Shark Mania Board Game

We are loving this game. Playing is fun and quick, even my little one who is only 4.5 years old is enjoying it. The instructions were easy to follow not only for set up but for instant play. We discovered that pulling the tail out past the bridges gives us enough time to at least start. Staying on task is a good practice for all of us and this game keeps us interacting with not only the game but each other. We cheer each other on, then laugh and giggle when the shark gets each of us. We have found that collecting the coins is hard with the speed that the shark moves, but quickly figured out a way to get coins and not be eliminated. In all honesty, there really is only one downfall that I can find and is that there is only one girl character, although here we all play all the characters and focus on which color do you want to me and not on the "who do you want to be." The game can be adapted to one player, by racing the shark, played by two players, or as a family of four. It is very enjoyable for all of us.

I love this game because it will teach my son to look and think faster. Some games you are not timed on and therefore it gives too much time to think. This game is great because you are forced to think quickly and hurry!
