Seems like a great little game. I purchased it for my grandson’s 5th birthday.
Mrs. A. Patrick –
I purchased this game for my 4-year-old son, and it has quickly become one of his favorites, even though he’s not a huge football fan. The game arrived promptly, well-packaged, and in perfect condition.
Inside the box, there are 4 player boards, 4 football pieces with small plastic stands, a dice, and 2 spinners, all made from thick, sturdy cardboard that has held up well after many play sessions.
Each player has a board and a football piece as a counter. Players take turns rolling the dice and moving their pieces forward based on the roll. Landing on a player from your team allows you to move ahead, while landing on an opponent’s player sends you back. If you land on a whistle, you must spin the referee spinner to determine the outcome: a free kick (roll again), yellow card (miss a turn), or red card (go back to the start). The objective is to reach the goal area and attempt a shot using the other spinner, which can either land on the goalkeeper (saved) or an empty space (goal scored). Scoring a goal results in winning the game, while being stopped by the goalkeeper sends you back to a designated space marked by a black or white cross.
The game works well with 2, 3, or 4 players. My son enjoys it immensely and gets particularly excited when using the spinners. It’s great for teaching counting, light competitiveness, patience, and turn-taking.
One thing to note is that the duration of the game can vary significantly, ranging from a quick 5 minutes to over half an hour, depending on how often players land on opponents or receive red cards. So, it may not be ideal for a quick play session.
Overall, I would highly recommend this game.
