Product Description
Product Description
An action-packed game of fun for all the family. The aim of the game is simply to be the first to reach the 'Finish' star in the centre of the board; however, along the way players have to perform all sorts of activities, otherwise they have to carry out a forfeit. To make things even more exciting, some of the actions have to be performed within a set time, using the sand timer. And players having to carry out a forfeit won't know what they have to do until they have used the magic decoder to reveal their secret task. Some of the cards will ask the player to 'Make a noise', in which case the player has to sing the song or make the sound shown on the card. 'Who am I' cards mean the player must silently mime an action, person or animal. 'Action!' means they must do as the card tells them before the sand timer runs out, and 'Spin it!' involves performing whatever action the spinner tells them to do. 'Forfeit' involves using the magic decoder to reveal the task and then carrying it out. As well as helping with basic maths and English skills, this game is great fun for children who enjoy being the centre of attention, and may give slightly more shy children the confidence to come out of their shells. Children enjoy the added excitement of the sand timer and the magic decoder, and the bright colours and cheerful illustrations make this game very appealing. Aimed at children aged 5 and over, this game would be particularly good fun for sleepovers. It is suitable for 2 to 4 players, and is made with durable recycled boards.

Great, great family game - one to get everyone involved, even the grown ups! There are different types of activites (mime, song etc) and each person gets to perform - really good fun, not too competetive as everyone is enjoying the turns, as opposed to rushing to the end of the game. Highly recommended for rainy afternoons with the kids - tons of fun.

This is great game for children and adults to play together. My 4 year old is just learning to read so its better to be in teams or if someone is around to help read the cards and activities for her then we play it that way. If not then I read the cards and if she can do the action then she moves 1 space forward. You can adapt it to suit. I highly recommend this game.

This game was recommended to me and I'm really glad I bought it. My two girls (6 and 4) both really enjoy playing it and it's fun for the adults to join in too (unlike some of their other board game which leave me yawning after about five minutes). The format is simple and it's easy to adapt the rules a bit to accommodate the youngest players. Another fab game from Orchard Toys.
