Editorial Review

Designed for competitive or cooperative play, Go Away Monster is a delightful game for pre-school-age children. It gives them power over fears they might have as they "rid their rooms" of scary monsters. By providing each of up to four players with his or her own playing board--designed to look like a child's room--the game cunningly avoids potential squabbles over sharing. Players take turns reaching into a "monster bag" and feeling for pieces of furniture needed for their rooms. If they pull out a monster instead, they can hide it or throw it away while shouting "Go away, monster!" Players may help one another or compete to finish their rooms first. --Lee Strucker

This game was a fun way to help our child overcome her night-time fears about monsters when she was 3 and 4. It was easy and fun to play, and helped her talk and laugh about the monsters she was imagining.

The silliest, friendliest monsters inhabit the bedrooms of Go Away Monster! My daughter loves this game, and her friends enjoy playing it together. They cheer whenever a monster is selected and thrown into the monster pit (box). It's great for matching objects, sharing, turn-taking, and lets kids feel in control of any monster fears. Sometimes we let the monsters hide under the bed, or pretend they're part of the wall, but they're always discovered and sent back to the box.

We bought this game for our son for Christmas and he loves it. It has really taught him how to take turns and cooperate with his sister when playing a game. It is also a lot of fun for him. Our son is has mild autism and the visuals of this game make it easy for him to learn and follow.
