Toys and Games Reviews of Zathura; Adventure is Waiting
Customer Review: Truly Worthless Game
Summary: 1 Stars
One of the most worthless and poorly-thought-out games I have ever had the extreme displeasure to play. The gameboard is warped and doesn't sit flat, so the pieces slides around and players lose their places. The card "ejector" doesn't work, period. We finally took the cards out and made a draw pile on the table, which pretty much wiped out the only possibly novel aspect of the game. My kids were bored silly, even though they thoroughly enjoyed the movie of the same name. Don't waste your time or money.Customer Review: Very disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
The rules are vague at best, and nonexistent at worst. A lot of the gameplay is frustratingly left open to interpretation. The card dispensing console works maybe one in four times, and the spinner provided instead of a die has a fun habit of stopping squarely between any two numbers. I'm glad I only paid a clearance price for Zathura. I'm only rating the fun level at two stars because of the fun we had mocking the game. Otherwise it would be firmly at one.
At least the box art is cool.
Customer Review: disappointed
Summary: 3 Stars
We bought 2 of these games which worked very differently. Because we had read so many negative reviews, we opened and played with one which was to be used as a gift. It worked perfectly and was fun. After gifting that game, we opened and played with the one we had kept for ourselves and had the same frustration that so many reviewers have mentioned--the cards don't pop up. This has made the game so frustrating that our children don't even want to play it.Customer Review: Don't let anyone kid you: this game IS worthless!
Summary: 1 Stars
I support the comments that others make: this game is so poorly designed, it is laughable. I cannot imagine that the designers or writers even sat down to play the game once. Forget trying to follow the directions; they left out many important rules. The board doesn't work, especially the way the pieces fit into it, and what a terrible ending with a spinner that doesn't even work like a spinner. What is up with that? Forget this game.Customer Review: poor quality
Summary: 1 Stars
I great disappointment if you have seen the movie. The cards in the game we have keep getting stuck and you have to constantly open up the back and fix the button to make the cards come out. The overall quality of the game is poor. You have to put the game together everytime you play it and the board gets damaged everytime. My kids ages 3, 6, and 7 still do get some enjoyement out of it, although they get upset everytime it breaks.
