This inexpensive game checks all the boxes. It’s fun, easy to learn, quick to play, and comes in a small, packable box.
Also, it’s fun to play again and again and again. I wouldn’t call it “addicting” per say. I mean, I can stop anytime I want. It’s just ONE more game. What’s the harm in that? My parents will never find out…
Our family played over 70 games of this in six months. I probably lost 50/70 to my seven-year-old because I have a death grip on my losing strategy. “One day it’s gonna work, then you’ll all be sorry.”
Wow. Reading back through this post makes me realize I’d make a terrible gambler. I live far too close to Vegas for such a weakness.
Anywhoooo they sell another variation called “Qwixx Mixx” that I accidentally bought when I tried to buy more score cards. Our family agreed it wasn’t as fun, but maybe worth a few plays for $8.
