WIN!! Hurry Up Review and Giveaway(ends 6/9)

We recently got the chance to try a game by Random Line called “Hurry Up!” and we love it! It’s for 2 to 6 players, ages 8 and up. It reminds me a little bit of Yatzee, with trying to roll specific combinations of the dice. However, it is much easier for my 8 and 10 year olds to play because there isn’t as much strategy involved since you are trying to roll a specific combination on the dice in each round.

We had lots of fun playing this game and the kids begged to play another game of it right away.

I liked this game because it is also educational in that you have to write down and add up your scores and on a couple of the levels you have to add up the dice. It also seems to be great for teaching kids to not give up even if they are behind. The person in the lead seems to change frequently, and the upper levels are worth more points and you can win one of those and quickly pass everyone else.

Overall, this is a great game, simple rules, educational, and lots of fun. The box says “It’s Fast and a Blast!” We agree.
