + + + +8044 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I grew up with this game many, many years ago. We got it for our grandniece - she loves it. A time honored game that will forever go on. +5715 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fluxx is an ever-changing game, competitive without being (forgive the pun) cutthroat. It's a fantastic ice-breaker game for when friends or relatives come over, since it gets people talking, laughing and even a little trash-talking! Rules and goals change with a flip of the card, and even the most inexperienced player can win. +UPGRADE CARDS +6697 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great for family game time at our house! + Ok, so the first time this happens, theres usually another way around, its probably the long way around, but hopefully you have enough trains to make it, because thats a constraint you have to work under. +6947 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Both my kids really like this cash register. The only draw back is the drawer opens really fast and a lot of the change flies out and on to the floor. Other than that, it's cute, and fun! +8916 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We love these gears! They make a great expansion to our original set. +8391 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We had an older version of this game from when I was younger but we've lost some pieces over the years. We re-ordered it for the kids and it's pretty much the same. The board itself has been "updated" with some newer graphics than the original release and the mice look pretty dumb, but the game-play is still the same and so is the trap itself, with the exception of using two heavy marbles now instead of one heavy marble and one larger, plastic ball. I have to say I much prefer the larger ball to sit on top of the 'helping hands' because half the time the first marble doesn't jar the hand enough to send the second marble rolling. And sometimes, even when it does roll off it's platform, it doesn't actually fall through the hole in the bathtub and you have to give it a push. The kids don't care, but I don't remember that being a problem in the original set. +1314 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great Family game!! Whole family loves it!! Got it for Christmas & played it everyday for 3 wks!! Then at least every week since!! Whole Heartedly Recommend!! You will be glad you did!! +8629 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This fun family game boasts a lot of eductional value. + +9551 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 I bought a few of these games from this company due to all the hyped up reviews. Very cheaply made, not that great. There are a lot better games out there. +Fun: A+ + + +2678 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Cheaper than the box store and better quality. My wife LOVED these. She has been stampping everything. The only thing I wish it had was care instructions. +3944 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Favorite ship in the game. I really enjoy flying Guri / Virago / Predator / Autothrusters / Sensor Jammer. Points-sink, but opponents find her frustrating to shoot at so they pick other targets, and come to regret it. +"Trouble" is definitely habit-forming, and this is only magnified when you get four people to play. I've been around people who get so competitive (myself included sometimes) that they will literally pound that little plastic bubble that determines how many spaces you get to move. And it doesn't matter how many times you warn them, pounding the plastic bubble is not good for the game (especially when it is your bubble they are pounding!). +(2) Guri, a level 5 unique pilot that costs 30 points whose special ability reads, At the start of the Combat phase, if you are at Range 1 of an enemy ship, you may assign 1 focus token to your ship. +You line up the cards in front of you face down. + +2127 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This expansion, amidst all the other Last Night on Earth expansions, is a bit of a gamechanger. The contents of the box may pale in comparison with the contents of Growing Hunger, but don't be fooled. This expansion introduces new cards for both heroes and zombies as well as several new sets of rules (including barricades and sewers). On top of that, it does include new scenarios, which is always a plus. +6540 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love this game, and it came right on time + +8768 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I like it better than my grandkids, wish they used it more. +and they love it...so much fun and helps learn the use of money and change!! +Our family had quite a bit of fun with this game, and I think it's a game that will be used frequently. + +8077 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Alassic. +962 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I've only played this with 2 players so far, but I imagine it would be even better in a group. One of my favorite times to play this game is with my boyfriend after work, when we're both a little mentally dead and we throw some Friday Night Lights on Netflix and pull out Ticket to Ride. It's a nice way to be able to interact with each other, but it's not too mentally consuming -- we can watch TV and maybe space out some, but turn play is short so we aren't bored. +2388 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Sweet little childs voice with an Australian accent and quiet/minimal musical instrument sounds. Purchased and adored by my one year old, but my four year old also enjoys searching for the subtle silver push buttons. Perfection. Thank you. Definitely will to buy more of this brand. +This game is great because you can play it on a squishy surface (hospital bed) with no problem. +1479 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Ticket to Ride is well made, fun for our whole family, and I like that my son is picking up a bit of geography as we play. +9118 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My grandson enjoys these. He loves music. Received on time and in excellent condition. +5792 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 So challenging and fun! Goes well with our Social Studies curriculum and keeps the fast finishers busy. +Get some sticks and rock out with the little ones. + +9249 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Don't get me wrong. I love this toy. My two autistic sons and "normal" daughter love these gears. But a change is necessary. As a reviewer, you may not think much of this needed change. But the company has not realized that the "on"/"off" switch is not that. It is one way or the other on either side, and then in the middle is the "off" mode. (On the left of the toy, there is a switch for fast or slow".) I would have to guess that 75 percent of the purchase of this toy is from people with autistic children or therapists for such. That being said, the "on"/"off" switch should be just that, a choice between "off" and "on". My two (autistic) sons are never able to figure this switch out. And they are far away from each other on the spectrum as far as the disorder is concerned. Other than that, batteries last long and the toy gets much use. Thanks for hearing me out. +It is somewhat replayable +6959 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 the kids love it +6234 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Terible worked for 30 mins + + +8200 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My boys love this game. It is our standard birthday gift to other kiddos. It is very interactive. +OVERALL +1638 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great for the money. +6147 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this for my god son and it's sturdy and great for play. He loves it. + + +1901 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 DO NOT BUY!!! Read the story of the elf carefully. Notice that on Christmas Eve the elf has to leave the house and go back to the North Pole to return next year. Many kids will find the elf amusing and will get attached to him and will cry and miss the elf on Christmas morning! Poof, your Christmas will become a tragedy and not a happy event. Your child will cry because they will miss their funny elf friend. DONT START THIS TRADITION!!! Don't say I didn't warn you! +Addendum: I failed to mention that the shirt does close with velcro, and when opened does reveal a belly button on the puppet. I discovered that on my own as it was never mentioned when I placed my order to get it. Now my grandson likes to open the shirt revealing the belly button. ;) +This set is pretty neat because there is quite a bit of information included with it. There is an easy to follow book filled with facts and information about each organ, as well as an organizer to help you keep track of parts when you're taking the body apart and putting it back together. The set also includes a set if tweezers and a set of forceps that you can use to move the body parts around. The "insides" are sticky and squishy so I would suggest keeping them covered when not in use as to avoid hair or other contaminants getting on them. +6834 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got this game to play over Skype with my 10 year old. I am deployed to Alaska and Skype is pixalated, the peices are large enough that we can both see the other persons game. (We have two copies only for skype, only one is required). It is callenging and gives us something to talk about when everything else was said yesterday. +702 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Good quality, easy for kids to use +Club Fantasci on Facebook:[...] +483 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our family loves card and board games, and are always on the lookout for more offbeat games to add to our collection. I can't remember how we acquired Quiddler, a word game, but given that we enjoy other word games such as Scrabble, Boggle, and UpWords, we figured Quiddler would be right up our alley. Our first time playing it didn't go so well -- probably because we had a couple of younger kids trying to play -- but a second go-round with just adults turned out to be very fun and enjoyable. +2195 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Say Anything is an instant hit for us. I chose the Family edition because the kids love playing games when they visit and we like to have games where all ages can be included. This fit the bill. The rules of the game are simple enough to understand, scoring just require that you can count to three, and the question cards are set up so that each round is guaranteed to spawn discussion and hilarity. We played the first round with four players aged 10 to 72, and it was the most fun we've had with such a large age span. +The fact is that random chance doesn't make a very interesting game for adults (unless you're making bets, I suppose), and it doesn't make a very interesting game for children either if they're used to games with more strategy involved. (My young nieces, for example, *will* ask a lot for Candyland - but only because I am not willing to play it with them very often.) +6790 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My doctor recommended this game as a rehabilitative tool after I suffered a brain injury. It is a really fun game, and now everyone in the family, including my 4 year old grandson, gets in on the action when this comes out. +9826 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 love his! must buy caterpillars/butterflies separately. +731 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game for the family! Make sure to get it when on sale! +2055 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have enjoyed the adventures of our elf "jasper"however my grandson was not very happy at all about an elf watching his every move. Introducing him even with the storybook was a little upsetting to my grandson who can be a little naughty sometimes. But the search for Jasper each morning has made the nowt elf fun. Not sure how it will all end tomorrow. Night when Jasper goes back to the north Pole but reading the book may help. +3314 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Takes a while to play, but was really fun. +*Research Buy cards to add to your hand that help in role phase for either of two roles + +2982 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This little bag is so convenient. I have a quick bag to grab when baby wearing. I can fit 4 diapers, a thin changing pad, wipes, a onesie and socks. It is cute too! +Enjoy!!! +This board is constructed of plastic as well as the pegs. + +5789 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I got this as a gift to give my sister and she thought it was a lot of fun doing it and she is in her 50's.. +960 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Pleased. +9665 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Nice 2 pack of ascending tracks. We use Sureclip tracks to connect them, or use them with Brio / Thomas bridges. Highly recommend the Brio "Stacking Supports" which you can use to make extra tall sections with several ascending tracks. +We had some issues with flooding in our basement last spring and the restoration company still has all of our Christmas items. I had to purchase new elves & reindeer (which is heartbreaking since I couldn't recall the exact date our first elf arrived to us over 4 years ago!) So the elves brought along the St. Bernard's to help them spread Christmas cheer (the elves wrote a letter to the kids explaining it all). They didn't realize at first that the boxes with the pups were new items (each year, out elves arrive with the books in the box and have the plastic popped open since they "fly" out of the packaging). When I came into the room to read the letter, I asked the kids why the box was taped closed and that's when the excitement really began! +4065 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 You can never have enough x-Wings +544 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 7 year old grandson plays this game in school and requested it for Christmas. It is currently one of his favorite games. +4929 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great quality game. The pieces are painted wood and come with a bag inside. We ditched the box and just keep them in the bag. The instructions aren't too hard to figure out. We have loved playing this on the patio as a family. Fun for the whole family. + +3906 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great beer & pretzels kinda game which is tons of screwage to other players and great competition to win the game. So many spells and items to use and the game has great strategy too. Not too long, around an hour or so. Have fun! +6781 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I love love love this game. My daughter is only 5, so she's a bit young for real strategizing, but I swear I can see her brain developing every time we play. And it's fun, too! +8179 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Game was broken and had many missing pieces. Disappointed with this purchase! +9774 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 These eggs are just poor quality. I bought them for my 20-month-old son for Christmas, but I can only get about half of them opened. The colors are not very vibrant, and the plastic container (the reason I chose this version of this product) is just very cheaply made. Overall, I am disappointed with this purchase, but the seller was very gracious to refund my purchase price, no questions asked! +I've not played the 1 campaign or 2 skirmish missions yet, but after reviewing them I think it is safe to say that they seem to be of similar quality to the ones we got in the base set. SMALL SPOILER ALERT: It is not too surprising that if the rebel figures win this campaign mission they get the Rebel Saboteurs as allies in future games. +In all seriousness, it can be a riotous good time, and rewards strategic thinking. Just like all good games. +3105 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We didn't even know they had a unicorn for Barbie. Thank goodness, because this was what our daughter asked for from Santa. +969 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great family game + +5983 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 If you love the show and movie, then this is an awesome way to extend the experience! My husband and I have played it with people both familar with the show and others who are not and a fun time was had by all! +5620 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We LOVE Fluxx and all of its variations. This one was purchased for an H. P. Lovecraft fan, and they are sure to love it. +We purchased this at full price. We were not required to write a review but chose to do so. Thanks, Liz + Because there could easily be much overlap in the first and third route, but not the second route, Id dump the second route and keep the other two. +6175 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Works like a charm. Never had any problems with Syma helos. +4568 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I really liked this alot.......Used it immeditely,as soon as it arrived,to write Haiku's. I only wish these sets came in a tin container...better to tote in your purse. Really loved the word variety. Awesome little item. +Now, in its defense, the game does pretty well. The bits are very nice, the rules are mostly clear, and the DM-less play works okay. It's not perfect. Occasionally you may run into situations you have to house-rule. I'm okay with that, but YMMV. +Again, I can't recommend this enough to those that have the original board game. +463 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This has been a really fun family game! We all enjoy word games. This is light enough you can keep the TV on in the background, and chat when not playing, but requires thought and planning - and then some luck! It doesn't take too long either - you can do a quick round and move on to other things if you like. +3423 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gotta love everything Klutz. They do such a good job with their products. My family already owns this book and this one is for my 14 yr old niece's birthday because she always wants to borrow ours. She will be so excited to have her own. +It seems a bit complicated at first, but mainly you have bikers and prospects in your 'clubhouse.' The dudes(bikers) give you a +10 life advantage, in general they are worth more, and you want to upgrade your prospects to member dudes. Everyone knows how many you have. Assets are kept hidden, and consist of guns, cash, and contraband. During rounds, bikers are strategically placed at places of operation. The board is a series of cards with places of operation that you exploit. Where it gets interesting is if another gang is on a location that someone else wants to exploit, then you might have to start a fight. The object of the game is to win with the most cash. +6036 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I got this for my friend for Christmas. It was more of a joke gift but it turned out to actually be a lot of fun. More often than not, board games that are based off of franchises turn out only sub par, but this one was good! People who have not watched the show probably would not enjoy it as much but It actually has solid game mechanics. +8558 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 Got this based on the reviews and how much we enjoyed Sleeping Queens (for a game the whole family can play). We didn't enjoy this one nearly as much. It isn't a bad game, but when placed next to other games in our game closet this one wouldn't get chosen. +It is a much faster paced game, which is great because you don't have to wait for your slow opponents to make a move. You actually are punished if you go too slow, because the goal is to be the quickest. + + +7874 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 The reason for giving one star is because the manufacture is misleading the customer's with wrong description. As per the description, "The Big Blocks ABC Alphabet Blocks are painted with letters, numbers and objects". Well that's not true. In the box it's ONLY colored ABC alphabets. There are no numbers and objects. MISLEADING. +9163 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Son really enjoys playing with this magnetic board. Wants his gear board daily. +3510 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 we got this for our 10 year old son who is totally into role-playing games. This particular version came highly recommended by a euro-gamer enthusiast we are friends with. We have played several times with him and it's great!! Only thing: I wish the laminated board was a bit less... curly. maybe a "real" euro board laminated but rigid so it would stay flat? +Color stay on children skin well and easily to wash away. +Pros: + +2463 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Excellent +6780 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I loved this game as a kid, and now my grand-niece loves it as well. This is good for building thinking and problem-solving skills. +And Secret Cultist Card (Its a surprise... shhhh) + Yup. But for comments to the theme itself, I think the original game is pretty strong. Struggling to eek out routes to complete destinations- trying to get there before someone cuts you off can be very nerve racking, especially when two or more destination cards are riding on making that connection. Ive got lots of little trains! Cool little plastic trains! +HWK-290 +*Datapike (3.5) The poor corps version to Tollbooth + +Bottom line for me, is this is GREAT - entertaining and educational for a wide variety of ages! I am impressed! +To begin, the market board is placed in the center of the play area. Each player will receive 2 player boards and pawn in their chosen color. They will choose one of the characters to keep and discard the other. The player board is placed in front of the player with the character side up. Players will also receive a set of