Mashin' Max Game

this game is fun... no batteries needed which is nice fir a kids game.. you do not have to run through batteries. it is fun and ,my son loves it... the only complaint i have is that the arms fall off. they seem to fall of more , the more the game is used..... my son does not have a problem with this. he thinks its funny. and he can put them back on himself. overall its a great game except for the arms....

I was happy to get this game because the box was cute enough and caught my attention! When I saw the Max creature I thought it was even cuter then I expected. It was hard to click the arms in place to be honest. You click the feet in place as well. The whole bottom of the game is simple and easy to set up. For the little cardboard game pieces all you have to do is punch them out so that's very simple. You have to know that you will need to detach everything to fit it into the smaller box every time you are done with this game. So think twice if it will upset you to have to put it together every time you play and take it apart to put it in the box. As I stated before the arms can be annoying and hard to click in place. Maybe to solve this problem you can just leave the whole game put together and just store this in a bigger bin to make it easier. Getting to the game part it is pretty fun. You click back Max while clicking the arm up in place to see what piece if any get smashed. Then you move your game pieces according to the number and collect your berry cardboard cut outs. It can be fun not knowing where the hand will land and I think this could be really fun for kids as well! A simple fun game and I am happy about not having to buy batteries. It is up to 3 players and there's three different animals you can choose to be. I think instead of green or blue one side should be red because the dark green and dark blue can mesh easily together. It's still great for that reason alone that each set of animals is unique to tell the difference even easier with those darker colors. When Max smashes down some pieces can fall down because of that but you are putting those pieces on the outer edge anyways so it doesn't matter but just a little annoying. Not too sure if the game will last too long because it is hard enough to put together the arms and it can wear down. You have to always reset his arms in the air and sometimes it's hard to keep them up so that can be a little annoying too. I can see if these little game player pieces don't get set properly each time in the bags they will get lost because the player animals are very small. This goes for the little berry cardboards as well.. tiny so everything needs to be extra kept track of to all be together. I think Max is very cute and the little snail that you pull back for the game is cute as well. All in all pretty good just don't know if it all won't wear down and last that long. I say If you are curious about this little game then try it out! Trying new things is always fun! These are my honest opinions for the free product I was given. I have taken a close up pictures of the game so you can get a better idea. :)
