Toys and Games Reviews of Target Card Game

Customer Review: An incredibly good rummy game
Summary: 5 Stars

The key to winning is to make combination melds that fulfill the requirements of two or more Target cards. If you do this, you claim all of those Target cards at once. Claiming two Target cards isn't too tough, but three or four are hard and claiming all five at once is extremely difficult (impossible?). Of course, while you're trying to put together a meld to grab 2 or 3 Target cards your opponent often beats you to one or more of them, so you've got to re-aim your hand at some other Target cards.

I was at Origins (a gaming convention) in Columbus where they were holding a Target tournament, and it's interesting to note that *all* of the players were adults - so while this is a family game suitable for all ages, it has its fans among adults too, it's not a "kid's" game per se.

The cards themselves are of a very high quality. The rules are very clear but could use a few more diagrams. The game is rated ages 8 to adult, and this game will really help younger kids to think a little, though it may take a few hands for the youngest of them to really catch on.

All in all, though, this is my probably my favorite game and may become yours, too.
