Toys and Games Reviews of Mall Madness

Customer Review: Really entertaining & great teaching toy!
Summary: 5 Stars

My family is probably way off the demographic map for this game. My 6 yr old son picked out this game much to my husband's dissatisfaction (he wanted him to get a nerf target shooter). Well, we all had a total BLAST playing this game!! My 5 & 6 yr old boys needed a little help with the skill & pragmatics of game playing. They actually caught on very quickly for a game recommended for ages 9 and up. The simple fun and highly entertaining game play also incorporates many teaching opportunities. Players need to strategize, count money/make change, evaluate purchases, keep an eye on their finances, look for bargains, play defensively as well as offensively, and really garner a plan of attack (what mall stores to go to, when and where, based both on proximity and ever changing sales) to optimize their buying power all the while keeping an eye on the other shoppers progress. This totally is not a "froo-froo" girl's only game! A heads-up warning, expect to spend at least 20 minutes simply setting the game up for first time play unless multiple persons assist. My family enjoys playing games together and this is a terrific addition to our collection! The first thing we did the morning after we got the game (we had played it the night before) was play three more rounds of Mall Madness back to back-even before we ate b-fast! I think that is quite the statement to how much fun and enjoyment we got out of playing.

Description of Mall Madness

This Mall talks! Press the button and listen as the electronic voice of the mall takes you on an exciting shopping spree! Come inside and hear all about the giant sales and special bargains! Then join your friends on a wild shopping spree as you rush from store to store! You never know what the Voice of the Mall has "in store" for you! Includes electronic speaker unit, six plastic wall sections, four shopping list cards, Mall Madness money, three sign stands, four "credit" cards, four playing pieces, 42 pegs, game board, parts sheet, label sheet and instructions. Requires 4 "AA" batteries (not included).
Shopping games, no matter when they're introduced to the market, all have the same objective: shop 'til you drop! This one is no different. For detractors, Mall Madness may teach and encourage over-consumption, indebtedness, and a focus on material culture at an early age (9 and up). But for those who care more about pretty ponchos than prickly politics, the game offers the same guilty pleasure that comes from excessive shopping in reality! A mall in miniature, the game's 21 by 30-inch, 3-D board and electronic console includes a food court (for which there are tokens), mall stands, an escalator, and plenty of shops, "mall money" and "cash cards" to go around. Grownups and kids (up to 4 players) who can make six purchases without too many pitfalls win the game--a claim in reality that the stores usually make. Diane Beall
