My two boys received this game as a gift a few days ago, and I was rather happy about that because I was thinking of buying this game for them myself.

Well, it proved to be too much of a logical leap from the simple board games my young boys have played to date to this beginning level strategy game. Your milage may vary on this point, but two aspects of this game that didn't help were:

First, the "Pop-o-matic" takes considerable force to operate. My five year old had to put his full 50lb body weight onto it just to get it to work, and it was difficult for my old son to operate too.

Second, the "have to roll a six to get to start" rule is stupid. You just wait forever to get to even start to play. We changed the rule so you can start with either a six or a one, and that helped a little bit.

Sadly, my kids lost interest after about 10 minutes. So, another unloved game in the game pile. Rating: 3 / 5

As originally designed, this game is awful. Any game where a player can go the entire game just waiting to play needs some help. A player needs to roll a 6 in order to start, and if you never roll a 6, then you’re stuck. We modified the rules so that if another player lands on your peg, you are sent back to the start area, not home. That way you don’t have to wait for a 6 again. This made the game slightly better.
