With touches of canasta, rummy, and poker, this game could easily become a Friday-night favorite. The object is to get a “sequence,” meaning a row of five poker-like chips on the game board. The board itself depicts lines of face-up playing cards. Players place their “crowning” chips on top of the card pictures, and can form sequences by using strategy and knowing which Sequence cards to keep or discard. Since forethought, luck, and backup plans are the keys to winning, this game is probably too sophisticated for children under 7 years old. (But young ones can team up with adults.)

This game is one of the most pedantic, boring games I’ve ever played. It requires no skill. The idea is that you have a board with all the cards printed on it. Then you draw real cards from a deck. Then you put a chip on a printed card from one you have in your hand. The first person to get five in a row wins. What sort of strategy is that? You don’t even have to be awake to play this game. But if you have a very precocious 9 month old, they may think it’s fun. But I doubt it.

This game seems to get a lot of attention and praise. Some of my fellow revieweres here have even given it high ratings for educational value.. EDUCATIONAL VALUE?? I guess it helps in pattern and color recognition, and how to correctly count from one to five but this game has about as much educational value as watching old reruns of Leave it to Beaver and about as much strategy as connecting Legos. For good, fun and unique family games, try Carcassone, or Settlers of Catan (unfortunaly, Amazon does not carry the better board games, you have to get them elsewhere)

Sequence is fun for the first few weeks after purchasing it, but after a while it becomes boring. It is a very simple game that anyone can understand. Although it does involve a bit of luck, it involves more skill and strategy that people would think.
While the board and chips are strong, the cards are very flimsy. The rules state that you should play until someone gets 3(?) sequences, but I find it much more fun to play until either all the chips are used up or until there are no more cards left. Our family enjoys occasionally pulling out Sequence to play every once in a while.
If you like strategy and want to play this game with young children, this game is great. I find it a bit dull and for anyone looking for a bit more excitement, I recommend that you purchase a different game.