goods markers which are placed on their player board on the 1 crate square to indicate that they have 1 of each good. The goods markers are also randomly placed on the market card. The building cards are all shuffled together. You will then draw a number of cards equal to the number of players and place them face up on the table along with the Lighthouse, Canal Lock and Shipbuilder's Guild cards. These will be the first building available to purchase. The remaining cards are placed face down on the table. Play now begins. +7459 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 I would give it less if it was possible. Bought this for my son for Christmas and the "solar power" is a joke! It doesn't work! If you hold it in the window sill tipped to the sun it will work but otherwise it's useless! My son likes the drawer and pretending to be a grocery store so he won't let me return it but I'm really unhappy the adding function doesn't work. Basically it's just a place to put the pretend money. Thank goodness the drawer at least opens and closes or it would be in the trash. VERY DISAPPOINTED. +3849 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love the games and the E-wings are decent ships. +589 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What a great idea! I love Scrabble, but even in the magnetic portable versions, it's not quite as portable as I'd like. Cards are much easier to carry and there's less likelihood of losing a card from a deck than a letter from Scrabble. +9493 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The grands love this. Works well +The variable market mechanic is very clever and it works great. +9875 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Best game ever, love this version. My old sequence game has the regular cardboard game top and it's getting worn out. I wish the company would sell the cards separately as mine are getting so worn +6436 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A old school game that provided family fun. +5841 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased this for my 11 year old , and he really likes these books. These books are almost imposable to buy on the stores. +107 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I really like this game, it helps kids recognize anger and talk about difficult emotions. + Bin needs a latch to keep it closed. I tape it down when bringing it anywhere. +1) The included 'Office' expansion (12 cards I think?) should not be optional or labeled as an 'expansion'. It feels like it should be part of the core game and more like a marketing gimmick that the "Office expansion is included". If they never pointed it out to you, there's no reason to think these cards are in-fact an expansion. I played with them all right from the beginning. The inclusion of the 'Office' cards may even have a few people argue it make the game a tad faster and easier (but maybe only for the solo player variant). +935 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Our family loves this game! We try to play board games as a family at least once a week, and this game is often one of our top choices. The objective is to connect as many rails as you can. As the makers recommend, our youngest player is eight, but we began playing it when he was seven. We've also played with adults who enjoy it just as much as younger players. Average game time is around an hour, so it's a great way to unplug from the TV, computer, tablet, etc. and simply spend time together. We look forward to getting some of the other editions! +6613 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I am a mom of a 3 year old and I grew up playing this game and I want to teach him how to play this fun game. It arrived before delivery date so I was excited to get it early! +I like that winning is surviving, that multiple people can survive, and that time travel isn't easy to destroy. The items, their abilities and the time travel mechanics are just what a die hard fan would want. +5016 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is AWESOME . At first i thought it was just a kiddie game but I quickly realized it was a lot of fun and quite challenging! I would describe this game as a mix of Scrabble and Dominos. Fun for the whole family (can get pretty competitive, too!) + +5031 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This game is a lot more complicated to figure out than I thought it would be. It did not hold my kids attention and they usually like to play games...even educational ones. +The map board is beautiful, but It could be about any fictitious land ever written about. +we both enjoyed it. +7284 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love playing with my friends. I think they love playing too. +4433 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Fun game especially for anyone that enjoys scrabble and other word games. It has been the most fun playing with groups all approximately the same age so that vocabulary and reflexes are similar. I appreciate the cute banana shaped case to hold all the pieces as it does not take up much space, is sturdy, and prevents the loss of pieces. + +1860 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love this +73 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Bought as a gift & the 11 year old loved it! +6118 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought it to train myself, now it's a fight with the wife, and kids to fly. Great learning tool, and way cheaper to start over than to fix real heli. Does NOT work right out of the box on new computers. Not super computer savvy, so I dug out my old computer with windows XP and it worked great. Box says compatible with windows 7 but there's a lot of extra steps so I just put it on the other computer in around 2 mins was up and flying. You can do an internet search for the steps, it just wasn't that serious to me. +6095 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 got three of these one broken ! one not ordered by that name and others do not work all the software was not working sent all of them back!! only ordered one of these got three?????? +514 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 got this for my family as a gift and they seem to be enjoying it, I have not played it myself. +3427 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I just wanted paints, but I ended up buying this based on its reviews...glad I did. Lovely paints, and plenty of them. The book,has some interesting ideas, also. I recommend a baby wipe for paint removal! +Pros: + +8376 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Simply the most fun game around for 2-17 year olds. My son and all of his cousins ask to play this game every time they are over at our house. The little ones need help but they love watching the board come together and especially cranking the wheel to trap the mice. Anything that makes preteens and teenagers put down their phones for over a half an hour is wonderful! This game gets everyone involved and laughing together which is my favorite. + +5279 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Since I ordered this game a year ago - without knowing anything about it - it's become the number one favorite board game of all my friends. Most of my friends now own this game, and my monthly game group plays it almost exclusively. I even play it over my lunch hour at work several times a week with some other Qwirkle fanatics. One thing I like about the game is that two people can enjoy it as much as 4 or 5. This is one of many very creative games offered by Mindware....check out their website. +6589 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 bought it for my five year old and he loves it. at first i thought i would just introduce him to the game on a PC, but glad that I bought this non-electronic version. totally worth it. +- Memory has 27 pairs of illustrations of easily recognizable things (keys, dogs, leaf). The illustrations are a little rough. +5138 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game for the whole family. We love playing this. I've purchased it for other children in my family as well as friends and its a huge hit. + +9568 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great purchase for my 8 year old entering 3rd grade. He was so excited that it was a game board for learning his multiplication table. I had this as a child so I was excited they still sell it over 25 years later. + +7664 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game for a young child! +5416 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My family and I often meet at family gatherings and play games. While we tend to try lots of new games, only a few of them have earned a place on our 'permanent game shelf'. Qwirkle quickly became one of our favorite games because it is easy to learn, easy to play....yet challenging because every game is different. My husband and I purchased multiple copies of this game to be given to several family units at our upcoming family reunion. I'm sure we will have a fun and boisterous "Qwirkle Tournament" involving all ages (4-99)!!! Even our youngest grandchildren (ages 4-9) quickly mastered basic moves and picked up 'higher strategy' thinking.....it's hard to find a game that is easy enough for the youngsters, yet appeals to adults, too!! +4249 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Fun, but confusing, card game. +2329 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is such an awesome idea to get your kids to behave and help at Christmas time. And such a good deal from Amazon. Our kids loved the book and we even found a movie as well. And so may cute ideas on pinterest on how to set the Elf up each morning for your kids to find him. +9295 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This has been great fun for my 5 yo daughter and has even held up great to my very rough 2 1/2 yo boy...not something I can say about several other wooden doll house products I've purchased. I've gotten several more from Plan Toy because it works wonderfully for her Fisher Price Loving Family dolls/dollhouse. +1966 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 amazing that this sells for $30. the elf is the cheapest toy I've ever bought- it's not positionable, and the arms don't open. good marketing!! +1904 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 kids love Elf on the shelf!!! this is a must for all familes!! +5227 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love this game. It is a great family game for ages 8 to adult.. It's challenging but easy to learn. My 9 and 12 year old grandchildren can beat me regularly. +This terribly manufactured toy takes an hour to build and 30 seconds to destroy. If you are considering buying this for your little ones, know that they will need a sharp utility knife (not supplied), scissors (not supplied), tape (not supplied), a ruler (not supplied), baking soda (not supplied), vinegar (not supplied), and plenty of patients. +I particularly like that this game will grow with my children. There are riddle cards that you can use in one type of game. And directions for other games as well. +4884 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 10 year old doesn't stop until all the dots are connected, he loves finding these under the Christmas tree. + + +There were also some quirks in the game. Once we tried to select the Reindeer Games item on the screen and it just wouldn't work! Another time, the game got stuck and we couldn't do anything and had to start over. We've had the problems on two different DVD players. +*You can shorten the games length by removing some/half of the tiles from the game at random during setup. +Like WFRP3, Edge of the Empire uses special custom dice. I love custom dice, so I love this. I just hope Fantasy Flight Games does a better job of keeping the Star Wars dice in print than they did the Warhammer dice (seriously Fantasy Flight, WTH??). They do have dice rolling apps for iOS and Android out for both Warhammer and Star Wars, and I really like them. In fact, as a GM, I'll say that if you're GMing you should only use the dice rolling app. It allows you to put together dice pools for your NPCs, bad guys, and monsters faster, and it instantly gives you the tallies for successes, failures, advantages, setbacks, etc. But as a player I prefer the tactile experience of rolling actual dice, which is very satisfying with these systems -- provided Fantasy Flight makes enough dice and keeps them in stock. + +7674 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this item for my niece's birthday and she loves it! She's seven and I think just the right age to start with this item. It is such a great and fun way to learn about money. How to give change, how to manage money,etc. We play "store" and put prices on the items right in the room we are in. It's fun!!!!It's Also good for a few years. Well made and very durable. It takes credit cards,Too!!!! +this is a good sized figure and i actually think it is worth $20, but i wouldn't pay much more than that +Gear 5 (purple): 11-20 + +5341 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Need a gift for a family that loves game nights. They say all of the kids get to play even the 5 year old and it doesnt bore the parents. +8543 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I don't know why my daughter likes this thing but she does, and plays with it often. +My two year old loved his Sprite. +5426 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I'm sure you're familiar with "Scene It?" since there are a dozen variations of the game out, and "Comedy Movies Deluxe" is the latest to join the team. Gameplay for this one isn't that different from other versions of the game, so you can easily step into this one with almost no learning curve if you've played another version before. The thing that sets this one apart is the wonderful collection of movies you're playing with. This game borrows from movies from classics like "Caddyshack" to more modern hits like "The 40 Year Old Virgin", "Bowfinger" and others. The thing that makes this though is that it does carry a "Family" label, meaning though it may touch a few raunchy comedies, the clips you see are nothing you'll have to be embarrassed about. If you want to relive some hilarious moments from movies you might have missed and more you've definitely seen, this is a wonderful way to spend an evening with the family. +However, it is now three months later. The credit card slot no longer makes the sounds it used to make. I thought that maybe the button battery was low. It took me a half hour to change a button battery because the battery holder is so poorly designed. There is one long screw with a washer holding the battery in, and the battery just barely unscrews. If you can pry off the battery cover at all (I managed this by pulling on the screw with my finger nails), only one side will come off because there is a tab holding the other side in. Eventually, with much difficulty, I changed the battery only to find that the keys for the numbers 7, 8, and 9 on the cash register no longer worked when I turned the thing on again. Some wires may have come dislodged in my struggle to change the battery. +1856 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 Someone is laughing all the way to the bank and retiring early, and it's not me. +thank you +For a game that has been around since 1996, Rush Hour continues to provide edutainment to the young and young at heart. Hmm...I wonder if there has ever been a clinical study on the benefits of this game on the aging brain.... +8001 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Classic game good fun + +Overall, this is a very cute and ingenious game that you will enjoy playing for a few times before it gets repetitive. I am glad that the mousetrap works so well as it does - check out the video! +8068 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a great game! The plastic pieces are a little flimsy but the contraption functions perfectly to trap the mice in a multiplayer game. My grandchildren and I enjoyed playing this game. +And then, I already feel bad about lying about Santa. Now I'm lying about the Elf. Will this kid ever trust me when she finds out? Will she think that we lied about other things as well? +783 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I LOVE this game! It has to be my favorite board game! It involves strategy but its not just another strategy war game. :) + + +9499 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought for a co-worker to share with her neice +2493 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Been playing scrabble for years. Love this version and wish I had one like it as a kid or in my drinking days! +2535 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Cant tell you to much about the game as I gave it as a gift. They seemed like they were thrilled with it. It did come quickly and was well packaged there was no damaged to the box. I would buy from this dealer again as it was a good transaction +6256 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Good bang for the buck, bought as a christmas gift for my 13 yr old son. Good platform to build on or run as is. The radio quit after 4 runs but that didn't bother me because I already had another to add as an upgrade along with different tires, steering servo and speed control. I left the rest of it stock and it works as well as any high end crawlers costing double or more. + +The board is based on a number of tiles that resemble drink coasters, randomly drawn and placed to make the board, turned over to make them available locales as the game goes on. Being the only gang occupying a location means you get the benefits on the card, such as getting money, guns or contraband, or selling guns or contraband. While its possible to stay out of one anothers way, being aggressive is the only way you're going to get ahead in this game. While the throw-downs can be done without guns, having guns definitely skew winning the fight in your favor. It means youll bring down more heat on your gang possibly even needing one of your members to take the fall and be taken out of play to be sent to prison. Using guns can also send your rivals members to the emergency room and possibly the morgue, diminishing that clubs power. Turns are quick but still demand consideration as timing of the actions your gang undertakes is important. +6788 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I can't wait to play this game with my daughter of age 8. It is an Easter present. +The drawings and quotes on the cards do not interfere with using these cards for card games. The cards are practical. + +7810 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game +4083 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 You will like this game if you are a fan of Star Wars and/or Silent Death. Make sure to buy the starter set first (has 1 x X-Wing and 2 x TIEs). +2988 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 good + +Link to Print & Play tracks: +8037 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Classic, i had this as a child. I love playing it with my son! +So whether it's because Hasbro took a moral stand or just couldn't figure out how to change the title AND packaging without losing their market, I say BRAVO. Bring on the sugar. And by the way, am I the only one who is confused about Splenda? "It's not sugar but it's made from sugar". What the heck does THAT mean? Were they down in the lab watching Frankenstein while experimenting? "Hey, he's not human but he's made from humans. Hmmm....". +7191 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Can't go wrong with this classic. The quality is still top notch. +The good thing is it was not expensive or I would have sent it back. My grandson and I had 90 minutes of quality time that is currently sitting on the mantel covered with a Zip-Loc bag pending arrival of a more suitable cover. I would not recommend this item. I would have probably given 3 Stars except for the snap issues and the dust. +8715 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this for my nephew's birthday. It was a big hit! + +I give it 4 stars because some of the eggs are a bit too hard for her to pull apart and some that come apart with barely a touch. The round shape had to be glued back in. +My children enjoy this game, but they both get bored of it after a while. With the way the game runs on chance, it's all too easy for the game to take an excessively long number of turns. It can end up with an incredibly long game that no one really wants to sit around to finish. It's a good game (obviously because it's become a classic) but it's definitely not my number one choice on children's games. +6617 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 The game is a good exercise in logic for my 9-year-old granddaughter and we have fun playing it. The marker pegs are so tiny that even her small hands have difficulty picking them up so I may have to buy a better version. +Tom Vasel +8058 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 If you notice most 5 star reviews are dated pre 2006. It seems the board has been changed since then. I bought this for my son and was expecting the classic candy land game...I was very surprised to see the changes that have been made. This version is very busy...which causes it to lose a lot of it's charm (and give me a headache). This game is meant for toddlers...the board shouldn't be a chaotic mess. Not a good update in my opinion. If something isn't broke, don't try to "fix" it. + +3681 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 i have these on my frig and everytime i have people over and they bring friends, it becomes a whole conversation about the show. Guys!!!!!!.........the ladies love this show. its was a good ice breaker at a party.!!!!! +9917 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great game +2887 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This came today and my son instantly recognized it from the book. He is two so I'm a bit worried about the little bear attached, as in what if he rips it off in the middle of the night and