Editorial Review

Apples to Apples Junior is the young version of the Apples to Apples original game that's been hailed as a national competition winner by Mensa, the high-IQ society. In both versions, players are dealt five red apple cards and try to make the closest match possible to a word on the judge's green apple card. In Apples to Apples Junior, if you're holding a quintet consisting of, for example, Winnie the Pooh, Farms, Swimming, Bumble Bees, and The First Day of School, you play one of the five to match Loud. If the judge selects your card as the best match, you keep the green apple card; if you win four you're king of the orchard. Apples to Apples Junior includes rules for a couple of tasty variations, too. Crabapple play awards the card to the player with the worst match, while Quick Picked Apples rewards speedy card selection by eliminating from consideration the last card played to a green apple card. Fast and easy to learn, Apples to Apples Junior is a bushel and a peck of fun. --Tony Mason

5.0 out of 5 stars Our family's favorite game, June 30, 2004

This is the best game!! My husband and I have as much fun as the children when we play. My son, who is an early reader, could play this at an earlier age than that recommended on the box. When only three of us want to play, we use a stuffed animal for the fourth player; the children think it's a riot to see the answers the animal "gives." (We select a card from the animal's five choices without looking at it, and the children think it's so funny when, for example, the animal chooses "cotton candy" as something that is scary. This game is one of those games that is both educational and REALLY fun to play. I HIGHLY recommend that you buy this game. We have all three versions! (There are two children's versions - one for younger and one for older children, and an adult's version.)

This review is from: Apples to Apples Kids (Toy)

This is an *outstanding* game- it takes seconds to learn, and is endlessly re-playable. Best of all (for us, anyway!) is that it is a game that can really be played in mixed age groups. Even the youngest player (who probably really should be at least 6 & have a pretty good vocabulary)can hold their own, and the adults don't have to keep things 'smooth'- they can let loose and play their hardest: the rotating judge and the luck element ensure that even a kid who is usually a poor ...will have plenty of fun and success. Several reviewers have noted that the game really isn't about winning- even v. competitive types just get into the fast game play. And it is fast- a game can be finished in 20 minutes or less. Our kids play this game over & over- with us as a family, and with their friends and cousins. Tremendous value!

This is a fast-paced game that you will want to play over and over again. The only problem with it is that you need at least 4 people to play, but that does make it good for family gatherings. It is fun, and funny, and appealing to all ages.
