RavensburgerGarden Heist Fun Family Board Game for Kids and Adults Age 6 Years Up - New 2024

This is a fun game which is very easy to play so great for younger kids, and age doesn't factor into how well you play - its more about the careful placement of the Racoons. The house and other board pieces are made of thick cardboard, and everything fixes into place well. A small thinner cardboard flap is used as the window, a spare has been included as this is the one piece which will get more wear and tear being lifted on every go.The game is simple in that you slowly move towards the trash can, but being quick when the farmer (person in the house) shouts 3,2,1, get ready. They then lift the flap and see if they can guess a single location - get it right they win a point and the racoon goes back to the start, get it wrong and the racoon wins a point. In this game even the farmer gets points and can win the game. Some additional difficulty in that when you are behind a yellow place you have to make a munching sound and therefore give the guesser a clue, this does make it easy for the guesser depending on how long the games been playing and could always not do this to make it difficult. The hiding places are not fixed to the board so for the guesser seeing a place that's been moved or knocked can be a giveaway.The game doesn't drag on and feels entertaining, with shorter games so everyone gets a turn to be the farmer.

It’s fun game about being sneaky, so my kids love it.It’s mostly carboard construction so with my lot I can’t see it holding up but it’s not expensive and at least it’s not crammed with plastic.The gameplay is aimed at kids and if they get on board, it’s fun to play with them, but the adults in the house won’t be playing this without the young ‘uns.Not a bad game for not a bad price.

My 6 year old adores this fun game. Easy to set up and easy to follow instructions for everyone. A goood paced game that doesn’t take too long to complete. Pieces are made well whilst being attractive and engaging.

Ravensburger Garden Heist is a fun game based on the Red Light, Green Light game. This is the kind of game the children love so I was intrigued by this board game inspired by it.The idea of the game is to be the person who gets the most points by making it to the house without the gardener noticing. This sounds easy but there are some obstacles to make it a bit trickier.The game is made from mostly a thick card which I like as it's strength means it should last many games. The pieces all slot together easily and once you've got the hang of it the game is easy to play and doesn't take too long either.Being the gardener is a lot of fun and I like how this player is included through an imaginative use of a cardboard house hideaway. For the other players the hiding raccoons is also enjoyable and the children loved the real feeling of this game when compared to games such as red light, green light.This is such a fun game that we have enjoyed playing, the rules and set up take a little getting used to but after that it's a fun and easy game for a range of ages.

Family fun thats easy to set up and good value for money, kept the kids busy for a few hours

Its a great game. It is a game of hide and seek working your way towards the house finding hiding spaces. You play as racoons. The gardener peeks out the window to try and find the raccoons. Its a good family game which is easy to set up and is fun to play. My kids liked it and everyone wanted another game when we were done playing so it has good replayability.

This is a good game, that’s easy to learn and fun to play. Four stars.

A good family fun game. Can be played by younger children as really easy to pick up.Some set up required in assembling the house and garden, but the pieces are good strong cardboard and fit together easily.The game itself doesn't take too long to play and the kids enjoyed it.
