My boys (6 & 9) and I really love this game. They love saying the silly creature names and learning about animal characteristics through the cards. The only reason I did not give the game 5 stars is that learning and putting the rules together was hard for parents and 6 year old. We adapted the rules to play without the Beserk, and Venom, rules until the 6 year old and adults got the hang of it. It would also be helpful to see a video of how to play the game so my kids could figure it out on their own.
We love this game!My 8 and 5 year old sons really enjoy this game. I do as well. It has a simple concept. There is no huge setup, just a stack of cards. They love making the different creatures and planning out the different points the different creatures add up to. There is usually quite a bit of laughter as we make all sorts of bizarre and fun animals.It is a really great mix of easy, simple fun, and beginning some game strategy. While there is certainly luck involved in the cards you draw, there is definitely strategy that can be put into play, which I really appreciate in a kids' game.The informational sentence that forms on the bottoms of the cards are fun, although sometimes they don't quite make sense. I feel like those might have been able to a little better, but really doesn't take away from the fun of the game.
I love playing this with my kids! They have a ball fighting monsters and have come leaps and bounds when it comes to quickly adding and subtracting. This is the perfect balance of learning and fun. You won't be disappointed
A ton of fun! played it with my 7 year old niece and son, and my 10 and 16 year old daughters. After we played, my daughters asked if we could play later - without the little ones. LOL. It was a lot of fun reading the mixed up descriptions and selecting parts to make the silliest sounding creature. Good addition practice, we all had fun.
Played this with the family during our Christmas celebration. It took a while before all of us adults were clear on the directions, but once we started to play we enjoyed ourselves. I suspect the next time we play, we'll use all the information on the cards along with the extra "wild card" ones. It was just a little too overwhelming for several adults who were exhausted. (My 8-year-old grandson probably would have beaten us all if he had been playing!)
This is a cute, fun and accessible card game for many ages. I've noticed that the original game did not have the special "BERSERK" action cards, and this is reflected in the fact that the FAQ doesn't adequately cover what to do in certain scenarios. Be prepared to either remove these cards or come up with house rules. Otherwise a very fun quick game that is a nice addition to our collection.
My kids (girl age 8, boy age 6) begged for this game after playing it with friends. Not only do they like creating outrageous monsters (ahem...creatures), but they really have to use their brains to play. They need to add up points with each turn to see whose creature wins, and they have to read their silly creature's name and attributes. Even though my 6 year old is still learning to read and add, he can easily play with the help of his sister - and I see it really challenging his mind and encouraging him to read and add. It's is one of those games they can play themselves or adults can enjoy, too.
I was looking forward to playing this game since it won the approval of kids in a magazine. The game is worth some giggles at the names and appearance of your made-up animals, but it seems they could've made this game far less complicated with less rules. Plan time ahead to read the rules to the game otherwise your kids will lose interest before the game even starts. This is supposed to be a child's game so why so many rules???! Trying to sit with a 5, 8, and 10 year old who are anxious to play the new game and you have to spend 10 minutes reading the instructions on how to play is pretty ridiculous. We've only played this a couple times. It's a fun game, although we adapted some things to make the game go a bit quicker.