chokes on it kind of fear. So for now, we will watch him, but otherwise seems great. +We liked that the gears' teeth are smaller than some of the other play gear sets, giving this one less of a "little kid toy" look. Our toddler, like most, is drawn to things that aren't toys first and foremost. The magnets are strong enough to keep the gears where they need to be, but even a small child can still easily nudge one across the metal surface to mesh the gears. + +5198 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun Game, kids enjoy it. Good quality pieces. +Easy to learn, but hard to master. +524 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 interesting game +3561 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My Grand Daughter loves anything Owl and she will love these stickers! I liked the price and its worth the money. +The Central Officer has another major responsibility in this game- managing an app on a tablet, cell phone, or laptop (which is downloadable for free from FFG). The game plays out in two phases- a timed phase and a resolution phase. During the timed phase, the app tells the Central Officer what action can be taken by which player, and gives them a strict time limit to accomplish their task. The tasks may be: research tech in a specific slot, an alien invades the HQ, interceptors must be deployed, UFOs appear over continents or in orbit, a new mission must selected, and more. The Central Officer must relay all of this information as quickly as possible to the other players, and make sure they are not taking too long. During the resolution phase, players then resolve all of the tasks that they set in motion in the timed phase. Players roll dice in order to get success for tech, knocking down UFOs, killing aliens in the base, and more. Players roll XCOM D6 dice, which features two success symbols on, as well as a numbered D8, which functions for the alien enemy. When you fail a dice roll, you can roll again, but it becomes increasingly likely that you will be defeated because with each non-success you move the threat marker up one space (from 1 to 5). If the D8 is equal to or lower than the threat marker, it is a fail and you lose the scientists, interceptors, soldiers, satellites, etc... If, at the end of the resolution phase, there are UFOs left over continents, that continent is moved forward on the panic track (if two nations make it to the orange section of the panic track- the players lose the game). If there are any aliens left over in the base, the base damage marker moves forward (if ever this marker reaches the end- the players lose the game- and there are also other negative consequences for it hitting red points). Players are working toward being able to complete the "Final Mission" and the app will tell you when you are able to do this (based on completing other missions and other criteria). Once the Final Mission is completed successfully, the players win the game. + +6900 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The object of this game is to drive the red car between the cars and off the road. The card you choose will tell you how to set up the game. The other cars need to be moved to let the red car out. My children, ages 9, 12, and 14 love this game. I even enjoy playing it. It is challenging and you really have to think to get the red car out. + +It is a little costly, but the base stats (3 attack, 3 defense, 2 hull and 3 shields) are pretty good. It can also do four different actions, and take many different kinds of upgrades. +7720 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This is a game of trade and shows what early markets might have been like. It is easy to play and play moves fast. It is a nice game for groups to play and because it is simple to play, adding the bear and bull do add some more challenge, it is easy to teach thus making it a good party game. +3803 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I loved the original Netrunner, and this version is actually a big improvement. A few of the rules are simplified or redone, and the artwork is much better. Plus its now a Living Card Game, which means its a lot less expensive than the old Trading Card Game. + +2504 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gift for my good friends. They loved it. Sat right down & played several games, +1911 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The Best +3677 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 These are glossy paper-printed cutout magnets (in case you were expecting something more substantial) but they are still attractive and look good on my fridge! If I saw them in person before buying, I wouldn't want to pay more than $5-7 for the set but at that price I would say they are worth it. The printing is high-resolution, glossy with nice colors. + +5754 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We use these all the time and my toddlers are bilingual and the flash cards help. +9783 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This tunnel folds up neatly and can be toted for the kids to play with in the park or anywhere you have a few square feet. Great classic toy. +9825 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is probably the coolest gift you can give a child. I ordered this on my amazon account for my mom to give our 5 year old daughter on her birthday. The process of watching this was magical. We were able to release all 10 butterflies on my daughter's birthday. We liked it so much, we have ordered a handful more!!! SERIOUSLY the best gift to give a child!!!! +4350 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 fun +1292 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Don't be deceived by the somewhat disturbing characters that are depicted on the game's box art. This is quite possibly the best board game you will ever play (other than Ticket To Ride Europe, which is even better, having benefited from all the years of playtesting that the original got in the hands of the public). It's quick to learn, fun to play (even with only two players), and has infinite replay value. You can add even more replay value by adding the 1910 expansion, and/or the Alvin and Dexter expansion down the road. +Because there's so much more to playing a game than just winning.... ;) +People who enjoy Carcassonne Basic Game and the The Settlers of Catan series will probably like this game as well. + +9096 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 High quality and really fun. Highly recommend. Good tone and durable too! + +What's in the box? In addition to the two plastic figures, you get 2 deployment cards; one red that costs 7 points and one gray card that costs 5 points (note that the gray one is the same as the one in the base game, but the red one is new). You also get 6 command cards and 2 skirmish mission cards for use with the skirmish game (all new), 1 side mission card for the campaign game (also new), and 4 ID tokens and 12 ID stickers in 4 different colors (i.e., #7 in purple, blue, red, black). It also includes the rules sheet with all the info that will let you use run the skirmish missions and/or campaign components. +6065 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 love this game +(See Comments section below for link.) +The beauty of vanilla Ticket to Ride is its simplicity and accessibility for players of all ages and experience levels. Players can take one of three actions on a turn - take train cards (to build routes in the future), take destination tickets (to acquire new points scoring objectives), or claim routes by using the appropriate set of train cards (to score points and progress against objectives). The winner is the player that accumulates the most points for building routes and linking specific cities from their destination objectives. This simplicity allows the game to move at a very fast clip because players have usually chosen their action by the time their turns come around. However, this simplicity does not obviate the need for strategic play. Players will need to effectively balance long-term and short-term objectives, while keeping an eye on their opponents to stay one step ahead. The best part of Ticket to Ride is that you'll find yourself feeling like a powerful, cunning railroad magnate as you complete routes and destination tickets. In the end, it won't matter whether you win or lose because you'll have had an absolute blast. + +i combined this box with drizzt because i enjoyed the monsters as well as the very cool treasure cards!! however the encounter cards in this box are crazy ridiculous! +1085 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great product, fast shipping! +I think it's a great idea and it really works with our kids. +Purchase more next year. + + + +6657 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son got this as a gift when he was 3 months old. He has always liked to look at it. But lately he likes to hold it, shake it, put in his mouth, pound it against other things, ect. He is definatly picky when it comes to toys (he will only reach for or play with certain ones) and he loves this one. + +2609 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 9 year old daughter has absolutely loved this book. She has spent hours re-creating the lettering. It's great for this age group, I don't think anyone younger would appreciate it because most of the lettering is quite intricate. Great book! +5450 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We love this game and everyone can play from 3 years up. (The box says 6 - Adult) If you're a movie lover this game will entertain you and your guests for at least 2 or 3 rounds each time you break it out. I'm not sure why other reviewers don't like magical moments compared to other Disney Scene It games, we have both and I would consider this an upgrade to the last one. +8888 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A beautiful Barbie for her 40th Tribute Year. She was released over 10 years ago but still has a current as well as nostalgic quality. +7070 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 It was a gift, but I know the little girl is happy +1514 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I was introduced to this game a few months ago at a family gathering. We are a family that likes to play a lot of games when we get together and this one was definitely the favorite. After playing it there - I went right home and had to buy it for myself. + +9669 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 5 year old loves this! It's a little pricy considering it's just 1 part for the track, but it's worth it. Perfect for the kid who has a wooden track and loves to use trains AND cars! My son loves to create a city "inside" his train set, and now he can use the crossing for cars to go over it! The red barriers move, and they will snap in and out of the joints, so it would be hard to really break it. +4327 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love it! +3062 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 daughter loved it! +2928 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is such a handy way to store your double pointed needles, and keep them from poking your work or stabbing you when stored in a bag. +My baby got it on his 1st birthday,last year, and now that he's almost 2 years, he's begun to appreciate it- oh such sweet sounds-he's getting the rhythm! + +9305 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a great drum and my 3 year old and 2 year old have such fun beating away on it. The sound is good - not too loud or soft and the drum sticks are solid and just right for small hands. +4628 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is fun for the whole family. It also teaches children new words and spelling. There is no board required and you are building off your own words. You are playing independantly and as a group. You can also play this game alone. Challenging and rewarding! Great Game! + +6177 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 you have wait till after xcmas +The drum sticks are nice though. +2786 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We adore Pete the Cat! This Pete the Cat soft doll is perfect for fans of the story books! His pajamas are so cute! Love the little red slippers and the whiskers!!! +3937 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 no problems +6724 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Great cash register! Well made & sturdy! The only con being that the drawer comes out with so much force that the coins sometimes come flying out! Even so...I'd still recommend it! + +9855 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I do daycare and my kiddos were in love with this project. Such a fun time to watch the changes, and then release the butterflies. +The three parts of the bank come apart, so your child can bring the "save" part with her to the bank or bring the "share" part with her to local orgnizations (we volunteer at a local animal shelter, so she brings the little "share" section of the bank with her to the shelter and puts the money into the donation box), etc. + + +2159 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We just got this and my 7.5 yr old absolutely loves the game. Requires us both to understand the rules of football but its fast paced and pretty fun. He loves to play and I'm happy to play with him. It is a very smartly designed dice game. +9320 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son squealed with delight when I took the drum out of the box. The sound is good. It holds up really well. The drum sticks it comes with have padded heads on them. It is a good size drum so I would recommend this for class room play as well. The pictures on the side are pretty cool too and my son likes pointing out the animals. All around a fabulous buy that I do not regret at all. +6886 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is very versatile in changing game play to be appropriate for different ages. I ordered this game as a gift for my 5 yr old son. He plays this game all the time at a friend's house. He loves it and gets it out of the game cabinet every chance he gets. The pieces are quite small, so I wouldn't have ordered it for anyone younger than him, but there is no reading required, so with adult supervision, any child can play. This game encourages logical and analytical thinking. With the smallest children, it is a study in recognizing their colors. With older players, you can really challenge each other. +(kindergarten) were telling him their elf was evil and destroys the house +3811 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is the hot game right now. This is the first game in a long time where I have gotten into a semi-competitive scene. If you want to play a CCG, but don't want to have to wastemoney collecting cards from random boosters, LCGs are the way to go. This is definitely the #1 LCG around, so play it while it's still popular. +SoA:MoM is not like those games. It's a modern board game but not too complicated. You have three resources: money, contraband, guns. The winner is the player who ends the game with the most money, and all three resources are hidden throughout the game, so you won't know who the winner is until the end. You have two kinds of meeples: members and prospects. There are different areas in the game, and each area lets you make certain kinds of trades among all your resources. If 2+ players are on the same area, no one can use that area's abilities until the other player is "eliminated", either by voluntarily leaving (you can bribe players) or starting a fight. Every turn you reveal "anarchy cards" which can add temporary new areas or temporary bonuses or restrictions. +762 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great gift granddaughter loves it + +9144 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 too high pitched. like a buzzing sound +This is a good game for family fun or for a party. Good for younger as well as older players. +The game is fairly well-balance. It's not uncommon to start in the number 8 seed and still end the game in 2nd place. The game is designed so that even if you are pretty far behind, it's not difficult to catch up (sometimes at the very end) which makes for a really exciting game. You also get to make a good amount of decisions and develop your own driving style. You can use a very "push-your-luck" driving style, play it safe, or anywhere in between. It's also pretty easy to pick up and play. +3704 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The figure is amazing. The detail in and quality of Dark Horse's GOT collection is incredible. I own the whole series and can't wait for the next one to be released! You will not be disappointed. +1424 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My family and a friend only just played it once so far and the game is lots of fun. It's great to have a game with no dice, not two long, and requires some strategic decisions/choices. My only issue was with the directions in which it was not initially obvious that you are supposed to discard your cards (into a future recycle stack) once you claim a train route, or maybe I was just having a brain glitch. Anyway, its a great game and my kids really want to play it again tonight (even though they lost to the friend the first time!) +8885 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun, but different than the classic set. +9227 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This drum is almost 2 feet across and has a deep bass sound. My kid and the insane parent that bought it for her love it.... me, not so much. BUT it makes them happy and they enjoy it, so in a way I like it too (just gotta keep telling myself that.) A sanity saving trick is to put something like a pillow UNDER the drum, so its tucked up inside of it. It muffles the sound and makes it not so migraine inducing. +The Captain's Hat, adds bragging rights to the game and a few play variations. +2522 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Ever bumped a Scrabble game in progress and then argued for an hour over where the tiles were originally? That won't happen with this innovative product. +4362 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Very good game and has some learning built into it as well, kids will never know. +9184 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great gift for a friend +4817 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Cool toy, cheep materials used foceps useless organs are squishy. Good for intro to human body but not very detailed. +3742 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 For the price you get a map, some tokens, an adventure (that works as an introduction to the mechanics) and the dice. + +5562 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Many of the cards in this game will remind you of sci-fi and fantasy movies and television shows you have been watching for years. It's fun having them combined into one crazy card game. Fluxx games are always crazy, but this version is one of the most fun for sci-fi fans. Enjoy! +As with all expansions, this one includes all tokens, dials, etc. that you need to use this ship in a game (though a copy of the base set is still needed to play). + +9167 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought as a Christmas present. Very pleased +9469 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought for four year old, used by older kids as well. This drum is very durable, it has taken quite a beating (no pun intended) and is in perfect shape still. It has an attractive look to it and a good sound as well. It's a quality instrument for children at a great price. Would definitely recommend if you are growing a collection of children's instruments for home or daycare, etc. + + + +4934 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What a fun board game! Bought it 2 years ago and it is a family favorite. We even play it on the beach! +- Mixing vinaigrette +- There are starting locations (Police station, Hospital, Gun and Drug factories) and various random locations. Each random location has things you can do like skim (take), sell or buy money/drugs/guns or reduce your heat. You can exploit locations (use the resource of the location) when there is no rival gangs at the location. +119 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is working great and it arrived on time. +To win the game you have to match your hand (called keepers which are face up on the table in front of you) with the current goal in play. For example, the goal might be to have the captain, doctor, expendable crewman, and one other crewman card. +they last about 10 mins per charge and take an hour to recharge....I ugraded the batteyr on one unit and found it was only slightly better like 12 mins maybe i would reccomend just sticking w the factory battery +We will have a hard time choosing between the front and the back for our project, as both sides are exquisite. All of the color work together, eve when you wouldn't expect it. Put in the right order, they help tell the story. We bought some of the matching accessories, and are really happy with how they go without being too matchy-matchy. +Had I realized the implications of having a calculator rather than $ notation to a 6 year-old, I would have chosen a different cash register that always displays 2 decimal points (4.50 instead of 4.5) and allows you to make change more easily. I believe there's another Learning Resources cash register that does this. +3343 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is awesome! This is one of my favorite co-op games. The rules are fairly easy to understand and teach, there is a good balance of luck and control, and it's just fun to play. + +6445 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 very low quality board +5273 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We bought this game on a recommendation from someone who's only played it with more than 2 players. It's a great game to play if you want a quick under 30 minute round. We play it quite often and we never get sick of it. Great game for all ages as well with the use of symbols and