My boys received this game as a gift. It was filed away and forgotten for a few months. Wow, sorry Monster Maker...that was no way to treat you! My family loves playing this game together. As a previous reviewer mentioned, luck plays a part, but there is also a lot of strategy involved too. No other age appropriate game we own has fine tuned my boys sense of strategy like this inexpensive and simple card game has. I just love watching their brains work while also having fun. A good buy, for sure.

The illustrations on this game are great. I found this for under $5 at my local Target store. For that price, it is a simple game that the kids enjoy. While there is a little bit of strategy, it is mostly luck. One complaint is that the "cards" are not shaped like cards, but are more square, which makes shuffling them pretty much impossible (for me anyway!). We have one of those cheap, automatic shufflers and it can usually do the trick.
