Review: Fun - This was a very fun game for the entire family. Easy to learn and can play with a few people ok e or teams.
Review: PLEASE HANG ON KITTY - So much challenging fun. The rules are simple and can be adapted for age, skill level, or anything else you want. Games can range from 5 to 30 minutes depending on your skill and steady hand. In most instances it plays very fast. It's like Jenga and twister had a child. I've played it with people from 5-70 years old and they've all loved it. The components are high quality and I expect them to stand up to years of use. Worth every penny.
