Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The curse of the Ruby Rhino dates back to the 16th century when King Maximus Gluttonus IV stole the jewel from the tomb of the great Pharaoh And away in a desperate attempt to find a belated anniversary gift for his wife, Queen Beatrice. Little did the king know that the Pharaoh placed a curse on the rhino so that anyone who took it would have all of their riches turned into worthless counterfeits. Disgraced by the curse, and abandoned by the queen, the penniless king eventually buried the Ruby Rhino along with his fake fortune in a secret cavern that was recently unearthed by brave adventurers. Little did they know that there is a simple way to break the curse.

My 5 year old seemed to like this game a little but I thought it was really boring. It's all chance with no skill or strategy involved. Frankly, it's just not that exciting and we don't really play it much at all.

I work for a daycare with children ages 6-12. This was a good game. Not too hard to learn. Not too long to play. Gives some practice in addition. The only thing that would improve the game is if the coins would be metal instead of cardboard. Also more than 20 coins would be good as sometimes you are supposed to get a coin and the chest is empty so you get nothing. The one ear broke off the plastic rhino after one week.
I would recommend the game because it is fun. Gamewright games are always a good bet.

A great game, that younger friends like to play. A game takes about 10-20 minutes and they will usually play a game or two at a time. I would highly recommend this game for this age group (5-7 year olds).