no words. +511 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I am always looking for a great family game, and while I have tried other Set Games in the past, I had heard great things about Quiddler. This is the Junior version of Quiddler and it intrigued me, as I was wondering whether my seven year old would be able to play this by herself or not. In playing this, the cards are wonderfully made with great imagery and graphics and many colors that truly drew my youngest daughter in from the beginning. I came to find that she did need some help at first as only being in first grade had some limitations in regards to the breadth of her vocabulary. As we played though she got better and better and after a few rounds she had the hang of it. By the end of the game she was asking to play it again. This game really challenges you to think and be creative with your words as well as encourages your kids to learn more and more words in the end. This is a great game that I would encourage for all families! +Quick game - doesn't take too much time per round. +1963 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Ordered this to start the Elf on the Shelf tradition in our home. Our son absolutely LOVED the Elf. I'd recommend this to anybody who wants to add a little bit of fun for Christmas time. +You just mix up the color and paint a beautiful pattern on face and hands and so on. +3. Multiple ways to win +But. It's more of an activity book than a journal proper. Most of the pages have things to do on them, which is cool, but it's not a diary, which was what my daughter expected. The pages are also glossy, so more than half the pens in the house won't write properly on them. +1673 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 wonderful +However, once you settle in and understand the mechanics, Dungeon Roll proves to be a lot of fun to play. You owe it to yourself to give this one a chance, because while the first impression might be a bit rough, it makes a better lasting one in my experience. The mechanics are simple but effective. One player is the adventurer. This person rolls the seven white dice and this forms their party. The party can be made up of specific classes (masks for thieves, swords for fighters, etc) and scrolls. Then the player to your left is for all intents and purposes your enemy for a time. +Still, Dungeon Roll is fast, well-themed, well made and despite the lack of interaction, it is still fun. For the price, its worth picking up if you play games like Zombie Dice or Cthulhu Dice, or just want a simple filler game with nice components. +Mostly we play with 2 players, and it works well... but you can play with up to 6 players. +I have used these for crafts, cards, and halloween (as an alternative to candy). +99 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This was a gift for my niece, because she loves dogs. There are a lot of great ideas. I am going to add a few more supplies so that she can continue to add more. +Point is - if you even THINK you're going to like this, definitely check it out. + +Some kid games are lots of fun for adults to play as well; that's not quite the case with this game. A few of the very repetitive phrases are irritating once you've played it for a while. +2010 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I ordered this for our grandchildren in Kentucky and when it arrived they were so excited and it seemed to make the point got across to them that they had to be good until Christmas. +6158 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This Syma Helicopter is great for beginners or people who aren't good at controlling helicopters because air comes out from the bottom and keeps it hovering it also flies very evenly. The air from the bottom also reduces falling damage to the helicopter. I do not recommend this helicopter on windy days outside because its very light and will be blown away easily. I also don't recommend this near animals because they will go crazy. I suggest this helicopter for people ages 8 and up. The best part about this is that it will almost never break like all those other air hogs helicopters. Over all I give this helicopter 5 out of 5. +8739 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I use this to demonstrate breathing with my choir students. The visual aid 1) gets them to visualize the expansion of their lungs and the volume of air intake and 2) entices them to participate because they feel like they are playing with a toy, not working on a skill. Wish I had had one of these years ago. +While I haven't played it yet--my Friday night gaming group has been on hiatus--I was extremely impressed with it when I unpacked it to prep it for the first game night we're back in session. This is so well put together it's insane. No cheapo materials used here either. The only bummer I'm seeing is that you've got to pay so much for the expansions. My gaming group is a solid 6 but occasionally we get as many as 9 players so the base game is on the small side and yet requires at least 3 to play. +7859 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It is a classic - and good for little ones. I just wish it would come with a card holder with place for cards on one side and discarded cards on the other. They slip and slide all over the place and there isn't a good central place to set them. +8278 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 I was expecting much more fun game. My daughters are almost 4 and they get bored after 10 minutes :( It's so slow going and boring. I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone. +2174 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 fun character +Treasure: When a chest is opened during the Monster Phase, the current player gets to retrieve treasure from the Dungeon. These can be used during a players turn if applicable like a fighter token or a mage token which acts as an additional companion die. Once the toke is used it is returned to the box. All unused treasure tokens count as experience points at the end for the player that has them. +6833 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a really interesting and classic game. We bought it for our 8-year-old son and it's fun for all of us to play. +Rich +3491 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very strong and sturdy, and super useful. Makes checking several books for charts almost unnecessary. I have used old D&D screens in the past and they are 1/5th as thick as this one. Its so strong it will support several books balancing on the edge while opened. Get it you will not be disappointed! +5444 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We got this for the family before our first trip to Disneyland (we've been to Disney World several times, but never Disneyland). It was a fun way to get into the spirit and see Disney hidden gems that we had missed before. Not being the biggest Disney movie fans out there, we didn't fare very well in the game, but we all had fun. This was also our first Scene-It game, but I think we'll get the Star Trek one now, since that's more up our alley. + +87 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My 9 year old got this as a gift and loved the adorable puppies we made together. I think it might be too difficult for her to do on her own at least at first. My only complaint is that is didn't include enough yarn or eyes, ears etc. to make each of the 8 or 9 dogs pictured. Of course, yarn, felt, and buttons can be purchased and more dogs can then be made, but she wasn't able to make her favorite dogs right away because there was only enough for 1 tan dog. (black and white are also included in small quantities). +2837 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We got our first Llama book for my sons first birthday. We didn't know about the series before that, but my whole family has fallen in love with it even since (even the grandparents!). When we found this plush toy we knew we had to have it. My son sleeps with it every night and always points to it when we start reading him one of the books. I was afraid that the Fuzzy doll llama would get ripped off because it seems to be held on by a thread, but it has held up well and we've had it since January '15. This is the perfect gift for any little Llama fan. +6779 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Arrived on time. My kids love this game and are giving it to a friend for Christmas. +745 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love. This. Game!! +"Big Mac" +3271 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very satisfied with this purchase. +DURABILTY: +750 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My only complaint is the train pieces, they are plastic and the same car in different colors. I wish they were wood and a variety of different train cars. And it would be nice if they stayed on the board better. One little bump and they scatter. It would be neat if they fit into groves like the old school scrabble boards. Or maybe magnetic. +If you're a movie lover "Scene It" is really fun. If you're family likes Disney or animated movies this a "Disney Magical Moments Scene It" is GREAT. As a family we like this game better than the other two we have played. + + + + +2505 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Good value + +the only thing that we lost one of the connection same day (probably after rolling git on the carpet), but then we found it and clip it back pretty easy. not sure how long it would servive +Boba Fett is an amazing figure with both strong offense and defense. Offensively, he rolls 1 blue + 1 green + 1 yellow dice when attacking. He can also spend surges to weaken or pierce 1. He can also gain +2 accuracy or spend a surges to gain +2 Damage via his battle discipline special ability. Defensively, he has 12 health, rolls a black dice, but he gets an auto +1 block and a +1 surge evade. And, another option for his battle discipline special ability is to spend a surge to recover 2 damage. And if all that were not enough, he has both mobile and speed 6, making him the most maneuverable character in the game to date. +3756 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Hands down I have to say that this is my favorite game of all time. Period. Seems like a huge statement to make huh? Well I don't say that lightly. I consider myself a pretty serious and dedicated board gamer. I love all types of games and play them regularly. But Netrunner takes the cake for me. +Reinforcing this tradition is a coloring book from The Elf on the Shelf's animated special, An Elf's Story. It's filled with fun activities and even some Elf on the Shelf stickers that children will love. + + +We won the first scenario, but lost the second one (ran out of Surge markers). We'll be painting up the miniatures over the next few weeks, and definitely going into our Family Game Night rotation, with Talisman, Ticket to Ride, Risk, Monopoly, and Fluxx. +I still stand by my opinion that scrabble is dumb. Dumb because I stink:) Bananagrams = FUN +Here's another one to ponder... +5027 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 favorite game + +3452 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A night time favorite. + +8796 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Half the reviews for this product are 5 star, half are 1 star. I decided to take the chance. I wanted something that would help me relearn my math facts and that would grow with my daughter as she begins to learn them. This sounded like the best one on the market and sadly, I still think that. So what's wrong with it? +9344 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great drum really nice and looks very durable. Includes 2 drumsticks. I think it will hold up well to my toddler. + +9610 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son can't live without his railroad crossing. This has brought him hours of enjoyment. He has played with it nearly EVERY DAY since it arrived. He can place anywhere along his tracks (works with Ikea brand tracks). He lifts the arms up and down, stops cars, moves trains. It has really been a great addition and enhancement of his imagination and play. +2243 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Good game to teach active listening skills to children. +Both expansions provide new Lords, buildings, Intrigue and Quests cards, and additional agent tokens for not just the extra player, but each of the original colored player tokens. As with the original board game, the molded plastic is designed to hold all of the items in a specific manner for well organized storage. + +Undermountain really shines in terms of the many quests that it adds into the mix of things with rather challenging requirements but also significant rewards. The quests include those that require a good number of adventurers but the card can also allow for players to use any types of adventurers to complete the quest. Of course there are additional requirements that trigger depending on the sorts of adventurers you send into the mix. And there are some card and building effects that allow you to seed the board with various rewards like adventurers or money in order to entire players to go to that spot. + +9611 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is the second time I have bought this. It is a bit annoying that you have to pay another 7.95 to actually get the caterpillars. So save the habitat and just order the caterpillars. +1817 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Great read. My boys enjoyed it. +3894 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this pack for his birthday and he was pretty excited to get it. He knew it was coming, and would. Not. Stop. Asking. +3080 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Someone call HR, this dolphin is out of control. +2910 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 These adorable 5 little monkeys are a hit in my toddler classroom. The children love all the books and we often sing the rhymes in the bed and in the trees. They love being the children chosen to hold a monkey! Great supplement! +3014 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this as a gift for my cousin for his birthday. I let him pick it out. He is very pleased with this and I am more than pleased with the quality of this lanyard. +8565 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We absolutely love this game, as a family. We play it in 2, 3, 4 and it's always fun. Strongly recommend it for families with young kids (elementary & middle school). Easy to carry when travelling too. +7811 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This game is a classic that I played when I was little. Our original game held up for years. I don't see today's version holding up for too long. It's the same thing of they don't make them like they used to. +I've played a half dozen times now, and despite the length of the game and the sometimes off-putting horror theme, it has become a fast favorite of my gaming group, which is comprised of twenty and thirty-somethings with an equal mix of men and women. + +570 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is one of those games that keeps coming out at parties again and again. +4490 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This is such a fun game for all of my family- adult children and grand children. We even take it on trips to play at our motel. + + + +655 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gave as gifts +3370 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 "To Forge A Realm" is pretty typical of other expansions, in that it gives you new tokens and cards that you can either swap out or mix in with the original game components. Sometimes this doesn't really make for a new gaming experience or strategy, but does bring some novelty to a game you've already played several times (and probably enjoy, otherwise there's no sense in buying an expansion). +2930 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 2 1/2 year old son LOVES the five little monkeys... so much that he will sing the song over and over for 30 minutes straight! I bought the finger puppets for him for Christmas and he couldn't have been happier. He took a play bed and immediately started holding the monkeys together to jump on the bed. There are even velcro on each of their hands so you can interlock them all together (which he figured out quickly and began to play 'ring around a rosie'). I'd say this was a big hit! +6811 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this for my grandchildren and they loved it from the very beginning. Since it's hard to capture their attention nowadays, I consider this a big hit. +(2) Jek Porkins (a fan favorite), a pilot skill 7 unique pilot that costs 26 points. I'm mixed about his special ability which reads, "When you receive a stress token, you may remove it and roll 1 attack die. On a HIT result, deal 1 face down damage card to this ship." A great way to possibly do two K-turns in a row; but with a risk. +4047 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It's a great addition to my collection! +613 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great +1544 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My children love it! +The Original Dr. Games since 1993 +Wedge as a pilot (who only comes in this pack), thanks to his ability and PS, still sees the table. Of all the original X Wing's, he is the one that almost unarguably is still useful. Best Part Of This Pack. (The fact he's appearing now in SW: Rebels, so a new generation of youngsters is being introduced to him, just makes it all the better). +6289 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A new favorite toy for my granddaughter. +4218 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The premise of Chrononauts and Early American Chrononauts the same, so this will be a dual review. In the game, you are a Time Traveler with a Secret Identity and a Secret Mission. Your job is to collect priceless artifacts, repair enough paradoxes, or change time enough to arrive back safely at your alternate timeline. For this example, we will be, Betty and our mission will be "The Scientists' Wish List." We can see on our card, that we want the year 1945 to be black and 1968 and 1969 to be red. (We'll get to how to make that happen.) For the artifacts, we need to collect any Live Dinosaur, the Crown of Thorns, and a Cure for Cancer. +Other things, I love about this game are the unique gameplay options you can experience. If you can't find a friend or family member to play with you, there is a solo option. If the regular way of playing isn't challenging anymore, you can combine Chrononauts and Early American Chrononauts to make Uber Chrononauts! There are also very affordable expansions! A lot of games make you buy a whole new game with more cards (or pieces) to get new content, but for a few bucks, you can get 13 new characters with the Lost Identities expansion, and what's neat is they used fan submissions to craft these cards. Crazy Joe is my favorite in this pack, as he wants you to have 13 un-patched Paradoxes on the board. 