Toys and Games Reviews of Disney Magic Kingdom Game
Customer Review: A wonderful game
Summary: 5 Stars
This game is great for kids and adults of any age. We bought this game for our family so that my husband and I could play with our 4 1/2 yr old. The object is to start at the main entrance and go to each of the five "lands" of the park and "ride" one particular attraction in each, then make your way back to the main entrance. Whoever does this the fastest wins, so of course you will be trying to send others off their course. My daughter has very little problems with this game, we just remind her that she has to do everything "fast", so she can plan which way to go first. It teaches strategy, you need to be able to look at your cards (attractions) and plan your course of action. It also teaches how to rethink that plan when somebody sends you someplace else on the board that may not be near your attractions. As for the autograph cards, they are something that you want, but you don't want to let anyone else get, that is why the mickey and donald pieces are moved around. They let you stop yourself from being sent someplace by another player. If you have a card and another player lands on the mickey and donald pieces, they can take it from you, you don't want that, again it is strategy. Explain to kids what they need to do and ask them where they would go first, then go over the gameboard with them and show them their plan before the game starts. If they are chosing a long plan, than show them a faster one. Sooner or later they will crasp the concept. My daughter gets better everytime we play. She knows to send everyone into the corner of the game to make them lose, she knows to get one of the autograph cards, she understands the difference of the dice(one for moving between railroads and one for moving around the board), and she knows that a one or a two with the star gets her an event card where the other numbers 3-6 don't. The castle in the middle is sleeping beauty's castle, not cinderella's, the board and the card for that attraction says sleeping beauty, not snow white and as with all games and any deck of cards, they will last if care is taken with them. For best visibilty of the whole board it is best to play it sitting on the floor so that you are looking down at it, this also helps the little arms of children move their pieces around the board more easily. The game can be played in a very short time which is also a great feature. My daughter and I can play two to three times during my one year olds naptime. Each time you play it is slightly different because you do go to different attractions each game. I agree with the other reviewers that if you like Disney you would enjoy the game better than somebody who doesn't. This game does span the generations. We played at my daughters birthday party and we had three generations of disney fans playing, they ranged in age from 4 1/2 to 66 and they all enjoyed this game. The board is beautiful and the 3-D pieces and heavy pewter-like mickey and donald pieces are very nicely done. The pawns have different types of families shown on them, some with one parent, some with two and they are done in solid black (as shadows) so they can be any ethnicity. We play it so much that I am buying a second one for my one year old for when she is older and I am giving some as gifts.
Description of Disney Magic Kingdom Game
Visit the Magic Kingdom in your own living room! Maybe you'll get to ride Space Mountain or sail along with the Pirates of the Caribbean! Why not take a trip through Mickey's Country House or a tour of Sleeping Beauty's Castle? With luck you may get an autograph from Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck on the way! Be careful of your opponents -- they may be able to set you back or send you on a wild goose chase around the park. The first player to visit their attractions and make it back to the park entrance wins the game!Disney has always been masterful at two key initiatives: producing memorable children?s entertainment and marketing that same entertainment with overwhelming force. In this promotional board game, players attempt to move a family around a Disney theme park, stopping at various points along the way including Space Mountain, Pirates of the Caribbean, Frontierland, and the Country Bears. Mickey, Donald, Peter Pan, Snow White, the Lion King characters, and various other familiar characters make appearances. As a game, it may deepen a child?s love for their Disney brand friends or simply reinforce the feelings that child already has. The game is also a bit complex and may be too tricky for younger children although if they play on a team with older kids or adults, they should be fine. Parents considering this game should be prepared to answer the question "when can we go to a REAL Disney park?" --Charlie Williams
