Toys and Games Reviews of Cooperative Game of Consultation Decision Making and Natural Selection, Max
Customer Review: We like this game, too!
Summary: 5 Stars
At first glance it doesn't look very impressive (it seems kind of cheap), but, I have to agree with the other reviewers that this is a great game! My 4.5 and 6.5 year-old girls like this game quite a lot, and I like that they don't really have to compete and with each other (there is enough sibling rivalry in our house already!) They are disappointed when Max catches one of the little creatures, but there is a lesson there and it does not take away from the fact that they like the game.
Description of Cooperative Game of Consultation Decision Making and Natural Selection, Max
Max is a cooperative board game whre the layers help each other and are never 'against' each other enabling youngsters to play with older brothers and sisters without always being beaten. These are great family games. Players must help get all of the little creatures home before Max, the tomcat, catches them. In an exciting way, children learn logic, consultation, and decision making. And they learn to talk about the issue that Max catches those little ones that they like. How do they resolve this issue in their minds and hearts? They talk it over. Includes 12 x 12" board, special dice, 4 movers, 4 cat treats. Top Rating by Canada Toy Testing. For 4 to 7 years old. 1-8 players.This board game doesn't pit players against each other in competition. Instead, all players work cooperatively to get a bird, a chipmunk, and a mouse (collectively known as Little Creatures) safely home before Max the Tomcat catches them and, presumably, eats them! The dice have single spots--either black or green--on each face. Black spots move Max, green spots move the Little Creatures. Players roll the dice and, in consultation with each other, decide which pieces to move in a game-long effort to foil Max. A refreshing twist on more traditional board games, this is a win/win situation for the players. They will undoubtedly always be able to save at least some of the Little Creatures from Max! Children might need help from an adult in separating the cardboard game pieces. The full-color game board is 12 inches square. --Wendy Slotboom
