John Adams - IDEAL - Gooey Louie Boardgame Review!

What is it?

It's a fun action game where the aim is to pick the most bogies out of Louie's nose with making his head explode!

It includes a load of various sized rubbery boogers, which is weird as I was expecting to get ones which are more stretchy and sticky than they actually are. Probably a good thing to as they would all clump together (more like bogies, but difficult to play with!). The rules are so simple!: Each player takes a turn at picking bogies, being careful not to pick the black 'extra turn', or the bogey attached to Louie's brain (which makes his eyes and brain pop out!)

Just a few design flaws though, which are not massively important but can be a little annoying; Sometimes, because of shoving the bogies back into his head, they can occasionally get stuck down the back of his head inside (you just need to shake Louie around a bit to get them out!)

Also, it may have just been our game, but the bit that connected the base to Louie's head wasn't too great so I had to hold him in place; To be honest though, this is a must anyway because of excited fingers!


What the boy thought!

My son loved this game! (Almost as much as picking his own nose!! (this is a joke, he's not that gross!)) he just loved poking around in Louie's nose, and for some reason always wanting to pull out the black bogey (which means you need to 'pick' another one!). 

I'm not sure if there's a game he's not good at though, as I got my butt whipped! SEVERAL times..my son just has too much luck!


The Verdict!

We both enjoyed playing this game! Its a great concept and a great design, very simple rules so perfect for the age range.

Never before has such a gross game, been so much fun! Finger Pickin' Good!!

For 2+ Players from age 5+, RRP: £22.99
