What is it?
Well, Dominoes has already been a popular game in my house, my son absolutely loves it and also likes winning and funny consequences, i.e. pick up 5 cards, now he has more than you!
SO this is an evolution of Dominoes PLUS a card game I used to play in school called Blackjack, not the 21 or bust game, but a game using the face cards as "pick up 2" or "miss a go"etc. This game basically mashes both concepts together AND works really well!
What I thought
The cards themselves - well there's 128 of them so ALL your mates can play, it is REALLY good fun playing in a large group (you can actually play with up to 10 people!)
The head to head 2 player game is maybe a little long as there's so many "doing" cards, however as you have 2 decks of cards to play with, it would be easy to just swap in some of the non"doing" cards and play with those..
I especially enjoyed the "play again" cards, as essentially you can get rid of ALL your cards in just a few goes! suffice to say my son did NOT like it when that happend!
The Verdict
Definitely get this if you're going on holiday with the family, my son is 6 and understood the actions really well and caught on quick as to how to play, a really good way of getting your kids to think! Would also work well at parties and family get-togethers like Christmas! (GOOD STOCKING FILLER TOO!!)
Get yourself a copy of this great new game from Amazon! RRP is £11.50