13 paradoxes normally means everyone loses, but in this case he wins! It's a nice way to add a little chaos among friends. If you don't need more identities, there's also an option called The Gore Years, which expands the timeline from 2000-to 2008 and helps us imagine what could have happened if Gore instead of Bush had become President. I'm personally hoping we get another expansion after the next election called The Trump Years (or something similar to that). +3036 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 love for card making +2103 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 Not to be a scrooge, because the kids do have fun getting look for the Elf every morning. But as a parent, I have to warn other parents. Think of how much magic has to be conjured for this Elf to move every single night! Poor, hard-working Elf. It's a delicate house of cards to have Santa's magic tied with this guy. Resist! +5735 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We love playing this game. The re play is high and it's good value for the price of the deck. I just wish my husband wouldn't take it to work and leave it there. I'd like to play it more! +he loved it. +4123 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is the second 'small box' expansion for Eldritch Horror - I would compare this to the 'Forsaken Lore' expansion, which is the first 'small box' expansion. Strange Remnants adds one new Ancient One along with the supporting card decks. It also adds more cards to all the location decks, making all of those decks taller and increasing the variety of cards pulled during any given game. Many would argue that getting 'big box' expansions like 'Mountains of Madness' (which I also own) is a better investment but it depends on your approach. I do enjoy getting new side boards and so on but I actually prefer beefing up the base game mechanics with new cards to add variety. For me personally I prefer 'small box' expansions as they add more to the base game without adding any clutter like new side boards. Also, 'small box' expansions have a lower buy-in cost than 'big box' expansions. To sum up, if you're an EH fan you probably already have this and if you're on the fence I'd say get it just to beef up the base game card variety. +4481 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I use this in my 4th grade classroom and my kids love it! It would be great if the game had some word examples in it to help the kids start to build their words. +3627 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The quality is not perfect but much more worth this price. +1587 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great +1105 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Apparently they do play board games in college. This is all the rage on campus and a request from the dorm. +110 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Good game for helping kids deal with anger. I'm using both one on one and in group therapy. I think the price is high for a card game, but the game itself is a helpful tool to teach anger management. + +4666 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Product as pictured. Arrived early. +9785 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this for my 1 year old grandson's birthday, it was a hit at the party and will be well used by him for a long time. The other babies enjoyed the tent as well. +4347 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love everything crossword, scrabble, words with friends. Bananagrams is among my favorite word games. +2744 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 He is adorable and the perfect size for the person who will be receiving him. +6461 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Childhood memories for my young ones . +9364 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I ordered this through a wish list as a gift to a 1 year old boy. the drum was packaged well and is a good size for a kid. comes with 2 mallets, I think. the box was sealed so I could not see inside but I can hear the mallets moving about. the box has a peak through window so you can see the drum and the fabric. looked really nice to me and felt like a good drum even an adult could use. I hope our little cousin loves his gift and drums on it all the time. hopefully his parents won't hate us :) +8994 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 GOOD +4724 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 gift +8315 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 love this game as a kid and I love playing this game with my son now +9821 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My twins and their friends have so much fun playing in this tunnel. Also it is compact enough to take on vacation! +3709 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love this figure. She is a really good size and the detail is great +4028 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 I thought I'd get more into the game but no. + + +5879 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Sellswords, from Level 99 Games, is a fun and engaging light card flipping game. At the beginning of the game twelve cards are dealt out in a pile in the middle of the table. Back and forth, each player takes one of the cards, which boasts a red side and a blue side, depending on who plays it. Each card has four attack numbers on its sides, as well as special text that allows for special abilities during the game. Placing a terrain card in the middle of the table, which may contain special modifiers to the game, players take turns placing their cards next to already placed cards or the terrain. When a card's attack value on the side that is adjacent to an enemy card is greater than the enemy card's, the active player may flip the enemy card over to his color. Each card's special abilities, however, can be game changers. For instance, a card may allow you to attack a card two spaces away instead of just being adjacent. One card will allow you to successfully any card around it, but then that card itself must be flipped. Some cards effect scoring. And there are many, many more. Once all cards have been placed, scoring takes place by determining the number of your cards in rows and columns. After two rounds, the player with the most points wins. +6908 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I love the logic of this game and couldn't wait to share it with my husband. Unfortunately it is not as fun for him because he has very large hands and fingers which make it impossible for him to position the pegs in the holes. This is a huge dissapointment for both of us. +8765 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My daughter is in 2nd grade and this product works well for drilling basic math facts. I like that you can select different levels of difficulty and different operations to practice. I also appreciate that this is a product that will grow with my child, and she will be able to use to drill the basics for several years. And of course, these drill can be done on computers or tablets or phones, but those things have all sorts of other distractions on them; if she's working on this, at least I know it's math she's practicing! +9165 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great. My 2 1/2 year old grandson will love these. His parents maybe not so much!!!! +Light Theme +2016 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Nice story ! The kids really look forward to the elf coming and staying with them till Christmas Eve. The kids enjoy looking for him each day and I love reminding him that he is watching. The kids are a little skeptical about Christmas, I hope I get another year of the magic. +----- +It's a fast-paced game and supremely fun for anyone who likes Scrabble or crosswords. There is only one Q and a couple of Zs. We allow proper nouns for those letters in our game---otherwise they end up in words like "qi," a real word allowed by Words with Friends, meaning "energy." The less players quibble about whether these kind of words are "allowed," the more fun they will have. There are no points to keep as in Scrabble. You just try to go as fast as possible to use up all tiles. +7364 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Kids love this classic board game. Was priced very attractive and shipped quickly. + +I just bought this one to start another game with other people and after playing it just once, everybody is on board and ready for more! The pawns are great, the map is great with the dry erase back, giving us endless terrain and adventure! The only problem was insufficient dice! And since I am currently living in Egypt, I couldn't find it anywhere here, so I had to have a family member, visiting the states, pick it up for me! +1717 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Wow! My son is captivated by the story and the elf itself. Highly recommended. +8071 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great old fashioned game +1701 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 An awesome addition to our Christmas! +4470 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game, a hit with our family! Super cute banana case with zipper for storage. +5252 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Bought this game for "Family Night" at our son and daughter-in-law's house. We have never played it, but they have told us they really enjoy playing it. +9243 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 kids love it. +It is truly a beautiful toy, well-made yet so intricate! +-Simple Concept, Lifetime to Master +4108 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 I do a lot of puzzles and couldn't wait to do this one. It's the greatest picture! However, I went a little crazy! It's been a few months, but I'm almost sure this is the one where the pieces fit but it's still not the correct piece. It looks right, but it's not the intended piece. I just don't have tolerance for those kids of puzzles! I gave it away asap because I knew I'd never do it again. I wanted to love it and wish it was made differently. + +4361 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love this game. It is faster paced than Scrabble and so much fun. I got it to help get my kids spelling and putting words together, as well as for myself because it makes you think. +The bright side is that bananagrams is also a pretty free form game. It can work with a number of players (even 1), could easily be played in teams, could be played as one giant crossword rather than 1 crossword per player, and with some additional thought, more alternative game types could be created (maybe even something as simple as "nouns only"). +It is fun for kiss and parents, she wakes wanting to find him. It is adorable how excited she gets looking for him. Then when she finds him, she is overjoyed! +Definitely recommend Fluxx to anyone. + +Sound simple? It's not! Everyone at the table is trying to do the same thing, and once you successfully get an organization into your 'power structure' it still can be taken away by another player. +This game also really opens up to some great house rules if you want some real marathon sessions, or a quick 30 minute game. +3323 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Husband plays many board games. Enjoys this with his gaming friends, son-in-law and even teen children. Enjoy! The End! * +P.S. After much further research, I believe either of these two sets (Stratego Vintage Wood Book Edition) or (Library Stratego Game Set) are equivalent to the Vintage edition described above, and at least one may be available inexpensively at Target. +After clearing each level, the player is left to decide whether he or she wants to push deeper into the dungeon or to return back to the tavern to lick their wounds and sit safely until the next round. Play then passes to the next players on the left until each person has gone three times. After every participant has played three times, the treasures and experience earned are tallied up and the player with the highest total is the winner. +This is a great way for a kid to sit, relax, and spend some quiet time. Surprisingly, this is also a great way for an adult to sit, relax, and spend some quiet time. +6867 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This was a gift for our 7yo for Christmas, who is a math whiz and logic nut. It was the perfect gift. It engages his little brain in a different logic puzzle every time we play. If you play to 30, like the instructions say (a codemaker gets 1 point for every guess the codebreaker takes), he beats me every time. He is better at logic! He always solves in fewer guesses than I do. +2177 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Thanks, Quick shipping, exactly as described. +8051 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 1 star because I want you parents to understand the game CAN actually hurt (no harm) the kids sensitive young nerves in the hands; but actually hurts. +7788 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased this for my son for Christmas. He loves playing with the money, the coins especially. The set up is pretty simple, it has a calculator, on/off buttons and an open button. The money looks fairly realistic-the coins more so than the bills, and the trays can accommodate real currency as well. This is a great cash register for a child to pretend with. + +7406 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game for young kids. Just long enough to hold their attention. +6838 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We love playing this game as a family. We make it into a tourmanent. The only downfall is the cover that covers the master peg colors comes off easily, also on the side where the colored pegs and the smaller white and red pegs are get mixed up very easily. There needs to be more of a sepatation +1. It's makes noise that is appealing to children but very annoying to the adults in our family. +The game is fun for the adults in the house too. It reminds me a little of dominos because you have to match future pieces with pieces previously played. I think it is a little easier to play than dominos because there is a little less strategy involved. However, it is still a super fun game. I would recommend this game for a bright 4 year old, but be prepared to provide a little assistance. A typical 5 or 6 year old should be able to play this game with little to no help. This is a fun family game that everyone can play and enjoy! +1537 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Every household with children needs an elf on the shelf! I bought this for my classroom and soooo happy I did! Book is hardcover and box is sturdy for years of protection! I bet you could pass this down for generations ;) +Both Europe and Marklin also split your initial ticket allotment into long (blue-backed) and short (brown-backed) routes; you get to choose how many of each you want to do--unlike the USA base set, which is totally random in its ticket distribution (long routes are harder to complete but offer more bonus points to win than short routes). +2436 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I love Mickey Mouse and so does most of my friends. I have had this on multiple products and it has stuck on them all and has not tried to come off. Everyone I have gave one to loves it. +You want almost infinite replay value? +If you like fun 2 player games check out Rivals for Catan, Race for the Galaxy (incredibly complex), or Samurai (by Knizia also). +1785 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My kids LOVE our elf and they really enjoyed hearing the story. +Add an extra star if you believe that laughter is a good aerobic activity! +I only have one real issue with this game and that is that the cards used are small cards - not your standard playing card size. It's terribly annoying for shuffling, etc. I really wish they'd make them standard size instead. +3097 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I sourced and purchased this Belkin cable at Amazon because of its remarkably low price there for the features I was seeking. It's a great deal for a 25' length printer cable of this type and it works perfectly. Now, I can connect and remotely operate my existing computer printer that I've manged to keep working way beyond it's anticipated lifespan. This' one small victory despite the computer printer industry's diabolical world of cross subsidy business models that totally dominates our printer markets. +3638 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I just finished playing my first ever game of Adventurers: Pyramid of Horus, with my two six year old twin boys, my nine year old boy, my thirty year old brother and his thirty one year old friend. Why do the ages matter? Because every single one of us had an absolute blast from six years old all the way up to the thirties. When the game first started off it went at a medium pace but as each round came to a close and another block dropped into the pyramid, blocking the path out, things really began to heat up! The frantic balance between going further into the pyramid for one more treasure versus playing it safe and staying close to the exit for small treasure is perfect. My six year old boys understood the rules and with minimal help were able to manage their own turns. I just can't say enough about how fun and exciting this game was. The quality of the board, miniatures, cards and accessories was top notch but I expect nothing less from Fantasy Flight games. By the time the dust settled the entire family had laughed, yelled, jumped out of our seats, shouted with joy and had the greatest fun with a board game we've had in a long time. I highly recommend this game to all ages, if you can handle a little excitement and adventure that is! +7039 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Good cash register for the price. +8321 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I just had to review Mousetrap because I saw that it only had an average of three stars. I bought this for my six year old boy who had seen it in his daycare where some of the pieces apparently were missing. He's very interested in marble-runs, particularly rube-goldberg type things that his dad shows him videos of on the internet. +3439 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is the first time I do face painting....and it turned out so awesome!! Kids were so happy and I got lots of complements from people..they said that it looked like a professional work. +4814 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have had this for about 2 months and both my boys love it. (ages 8 & 4) The parts are soft and squishy but are fun to take out and put back inside the body form. Great tool for learning. +If you have lil ones and looking for a family game, this is perfect. +2636 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this for a Christmas gift for my 11 year old niece. It's done in the typical Klutz style with easy to follow directions. Should come in handy for making posters and just fun writing. +6250 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 for rock crawler it a lots fun don't buy it if you want speed rc it goes real slow but lots of fun +Big thumbs up from our group! +7203 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 So fun!! +* Well-designed pieces connect well and allow for excellent spinning action of the gears +1784 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love this product and fun Christmastime family activity! Will be making this a yearly tradition:-) + +Just as fun to play with my 10 year old now as it was with my sister in the 1980's. +In a nutshell, the corporation builds itself up by placing agendas on the field as servers, and guarding the servers with ice (defensive firewalls) until they can score that agenda. Runners build up their power, and make runs (or attack) the corporations servers, trying to steal agendas to score. On the surface it seems like a simple concept, but after playing a few games you realize that there is more strategy involved than you initially expected; I imagine that people who rate this game poorly haven't played enough to realize this, and chalk it up to being a luck based game. While I concede that any card game has a bit of luck involved in what you're dealt, I compare this to something like Magic The Gathering. Ever wonder why it's the same group of people who sit at the finals each year? As with this game, there's a lot of strategy in being able to play the hand you're dealt. + I would definately recommend this game to anyone even if your child has no interest in ships at all. I didn't and I still don't but the game is a classic. +7770 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great quality wooden block set. Bought for three year old granddaughter. She's very pleased but her Poppa is a bit annoyed with me because our 20 month grandson thinks they make grand missles. I must say I didn't think of that, but What an Arm on that boy!!!! +3772 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son-in-law is building his game collection and requested this. He was excited to play it during the Christmas holidays + Yes, they are, but Rio Grande seemed to be able to offer double-sided boards (Yes, that means two new maps) and new rule sets for Power Grid for less than half the cost of the original game. +D&D 4th Edition: A 64-page manual that is the same flimsy quality as the Player's Guide. Again, this doesn't really function as a guide book as much as it does an adventure that you're supposed to learn as you play. However, instead of trying to tell a story or investigate a full dungeon, it is instead just a series of battle encounters, separated in a way that feels devoid of a cohesive experience. You'll see an example of how all of the player character's and enemies' pawns are laid out on the map, and then a description of how a battle between these two groups are supposed to play out. You are intended to play through the encounter, and then start over with a different encounter with different enemies, learning a new basic combat maneuver. While this might be interesting to battle game strategists, there is no "Role Playing" here: no storytelling, no character development, nothing that makes you feel like you're actually part of the adventure aside from fighting enemies. Plus, this does again not function as a resourceful guidebook, as once you play through it once, you'll never need it again. There are no tools here for an aspiring dungeon master to craft their own dungeon, stories, NPCs, campaign setting, or any other tool necessary to keep playing after this first adventure. Your only choice is to play through the same encounters again, or shell out more money for the more advanced products, which will make this box seem redundant. I would rate this a 3/10. + +724 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Loved It! + +8538 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Second one of these - the kids love them +8279 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It is the old version! YES! +1819 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fast shipped, Toy as described. +5601 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This has to be up at the top of my husband's and my favorite Fluxx games (we own nearly all of them). There are clever references from Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and more. But it's not the references that makes this our favorite Fluxx but the game mechanics and some of the special action cards. I don't want to spoil it, but Brain Transference is my favorite. It stays fresh and fun when we've over played all the other Fluxx varieties. +5478 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 As someone whose watched this movie at least once a year for nearly 30 years, I'm a real Rudolph fan. When I had the chance to grab a Rudolph game made by the Scene It game makers which have entertained me for so many hours, I jumped on it. This game definitely has a little kid bent to it, but for a person who can recite all the movies lines with childish delight it's still a great game to play. +9624 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Nice addition to the wooden train set for my grandson +4528 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Love it! +9258 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great product nicely made. Great timely shipping. My niece enjoyed this drum for her 2nd birthday! + +6922 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 It seems silly to pile more praise on a "toy" that has received so much positive feedback; this puzzle/game/toy deserves all of it though. My son has had this for a couple of years now and it has been a constant source of entertainment. He pulls it out and it stays out for a week or more before going back on the shelf, and everyone in the family takes a turn at it. It is a great solitary game, though we have begun to add a timer (a sand filled hour glass works perfectly) just to take it up a notch. +For what it's worth, Candy Land (also by Hasbro) has shrunk to 20"x15", too and now includes smaller gingerbread men playing pieces and color block cards. I'm