Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've never been a big fan of the game "Sorry!" I found it a little boring... maybe it's because I had my own copy of "Trouble" and "Sorry!" seemed like a scaled-down version. (Not really sure, to be honest...) Disney, however, actually made the game fun for me. I'm a 32-year-old Dad and my daughter is 6. She loves it and I really don't mind playing it with her two or three times in a row.
Disney has taken the original rules and developed some special cards that benefit each color. First let me explain a bit about the game itself...
The Blue character plays "The Heroes" -- Buzz Lightyear, Tarzan, Peter Pan, and Hercules.
The Red character is "The Villains" (usually ME) -- Cruella, Hook, Hades, and Malificent.
Yellow, "The Princesses" (usually my daughter) -- Snow White, Cinderella, Ariel, and Toy Story's Jessie (!?!? - even my 6-year old knows -- "Jesse isn't a PRINCESS!")
Green, "Animal Stars" -- Pooh, Dumbo, young Simba, and Bambi
The board looks great, the artwork is fun, and it's all very Disney-esque.
Special cards -- there are certain cards, when you draw them, that allow you to do special things IF you happen to be the matching color on the card. If you are blue and draw a blue three, you have the option of drawing the next three cards and picking the one you want to use. If you draw a green eight and you are green, you have the option of moving TWO characters 8 spaces. A matching 12 in your color will send one of your tokens (the one furthest along) HOME safe. There are more, but hopefully you get the idea.
My daughter is 6, but seems able to grasp all the rules and has great fun teaching her friends to play. As far as the cardboard characters coming of the bases is concerned, we haven't really had that problem. I'm not sure why - maybe we just push them into the bases harder than some of the other folks here that have posted reviews.
Anyway, my advice: a great game for parents to play with the kids. Just remember, you don't HAVE to TRY and win! :)