not thrilled about that, either, but the new Candy Land is still playable. Some games can tolerate more shrinkage than others. +7210 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 my granddaughters love the game +4180 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 got it for my cousin as he is a star wars collector. +2886 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 As we awaited the birth of our son, we found this adorable llama and thought it would be fun to have the llama, some red pajamas, and the "Llama Llama Red Pajama" book all ready for him. This item arrived much faster than I expected and is even cuter than it looks in the listing photograph! It makes a phenomenal baby gift. + +3346 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a fun board game, that can handle up to eight people. It is not hard to pick up, and a quick explanation can allow new players to understand the basics enough to play in a few minutes. It would be best if at least one person had a detailed understanding of the rules, as there are a few things that come up that don't happen often. It has a unique way of handling turns, which ends up rotating who goes next in a fashion that is unlike most games--it is based off of how many "turns" (or minutes) an individual takes at any given time--the more they take, the longer they wait for their next turn--based off of how many turns other players take as well. +381 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 This says it is 5 SHEETS when in fact it is 5 strips of paper. Definately NOT worth the money. The stickers were hard for the child to remove from the backing as the backing came off of the sheet with the sticker. +3878 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 PORKINS! +The bricks are surprisingly durable considering they are made of cardboard. My daughter weighs 42 lbs now and they are still supporting her weight (though I don't think they were meant to do so). +States it is for ages 8 and up. This is pretty accurate as I think it may be a little difficult for younger kids to have this much strategy. I don't think there is an age where someone outgrows the game. Keep in mind, this game has a ton of small pieces that can be lost or put in the mouth. This is something to keep in mind if purchasing for a gift. + +6967 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Very nice. Good learning toy. Only problem is that when you open the drawer it comes out so quickly the money flies out of the drawer. +Cons: +Because there's so much more to playing a game than just winning.... ;) +6104 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 cant get the helis to load. + +8397 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got this for my grand kids and they loved it as much as I did when I was a kid. It's a classic! + +I highly recommend this game for any number of players. Four players is absolutely the best, but it remains fun even down to one player. In fact, at one player there's no one to blame for bad decision but yourself. Set up and tear down is fairly easy, and other than getting one or two baggies for the cardboard chits, everything else in the box came pre-bagged and separated. Everything feels high quality, which is typical of Fantasy Flight Games. +2800 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great puppet. My daughter loves this guy. +9215 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I really enjoy playing with this toy with my kid, too! The pieces hold her interest and she is able to move them around by herself for imaginative play. The piece that turns in the middle is kid friendly, as it depresses into the toy when too much pressure is applied which I assume helps to protect the internal gears. I think I will also get the magnetic/refrigerator version of this + +1) it's a Remo, so high quality! +6258 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 awesome rc, hobby grade not toy (walmart or radio shack) only needs 4 aa batteries. will run along time but is slow but climbs everything. can do a few free mods to improve capability. would consider another one. +7809 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 It is a fun old classic game for very young children. +7491 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The all-time favorite pastime for me and grandkids, especially on a rainy day. I like that the kids will put down the tablets and sit and interact in a board game of fun. +Do you know what would make it even easier to play for older and younger people? Color coding the commodities. The cards are all grey and to sort them, you have to rely on the words. Colors would be better. +Definitely feels the lightest of all the Miniatures for its size. +2556 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Little girls love journals and what better than to have a journal they can decorate any way they want. This is more of an activity book, not a journal. Each page has a different activity to be performed. It comes with puffy paste, rhinestones, charms, and stickers that can be glued throughout the journal or on the outside cover. It provides hours of fun and allows the child to use their own imagination and decorate the journal anyway he/she desires. Highly recommend this product. +The highlight of this game is its asymmetric gameplay. The two sides have similar objectives which are to score Agendas, but they do so in different ways. The corporation must advance their Agendas while the Runner tries to steal them. +Had this 1 month now, love how the plastic arms pop off is too much pressure (or stepped on) and easy to pop back on. Not sure how long they will pop in and stay snug, I am sure if anyone can wear it out it is my boy... but so far so good. +We have come up with a scoring system of sorts just to provide an added twist. If you win, you get ten points per round. If you loose you must subtract 1 point for each letter left in your hand. Of course, you can easily come up with your own scoring system. It's just something our family does for fun. +(4) Black Sun Enfforcer, a level 1 non-unique pilot that costs 25 points. + +*Gila Hands Arcology (4.5) *Haas Arcology AI (3) *Heimdall 2.0 (4) *Howler (1) +2632 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got this for my 7 year old daughter for Christmas. She loves it! Would recommend it if you need a gift for a girl +4717 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Awesome! +These he has had great fun with. I didn't give it 5 stars only because like other reusable stickers they really aren't very reusable. They only stay 'sticky' for the first few uses then they kept falling off which frustrated him. But the price wasn't bad so as long as you consider them consumable and don't plan on them lasting forever you'll be getting a pretty neat product. He really did enjoy them a lot, he is age 3 1/2 (does 100pc puzzles, builds with regular Legos, very mechanically inclined.) +4958 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Gave this to my grandson for Christmas. He is a very sports-oriented boy, and doesn't usually choose anything over playing outside. However, he loves this game and asks to play it very often. It is good for all ages. +Oh, and did I mention this is TINY? The whole book is about the size of a passport (but with less pages) and there is about 4 robots total on the little pages (parts are parts, but I counted 1 head, 2 arms, 2 legs, 2 feet, and a body on each of the 4 pages). +By now, I've played almost 10 games or so almost all of them with 5 players. As expected the game feels much more balanced now. A lot more combat. But as one commenter pointed out this game plays best with 6 players. Having 6 players forces combats and that's when things get really interesting. +3826 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 As someone who's played card games such as the Star Wars CCG and Pokemon (on the gameboy) many, many, many moons ago (and have somehow found my way back into this mess through deciding on going analog and collecting board games instead of video games the past few months), this reignites an old flame. +8984 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this toy for my son when he was two. I cannot stress how much he LOVES these dolphins. He has played with them every bath time for the past 5 and a half years. The dolphins have taken quite a beating and are still going strong. Not only have they been a constant bath time toy, but they have been thrown around the backyard, driven around in dump trucks, buried in the sand box, still fine. We have a new baby and I will definitely buy him his own set. +8604 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 groovy +4302 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 love this game, especially if you like scrabble! + +6024 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I'm a huge SOA fan so I naturally connected with this game. The pieces are all a higher quality build and the game is attached at the hip to the show. +This is the most fun that I have had with a game since I first discovered Magic, and easily surpasses that level as well. It's just a deeper game than other similar card games, requiring more than just good deck construction. The depth of strategy is fascinating and enjoyable to discuss. +6370 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great box, perfect for the tea set +This is the best dungeon crawl game I've ever played. I find it difficult to imagine something working out better. +494 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My husband, my 7 1/2 yr old daughter and I LOVE to play this game! +then give them trouble. +5332 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This game is so much fun and best part even the little ones can play. No big rules, no set up or anything...just out of the box and ready to play. Fantastic concept. Colors are vibrant, I hope the paint holds on without chipping. +1403 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My entire family loves to play this game and when friends come over, they also ask to play. I also bought the extension pack of more travel destinations for even more routes to travel !!! +6416 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We bought Hi-Ho Cherry-o and Trouble for my son's 4th birthday, and while he enjoys both, Trouble is more fun for the adults to play. My son is old enough to push the pop-o-matic as long as he's perched high enough on his chair. +5154 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great family game +Each player takes turns moving a character. The characters are set in plastic holders so the opponent cannot see which they are until they are engaged. When an opposing player advances into a realm held by the other player's character a battle ensues. Unless there is an ability resulting in automatic defeat of another or retreat, combat ensues. Each player chooses an attack card, reveals it at the same time and players modify battle based on the text or the strength number of the revealed card. The character with the higher strength wins the battle, though there are cards which end in other results such as Noble Sacrifice which the Fellowship can play to end in defeat for both characters. The cards are discarded after use. Play continues until a result ends in a win for either side. +The game is played in the rounds or each playing delving into the dungeon three times each. The first player then rolls the 7 white dice to determine their party that may include Champions, Fighters, Wizards, Thieves and Clerics. The person to the Players left is the Dungeon Lord and rolls the Dungeon Dice as well as tracks the current players lever with the Level Die. + +5641 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I have had this game for years and have played this game well over 100 times. I have also played it with many different groups of people. Every group has loved it. I have tried nearly every Fluxx game, and always come back to this version. In my opinion, it has the most versatility of any version. For those familiar with the game, it has Creepers, Keepers with abilities, a good amount of surprise cards, and some fun/unique action and rule cards. +5957 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Originally posted at www.throatpunchgames.com, a new idea everyday! +4109 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This puzzle takes concentration but that is why I do jigsaw puzzles. It has become a tradition in my house that we put together as many jigsaw puzzles as we can during the Christmas break. Usually we can do at least one a day for the week between Christmas and New Years sometimes two. This one didn't get finished in the time we were off so I had to pack it away for summer. Beautiful puzzle though. +8526 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is actually one game I like to play with my kids. They love it. Lots of fun. Funny pictures. +6853 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son has had a great time figuring out this game and doing different configurations. Perfect for him and his sister at ages 6 and 4. +UPDATE: For enhanced play, consider the 1910 expansion. It includes larger, easier-to-read cards, additional destinations, and more winning conditions. It makes a four-star game into five! +4639 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 the game is ok. I don't like the feeling of it + +The narrator, a well-chosen, grandfatherly type who could very well have been in the original cast (though of course he was not), guides you warmly through the proceedings. The story is that the Misfit Toys have scattered and the players must rescue them before Bumbles the Abominable Snowman captures them. The DVD tells you where to place the toys and Bumbles and you choose to be Rudolph, Hermie, Clarice, or Yukon Cornelius. +696 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Awesome thanks! +5376 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This game is pretty simple to learn. The idea is to make 'runs' by matching colors or shapes. Scoring varies based on the tiles you place in a single play and if you are able to complete a series. My daughters enjoying playing it, especially my 8 year old. I find the game a little on the simple side for adults but it is much more enjoyable to play over Candyland and other child targeted board games. This game is a great family game. Add another game like Sequence and you have the makings for an enjoyable family game night. +I haven't come across a soul who didn't like this game, but you may say that my social circles are small. You are probably right, but I love growing them with games. My kids love to line up the trains from here to there, but they have severed my board in one place, so beware, the (read: any) board is best set up on a table rather than the carpet floor where wee feet are won't to walk. +Each player, in turn, can perform one of three actions: +1477 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased this game for my 7-year-old for his birthday, as we always get him a game for one of his gifts, and he loves trains. The game, which is for ages 8 and up, took a little bit of explaining, but he now understands it and loves it. To make the game a bit simpler, we are not using the "ticket" cards for now. This is something we will add once he can read and do math in his head a bit better. I would definitely recommend this game. It's something the whole family can enjoy. + +Mechanics-As I mentioned above, this is a deck building game. I like those games, but this one has the novel twist of letting all players do the same action as the lead player. Now, if you're lucky/smart, you can take an action each turn instead of just waiting for your turn like in Dominion. Also, the mechanics are very simple. Play a card, draw a card and play cards that match symbols for more results, and discard/draw. Easy as pie! But, don't let the simplicity of this game make you think that the game doesn't have some depth to it. 5/5 +3425 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Hard to decided who is more excited about these, my kids or me! +6737 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 We really like it I just wish the cars didn't slide off as easily from the tracks. +3830 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This item arrived as expected and was in good condition. No problems. +3945 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great Purchase +To me this game beats Pictionary, Charades and many others... +9905 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 8-year-old son has been using (and abusing) this tunnel for six years now. He doesn't just crawl in it... He also throws it around the house and yard, walks around with it over his body like a Mummenshanz puppeteer, and bends it, hooks, it, stuffs it, and otherwise tries his darndest to wreck it. +9171 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is an AWESOME toy! +9810 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a great set my kids play with all the time. I like playing with them as well. This is a family fun activity where we can make castles and farms together while making stories up. +Likewise, they recommend the game for 2-4 players. The first time I played, we played with 5 people. I don't see where it makes too big a difference, although too many people playing would make the game to hard to win. I think six might be the max that would make the game fun. +4013 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very fun, but you need several people to maximize the experience. +4763 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Almost 4 year old grandson loves trying to put the pieces in the plastic human body. Also seems to really enjoy using the tweezers. He already was fascinated by the human body so he couldn't wait to play with this + +1639 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My daughter is in love with her elf! Only change I would make is to glue his hat on. Will probably end up doing that ourselves. Excited to start such a fun tradition! + +If you love the theme but are on the fence and feel like your falling on the side of going for it? I'd say jump in and grab it. I know that this one is pretty pricey, but you do get a ton of gameplay for your money. My advice, if you have the means, is to grab either City Of The Ancients or Swamps Of Death. One or the other. You don't need both to give it a try - each box is a complete game. Whether or not you wish to expand can be determined later. If you still don't know? Then locate a local gamestore with a good reputation of customer service and see if they have live gaming going on - many of them do. If they are running a game, or if a patron is running a game then drop in to view it in action. + +You'd be surprised just how messed up that becomes when you play it though. It's actually pretty funny to watch some people wrap their heads around those two simple concepts. +5355 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We got this game for our son last Christmas and he still plays with it. It's really a lot of fun! +9124 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My husband suggested we order this game to play with our two grandchildren to "wean" them off of TV. It is easy enough for them play and exciting enough to hold their attention. We looked at local big box stores and several toy stores and we're unable to find them. I was very pleased to find this Original UNO Card game on Amazon. The cards are large and easy to hold and have held up to the exuberant use of two young kids. I highly recommend this card game for great family time fun. +3108 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 5 year old asked Santa for a unicorn. She got this one and was thrilled. It is a beautiful purple and blue and perfect for playing with dolls or by itself. +6607 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The whole family loves playing this game + +3116 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 These framelits with stamps set are great... They are so easy to use. Makes my card making so much easier and fast to work with. +Also you may as well say good bye to strategy, since any player might be able to steal the last item during a 5 play turn, to win the game thanks to your plundered item. +8824 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great product works perfect. +9224 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My three year old and 11 year old love to play with this! I originally bought it for my younger child but my oldest (11yr) enjoys playing with it too. Lots of fun! +6503 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My kids are 6 and 10 and they both LOVE this game. Even I enjoy it. My 10-year-old's occupational therapist introduced us to it as a way to help her learn to overcome frustration and solve puzzles. It has been a wild success. Both of my girls will sit and stare at the pieces and move them around and move them back until they get the solution. Particularly nice in my opinion is that the solutions are on the back of the cards, so if you do get really stumped, you can look at the answer. In our house, if you look at the answer, you have to start over and figure it out on your own after solving with the answer. I've found it helps with memory and perseverance. I highly recommend this game for kids and adults. There are three expansion packs you can also buy and you probably will need them as your kids will breeze through the first forty cards if they're anything like mine. +-Some may be turned off as to how much content this game has, maybe overwhelming +Accessibility: + +This Tile Lock Scrabble board is not much different with regard to the "locking" feature except that there are 4 raised nibs at the corners of each square into which the tiles get placed. The tiles DO NOT lock in place; they are just restricted from excessive movement. Obviously, my other board is a little over double this size. This board only measures 10 inches on all sides so it's closer to a travel or portable size. Besides the plastic board, a cloth bag holds all 100 tiles and four tile racks are included. +876 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This should be on most every "typical family" game shelf. Replaces the slot usually reserved for the ubiquitous monopoly board with a board game whose competitive gameplay keeps every player involved for the duration of the game. Unlike monopoly, game length shouldn't unnecessarily drag on (if you're taking more than an hour or two you might be doing it wrong). Gameplay works for 2-5 players but this board shines at 3-5 players (for a great 2-player variant try the Nordic Countries box). +The other think that I like about this is that there is a piece of education in here. I like to try to find some value in a game other than just pure entertainment. I think this is good for wee ones as it teaches them math skills such as judging the distance they want to cover and then determine the best gear to be in that will make it most likely for them to end up where they want to be. So there is some addition, subtraction, and some elements of gauging chance. Also, it makes them think about path finding and stringing up multiple moves to get through a technical turn. +4736 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A Christmas present for one of our grand kids. He loved it very much and we couldn't get it away from him! It's a great learning tool for the future nurse or doctor. +The sheer delight of a simple game will be satisfying as you see your children pop on the plastic bubble to 'toss the dice.' And you'll smile as you know those dice won't be easily lost. Milton Bradley were smart to use such a creative device without losing an ounce of fun. +5666 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 FLUXX, as always, is awesome! +1127 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very Fun, Great Gift. Go here quick. +5301 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a very easy game to learn where you can easily modify the rules to play for all ages. While, I bought this game to use with my young clients, my 2.5 and 4 year old daughters both loved playing a modified version of the game. +If my review was helpful to you, please choose YES. Thank you! +8950 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought these for my nephew (3 1/2 years) to add to the basic Gears Gears Gears set I bought him last year. My son had these when he was younger and used them for years - they really grew with him and the adults that played with the Gears with my son, and now my nephew, equally enjoyed playing with them. It is a great open-ended toy and they hold up really well. I highly recommend this to everyone - both boys and girls - for play over many years from at least 3 years to 12 years for the motorized kits and such. +A MUCH BETTER and virtually FREE chemical rocket can be found on the Steve Spangler website. It uses things you have in your house to build the rocket. The only thing you'll need to buy is a rubber stopper. Plus, the site actually talks about the reaction that's happening. +1438 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We love this game. It's not hard, but it does require strategy, so it keeps your interest. Great game to p,ay with friends and family. +I totally recommend this screen. +My biggest disappointment with this game is the plastic they used for the container. Very cheap plastic. It cracked and tore the first 1 or 2 plays. The rest of the game pieces are quality. +You can't win with the various Creepers, but you probably can't win without them, either. The Ungoals throw the game to the forces of evil, and even the regular Goals are delightfully twisted ("The player who has Federal Agents and the Drunk on the table wins"). If you know your Lovecraft, you'll enjoy getting the story references, and if you don't, it doesn't affect the gameplay. As usual with Fluxx, sheer luck determines the winner, but in Fluxx, unlike, say, chess, winning isn't the point. You get to play with madness, and isn't that cool? +Overall, though, this product comes as advertised and is a nice addition to my collection of Scrabble boards. +8577 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Son loved it ! now wants a bigger one +8328 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This looks exactly like the original one did years ago. Good quality. +7540 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Classic that my 3 year old grandson loves to play +3333 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We love this game, it is like a little mini D&D session and you play it with almost anyone. It does take a very long time to play though. +7942 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The ORIGINAL. Great game. +3823 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 These figures are amazing. I'm a budget collector, and I've never seen such high detail figures for the price. They're made of rubber and hard plastic, and they're not as detailed as something you might buy for $125-$500 dollars, but considering I've purchased these all for $10-$15 on sale, I couldn't recommend them more if you don't have thousands of dollars to have a fun and attractive collection. I love waking up and seeing these on my shelves. +4598 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Simple fun game that lets the player work on his own yet has a sense of competition. Much faster than Scrabble and lets you rearrange the tiles as your letters change. They are two different games; people are going to like one more than the other. I like Bannanagrams best. +9388 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We bought this for our 21 month old grandson. It was an instant hit. He picked the mallets right up and played...he loved it. The bottom is skidproof, the sides have colorful rainforest animals and the mallets fit right into little hands (and big too). He played the drum all day and got it out again in the morning. Very high quality, looks great sitting in a room, an excellent choice for this age. +5112 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great fun for the whole family. Matching shapes and matching colors even for the youngest ones. + +4050 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The Scum Villainy faction is an interesting development for this game giving us a third player in the civil war. + +If you are a GM who has purchased Your Story and you are thinking of setting your campaign in some other town than Chicago (as per the first chapters of Your Story) you will still find this volume useful, albeit not *as* useful, for its "Monster Manual" content (and you should keep your eyes open for a promised volume "Dresdenifying" Baltimore). +1786 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 First I have to say that our house doesn't use this as leverage. I merely do it for the fun and magic of Christmas. +This is a well designed game with some quality components and mechanics... and with adult themes. This game also took us about 3 hours to play a game as with did negotiate every turn but it should be able to be played within 90 mins. +There's a section on the active wars taking place as we speak in Dresden's world. +This game has great repeatability as well - every question card has 3 questions per side, and the cards are meant to be played once through on the yellow side, then back through on the blue, choosing one question from the card each time. +I even like that the map give a little bit of a geography lesson to us everytime we play. +PART 2: REBEL TRANSPORT SHIP AND UPGRADE CARDS + + +3643 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 High quality dice bag that sets me apart from the rest. No need for a crown royal dice bag anymore. The symbol is painted on, although it appears embroidered in the photo. An inexpensive dice bag to show off your uniqueness! +Our Mom has said more than once that she wished the elves were around when we were kids. It's a cute idea and fun off the whole family. Just be sure that the elf moves or you might have some tears the next morning! My sister had to get creative fast and thank goodness the website had a letter from Santa she was able to customize! +The wooden components are colourful, well produced, and good quality. The only draw-back is that the colours could pose a problem for the colour blind or in low light. + + +4637 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 This was a Christmas present and it worked as expected. My son played with it a few times and it's now sitting on a shelf. + +761 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What a fun game, easy to learn and loads of fun!!!!!! We are having a blast with it. +Three named and one generic pilot, missiles, mines, cannons and defensive upgrades make this a valuable addition to the game. +8394 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 My 4 year old has been asking for this game and even though I never played or owned it as a child, I thought it looked fun as well. Imagine my disappointment when I went to the store and saw the "redesigned" game that did not resemble this one, which I think is similar to my childhood memories of the commercials. + +8820 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Just what I asked for. +3686 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 I bought this game after seeing some positive reviews and an interesting premise, however things went badly after I broke it out with my gaming group. +3282 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 If you are willing to learn lots of rules that lead to game with depth then this game is for you. + + +5145 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game for adults and children can also play +3375 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The first expansion, can't wait to torment my friends with it. +This is a great game and the app makes playing by yourself almost as much fun as playing with three of your friends or family. It is a great game and well worth a buy to add to your gaming collection. +797 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The board was not completely flat when opened up, so I put a very heavy large book on it overnight and it flattened right out! + +8593 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I'm not sure why we love this game, but we absolutely do. I have one child who plans everything, one who never takes a chance, a husband who is a stickler for detail and myself, a "play by the seat of my pants" gal - and we all enjoy this game! +146 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great easter message in a world that is just full of easter bunnies!! Kids love it +3935 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Here's the key points you need to know about this expansion + +4816 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got this for my 9-year old grandson for Christmas. He really liked the squishy organs. I made a good choice for once. +2254 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 So as everyone else, I want and need traditions for my daughter to grow up with. Since I have begun to see these elves everywhere and by elves I do not mean this product. I see the "elf on the shelf" I didn't run in to Christopher and Christina until I moved to north pole Alaska and the only large elf they had was Christopher and Christina so before making an instant purchase I came home and decided to do some homework. Come to find out Christopher was the original ELF. I will no longer follow the crowd of people supporting the copied elf. It's almost ridiculous how someone's idea can be copied as closely as it has. so my daughter will be receiving Christopher and until she's old enough to appreciate it mom and dad will be enjoying him :) I love the book as well it's simple and has a page in the end to sign it to someone which also makes it a cute keepsake. It is also perfect sized but it was kind of a pain to remove it from the box I mean after you cut the strings you can flip it over so that is fine and the box is perfect for being able to store the elf and book for later. Definitely recommend this product for your family choice especially instead of the elf on the shelf and there is also more than just this one there are additional books and characters. +I never read to her that stupid "book" of course. And the toy elf is still somewhere in her toy chest I think. +1196 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have been addicts since Christmas! Most of the game we are quietly freaking out that someone is going to take our spot on the board. Kind of stressful but so fun! +4385 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 just a game ordering went well! + + + I even get away with playing my knid of music without the children moaning or noticing! + +4512 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Not much I can say about Bananagrams other than it is a great quick, easy and fun game. Takes little storage space and wordsmiths get a kick out of it. +3195 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Kits are not only effective, they are wonderfully scented. Lemon Verbena cleaners have been a favorite all summer, but now as winter approaches you might want to try the "Gingerbread" Scent as it is simply delicious! +2273 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Just the book only +2915 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 So much fun to go with the book! No beads, so seems safe for toddler. + +3778 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Everything is fine. I am happy with the purchase. I think that more and buy more than once. Thank you. +2366 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This card driven game has elements of hand management, asynchronous role selection, and deckbuilding on top of a space 4x theme. The 4x is pasted on since you cannot attack each other and each player is building a tableau of cards. The unique follow/dissent mechanism tied to the role selection of other players means you really have to pay attention to other players turns and not tune out until your next turn. Great spin on the typical deckbuilder card game. A good amount of replayability with several paths to victory. +I found the launch instructions lacking in safety warnings. In five launches we had one kid hit in the face by the rocket almost immediately after setting it on the ground and a second hit with the stopper that shot out prematurely as the rocket was being set on the ground. Maybe we didn't get the stopper tight enough - who knows? In hindsight this toy makes a better cork gun than a rocket. +158 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 LOVE these puzzles!! This one is a gift but we have several and my now three year old loves them. We've had one for just over a year and it has held up very well! + +9 out of 10 +2287 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We really like this set. Our girls are too young this year to keep from fighting over the elf and not touching him, as the book says, so we will just try again next year. I expect it to be great fun when they are about 4 years+. +6326 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased these to go on top of a cake for my friends daughters 15th Birthday that I made. They stood up great and are really cute. She thought they were the best gift that night! They now sit on her shelf with her other collectibles. +There's extra agents to play a 'long game' variant, which is nice (broke 200 points once o. O). +694 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We bought this for our son when he was 5. The three separate compartments are great, I like that it's made of metal not plastic and I like that it can be rubber-banded together or separated. It's very sturdy and has survived being dropped and knocked about. He loves portioning out his money into the different areas and seeing how it grows. We aren't using the little bank book yet, because he still puts money in randomly sometimes, so we'd have to count it constantly. It will be nice to use in a couple of years though. + +2 reference cards. +But once you get over the learning curve this game just keeps giving. Like I said I only played 1 game with my roommate and I can already tell that I will have to play SEVERAL games with the SAME hero in order to truly understand how to use him perfectly. Which is surprising considering that each individual hero only comes with their unique ability card (1), finishers (2), Style cards (5), Unique base (1), and tokens if they have any. For most games you would think you can easily master understanding how to use the character after 1-2 plays. That's not the case for Devastation, within the 1-2 games you understand the core concept of the character. But it seems like I will not truly master the character until I have AT LEAST 5 games as them. +3994 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The XCOM franchise has had a fond place in my heart ever since I played the video game version on the PC. So, when I saw Fantasy Flight announce a board game version, I got excited. When I found out they would be integrating an app into the game mechanics, my head nearly exploded. Now that I have played it a dozen times, I love it. +8621 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 really cool, but fasteners start to loosen and don't pop back on and stay. +Where this set shines is the included dungeon and fold out playing mat. The playing pieces are cardboard but for the price, I think we are all after a decent playing system first and foremost over fancy minis. +9045 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Good product, my son likes it. Should get one for your kid. +3555 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I paid about a dollar and a half for these adorable owl stickers. They are great for goody bags and for my toddler who has a voracious desire to stick endless amounts of stickers on paper. This is a great deal. +5237 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a very fun family game. It's good for all ages. Kids have to plan ahead before their move...easy to understand. + +6051 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Hands down my favorite board game. It's great with 2 people (you can each race with a couple of cars like a team) it's great with 4, 6, 8, 10 people! The game is super deep too. Meaning, there's a really easy to pick up and play beginner mode, then there are still 2-3 more modes you can play with increasing difficulty and complexity. Absolutely a fantastic game. A must have. + +2481 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 cool idea- finally +1485 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This is a WONDERFUL game! Fun for the whole family! The item was shipped very fast, and was still in the wrapping! Great item a must have! +The die is contained, the pieces are pegs with slots. +3393 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Kids enjoyed the art books. + +2453 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Thx + +2102 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Received this as a Christmas gift when our son was born. It is a great family tradition. The elf and the book are fun to share with our year old. He enjoys looking for the elf each day when he is placed around the house. The elf is not very sturdy, but it is not meant to be played with. +9213 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Probably the most exciting pieces of trace you could ever buy! +2924 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very cute ! +366 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I have a three year old son and 18 month daughter. Lots of different trucks, even some new ones for my son (which is saying a lot since he has at least 20+ different books about trucks). Cards are board and sturdy so my 18 month can handle them without causing damage. We have to start with 1/2 the pack as there are so many. + +6574 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 THANKS!!! + +Replayability (5 out of 5) +The game includes 36 treasure tokens and 24 experience tokens. These are your usual card board cut out pieces. the pieces are good thickness and didn't have too much of a problem punching them all out. The game also includes a rulebook along with a Book of Heros. The game play is simple, and the rulebook does well to explain the game and includes some illustrations. The Book of Heroes is just a book comprised of pages summarizing the different hero cards and providing further clarifying information as necessary. +Now --I love the fact that you are so engrossed in the game and solving the "puzzle" that you have to talk to one another. You have to focus on each other and no tv, phone, computer, or other distractions. Just you and your partner. I love it. +On the other hand, a couple we know bought one for their son...it absolutely freaked him out that the elf was creeping around the house at night. Lol. Understandable... +6713 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 toys for tots +659 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great gift +9111 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 A great gift. It has lasted for over two years with two male toddlers pounding on it often. I would highly recomend it. +3907 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My son was thrilled with this gift. I was pleased with the price and quick shipping. +7367 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 It is a good toy set. +I only managed to put in my Red Dragon Inn 1 Box and Red Dragon Inn 5 cards so far, and it's pretty apparent that this box will take quite a while to fill. For even the fully dedicated purchaser, this box is pretty big. I'm thinking about putting all my Cards Against Humanity expansions into one of the other columns at this rate! +506 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 On vacation my husband and I played Quiddler with friends. It was so much fun we decided we wanted to have it. I ordered the game on Amazon and after not playing it for a couple of months we opened the game with our neighbors a couple of days ago. We quickly remembered how to play and 2 hours later had played 2 games and laughed a lot. We anticipate our next game. +If you have friends or family who are BIG FANS of Star Trek , or they just like it this game is a great gift for them and they will love you for it! +4710 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Freddy (as we call him) got my 5 year old very interested. Great educational toy ! Would reccomend ! + +5248 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 Like many others the box was sealed but had no bag inside, no instructions, the paint was rough and peeling. In addition the wooden tile paint smelled terrible!! I tried airing out the tiles for a week on the porch but everyone who saw the game said the odor of the tiles was horrible and probably toxic paint. I threw the game away and wish I could reorder but too many others say they were disappointed by knockoffs also. +6083 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Formula D is a re-make of the popular French racing game Formula De. Though I never owned that game, I am told the two versions are very similar. The new version has a few minor rules changes and adds a street racing format as an alternative method of play. (I have not tried the street racing format, yet, but will update my game review when I have done so.) +- They can keep their stock, hoping the corporation will form again down the line. +6987 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 The kids really enjoy playing with the register but it could use a few more features to keep their interest. +However, I still prefer the Ticket to Ride Europe with the Days of Wonder Ticket to Ride 1912 Expansion because of it provides more interesting challenges (ferries and tunnels) and adds stations players can use to get around being cut off in completing their routes. These stations can easily be used in USA or other versions. Europe still has the "longest route" bonus points award but this is easier to get for everyone because if you have to use a station to complete a route ticket, it no longer counts toward your getting the longest route award. +3833 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Always high quality, fast delivery, and consistent. We've bought many, many expansions and will continue to buy from FFG. They're a solid company. +8493 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Rat-A-Tat-Cat is so much fun. My five year old grandson just can't get enough Rat-A-Tat-Cat time, and his laughter is contagious! +9271 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Brio tracks are classic and never disappoint. With tracks on both sides the curves are able to go right or left, adding flexibility to the track design. +Having played and reviewed the two Star Trek Deck Building games by Bandai, I was surprised that the card art was hand drawn as opposed to being actual movie stills. I have to say though that the card art is exceptional and full of theme. The hand drawn art almost looks like the real thing...a tribute to the artists who helped to make this game possible. + +2615 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 super cute! My neice is going to love this. +If you love Monty Python, buy this game. Even if you don't know what Fluxx is, you'll have a riot playing it! Trust me. +3) Chinese Checkers: The holes are not set deep enough into the board; therefore, the pathetic little lightweight plastic "balls" proceed to roll annoyingly to the four corners of the Earth every time someone even minimally touches the playing table, board, or any marble on the board. In fact, if anyone even closes a door in the house, turns on the radio, or a car backfires in the street, all of the pathetic little lightweight plastic "balls" on the board WILL indeed roll annoyingly to the four corners of the Earth. +182 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This puzzle was so much fun to do. Really liked the vibrant colors. +2008 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What an excitement for the children to wake up and look for the elf daily. What a wonderful tradition to add to our christmas history for our little ones to bring with them throughout their childhood to adult life. +1053 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My 8 year old just got this game for his birthday and we played for the first time last night. Everyone LOVED it. It was a little slow getting started since none of us had played before and weren't familiar with the strategy, but once we got started, everyone- including my 6 year old- picked it up quickly and really enjoyed the game. + +1413 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this game for my father who is really into board games. The whole family loves to play Ticket To Ride. It is the perfect balance of strategy and simplicity. Even my 7-year-old nieces and nephews enjoy playing this game with each other. +3665 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Besides some peoples coloring problems mines great and nicely made. + +2223 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Had a lot of fun with the family playing this game! +1497 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Incredible game for almost any age group. This board game has everything going for it. It is a great deal of fun, as each new game requires a different strategy from the last. The overall strategy tendencies are difficult to master, and after having played this game 50 times or more, I am still trying to decide the best strategic approach. It is very easy to learn, and after one play through you will never need to look at the rules again. The game is expertly constructed using materials that will not break or wear at any time in the near future. I plan to realistically have played this game thousands of times before any pieces need fixed/replaced. A group of my friends have a movie/game night once every week, and this seems to be the one game that everyone is always in the mood for. + +6092 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 With equal parts strategy and luck, simple rules for the basic game and a nice set of advanced rules, this game is a great game for everyone. +5935 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Flip City is an entry level and very portable table top card game with mechanic elements of push-your-luck and some strategy. +4077 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great detail and look great on my shelf when not playing the game. love this +7320 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Got this for my 5 year old granddaughter and she loved it. Works great and it's educational. Good quality. Works like a solar calculator, no batteries to buy or replace. It kept her interest for about an hour as well as her sister who is 8. +1965 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 The book and doll are fun and my son loves waking up to find out what his elf, Dog Dog, has in store for him. The first name the kid picks is supposed to be the Elf's name for life, in case you are wondering what kind of name that is. In any case, it's a fun story and a tradition the whole family has enjoyed. + +KEEPER cards are used to satisfy the Goal card's winning conditions. For instance, if the Goal is to have the Holy Grail and Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch Keeper cards and a player has played those cards, that player wins. +6546 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great classic game from my childhood that my kids also love! +8764 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Math Shark has been a big hit in our home! My 7 year-old son has really enjoyed playing with it and finds it easy to understand. Math Shark has several games to choose from including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, decimals, fractions, and percents. Each game also has various skill levels. There is even a calculator mode! Math Shark is portable and would be a great toy for car trips. It kept my son entertained for quite some time. +Knowing the limited resources of our teachers, I'm always on the lookout for small things that she can use. +1219 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Great game for an adult game night or to play with your kids/family. Our 10 yr old son loves it. +I think this intro does an excellent job but maybe it's my age because I think some areas are overly complicated. Where this beginner box excels is making these complications easier to understand. +7920 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 These Larger Size Blocks are a Nice Size But LACKING QUALITY CONTROL. The Paint is Missing on A lot of the blocks & they are giving off a Bad Chemical Smell on top of that. I Would Not Let Kids Play with these right away, AIR THEM OUT FIRST. I Bought these for my photography with kids and hoped to add another two sets to my Prop box But I Will Not Be Buying Any More. I hope I didn't just waste my money, these are made in China too. I Hope this feedback Helps. Truly Gerard +In fact, let's just cut to the chase - if you've played the original game, there are no surprises here. The game is essentially the same wonderful Box O'Fun with the following differences: +6671 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 just like un-block me on iphone/android +8846 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Wonderful product. Very well made. 19 month old grandson loves this, his new favorite toy. This drum has the Tom-Tom sound, not like a musical drum set. Goes from loud to soft tones.....grandpa wants him to take drum back to his house next visit.....lol lol.....tons of fun for almost 2 year old. + + +The "Pirate Fluxx" deck is a stand-alone game which has the same basic pros and cons, while being marginally more fun than the basic game. It contains a full deck of cards specific to Pirates, and introduces new concepts along with the new theme. A few key cards of note: +1353 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Ticket to Ride is easy to learn, fairly quick to play. It is a great gateway game from traditional American games into the (to me) more fun world of Euro games. +Let's compare the two in each of the basic categories: +1615 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 1.0 For this much money, I'd expect the legs/arms to be wired. The arms are sewn together - and the legs are unpositionable. There's no way you can pose this elf. He has one position. That's it. + + +5. It's not a collectible card game, mostly. One thing that always turned me off from Magic: The Gathering was the fact that the person who spent the most money, or had a lucky pack could easily over-power everyone else. Star Wars: The Card Game has fixed cards in the Core set and in their expansions. + +5260 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 Our family with 3 boys (11, 9 ,6) likes this game but the 6 year old usually is done before the game is actually over :) It can take a while to play. The scoring is also fairly complex, despite the easy concept. I still like it and recommend it to families, just be aware of the length. +2771 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Perfect for our son +3490 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This such a good game. Luckily it did not bought by WOTC. The screen has all the info you need to run a game without having to turn to the books. +6246 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 This thing is fun. Slow but fun. It climbs everywhere, is water proof (or at least resistant) and has a long battery life. +The one problem with the game is the colored tiles. They are too similar to each other unless you are in bright lights. Green is about the only color that doesnt look like its neighbors in the rainbow. Its something to watch out for, although its not bad enough to ruin the game. +820 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Fun game - losts of pieces, some strategy needed to win. Not your average board game - but that is what I like. +This other player sets a ten sided die counter to the number one, representing what level of the dungeon you are on. That player then rolls one black die for each level you are on. Level one? He or she rolls once, but if you are on level five, they roll five. There are some slight variations on this (for example there are only seven enemy dice), but that is the general structure found here. Then the game is all about luck and resource management. +3791 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 While intimidating at first, this is the first LCG that really captures the spirit of star wars. Iconic characters, locations, missions, and the Force all combine to make an intricate and strategic game with rather basic win conditions. If you are a star wars fan and enjoy games, this is definitely worth your time. + +4015 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 fun game worth a look +It's good for about 3-4 games before you're moving on to other things. +5072 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Family favorite! Seriously, I love this game. I love the fact that I can beat my husband whenever we play alone! hahahahahahaha! +7882 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 my daughter loves these! they are still a bit big for her, since she's just barely 6 months old, but she enjoys gnawing on them and knocking them down. +==================================================== +Again, this game is pretty amazing. There's a decent learning curve but don't get discouraged. After the first game it will all make sense. I can't recommend this game enough. +Not much to say other than wow . <3 +9840 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this fun tunnel for play with my three dogs: a lab mix, a boston terrier, and a bluetick coonhound. Within a few minutes, using treats and applause they were all going through the tunnel enjoying themselves immensely. They range in age from almost one year to 7 years, and from about 65 pounds to barely 20 pounds. It's perfect for all of them (although naturally I am not leaving it out all the time or the youngest might chew it to bits.) You can see them on flickr. +9634 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Best tent ever. We bought this for a cruise and it worked great. It was easy to pack and worked great at the beach. Very inexpensive and kept my baby out of the sun. +7332 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 great +Secondly, the pieces and the cavities that the pieces fit in are the EXACT same size, made of the EXACT same plastic, and is an EXACT duplicate of the game board I owned in the 70's, so stop your GEN Y whining! +More importantly, the monster cards are pretty easy to substitute monsters already owned for as well. So your using Giants and don't own the official miniatures? Use the Ettins. Its close enough and they're the right size and quantity. No Lava Beatles? Well you have spiders! The only downfall for this approach is that certain combinations that should be allowed won't be due to not having enough compoenents of the proper size/quantity. +3186 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I purchased three sets of these bricks for my daughter when she was 2. She is now 5, and still plays with them. They are great for fostering imagination. She likes to lay them out and create the boundaries for a "house" or a "store". Sometimes, they are the fence around a farm and all her animals go inside. Sometimes we just stack them as high as we can and have fun knocking them down. +484 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Can't wait to play this! Brand new. We played it at a friend's house and stretched our minds and laughed a lot. +9161 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 One of the more interactive toys + +2776 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I bought this plush Pete to go with the book, my grandkids love him. + +59 Toys_and_Games_5 NEG 2.0 Cute idea, and the basic steps make sense are are easy to follow if a parent works with the kid. I gave a low review because although my child was excited to take part in this, they get bored when you are doing the work ( trust me you will have to, my kid is in first grade) and the glue provided SUCKS. It's basically Elmers glue and it's just not enough to keep everything together. I can't keep the ears or anything to dry and stay on without falling off. I would recommend hot glue. + +(3) Torkil Mux, a level 3 unique pilot that costs 19 points whose special ability reads, At the end of the Activation phase, choose 1 enemy ship at Range 12. Until the end of the Combat phase, treat that ships pilot skill value as 0. +2100 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 What a great idea this is to keep little kids behaving before Santa arrives, it works for my two grandkids who know that the elf reports back to santa if they are bad. They make it a game to find him in the morning in his new spot. This is an excellent purchase and am so happy with it. +2628 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 We have a daughter who loves to draw, write letters, and just be creative! We got this for her birthday and at first she seemed hesitant to try it out since she was excited about some of her other gifts, but one day she sat down to give it a go and she kept commenting, "This is so much fun!". She got more and more excited each time she turned the page and saw more ideas to try :) It was a total hit! +2247 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Christopher Pop-In-Kins is the elf to get! He is cute and not creepy like the other elves. The wires in his arms and legs make it easy for him to hang on to that shelf or light fixture. We didn't follow the story, kept it more like the creepy elf story. I wish there were clothes like the creepy elf has. I have made a little outfit for him much to my daughter's delight. Even found a knitted winter hat that will fit over that giant stocking. +1174 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 Very fun and challenging game! I really like that you can only do one action per turn and it speeds up the game. Games really only do last 30-45 minutes once you understand the rules. +This game has a small learning curve, but once you play through an entire game, most of the mechanics will be easily remembered for future play. The game map is quite large - made up of two separate fold-out cardboard sheets that are laid out side-by-side. As such, you will need a decently-sized gaming surface to play the game on. A small cardboard table isn't going to cut it! +7043 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 4 year old Nephew loves this! success + +This is a fun game that fans of racing will especially enjoy! Highly recommended! I will add more comments to my review after I have had the opportunity to try out the street racing portion of the game. +6058 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 4.0 I wish I had more gamer friends to play this more. This appears to be a simple roll the dice and move your mice board game, but there's a bit more to it than that. Don't get me wrong -- it certainly isn't a deep or heavy board game as far as strategy goes. You do have to use your special moves, brakes, and other various moves that may cause some damage to your car in order to move ahead just at the right time. +In this game you take on the persona of one of the characters provided and attempt to rise in power until you obtain the Crown of Command and rule the land. In between there are battles with monsters and freak incidents that can change the way the game plays out. You never know how you or the game will be affected when you pick a card. +8592 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 My five year old son has recently gotten in to games. His father and I are both big on table top games and he inherited it. He's great at games like chess, Forbidden Island, mancala and even DnD. This isn't his most challenging game, but it's fast-paced, energetic and supports good math skills. Recommended for EVERY family. +The game features an innovative time-line movement scheme in which everything a player does costs time, the player can decide how much in most cases, and after the player has fixed the engines or put out a fire or pumped a flooded room out (etc) the time is accounted for and Bad Stuff happens - like more fires breaking out, rooms flooding, hatches jamming, engines quitting, reactors overheating or missiles announcing their intention to launch in ten minutes unless someone does something about it. This means that players precipitate trouble for everyone but mostly whoever comes after them in the move scheme (though in my first game someone managed to re-flood a room they'd just pumped out and drowned as a result). The last person on the timeline is always the first to move, so everyone sort of keeps up with each other on the clock as it were. It looks strange but works well and there's a tactical element to using one's move intelligently. +If the words are acceptable, than that player is the WINNER. +5720 Toys_and_Games_5 POS 5.0 I am actually using this game in my counseling group with younger students to help them with their rigidness and dealing with the unexpected. The students love it and it has been great in getting them to be more flexible with their thinking. We play it with teams which makes it a little bit easier for them to understand and speeds up playing time. I play as my own team so I am able to have a little bit of control in changing things up. With your immature students expect them to point out that FLUXX sounds an awful like a certain four letter word they can't say. Actually, I thought the same thing when I first came across the game. The students love the pirate theme idea. We use a toy parrot to set in front of them if they get the captain card because, then we don't have to worry about head lice with a hat. The students really get a kick out of having me call them the captain. Their favorite card is the talk like a pirate card, because I have the worst pirate accent. +The game lends easy to advanced players who want to implement the advanced rule set that want to make the game far more complicated and even more exciting.
