Accessories: Editorial Review: Product Description: For 2 or more players Go hog wild with the pig-tastic game, Pass the Pigs. Players attempt to rack up points by rolling the pig dice - but if they're not careful they might 'Pig Out' and lose all their points. Pass the Pigs is the sizzlin' fun, shakin' bacon game! Editorial Review: How's your tolerance for puns? You'll need some for Pass the Pigs, a simple game of chance built around a pig theme. Instead of dice, you roll two cute pink piglets, and you gain or lose points depending on how the critters land. For example, if both land on all fours, called a "double trotter," you get 20 points; if they land lying opposite each other, called a "Pig Out," you gain no points and cede your turn. There are a number of other rules as well as a variation called "Hog Call." This would be a good travel game (the pigs, instructions, and scoring pad fit in a small, tidy box) or a fine present for someone who's, well, into pigs! --Elisa Murray Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A fun and unusual gameThe game was fun and the case makes it easy to carry around. I'm not sure how original you can say the game is since it's like dice but I think it's a great spin on a classic Rating:  - Keeping Child OccupiedI recently took a trip with my 7 year old nephew and while waiting for a delayed flight this game was handy. Small enough to fit in a mom's purse to take to long doctor visits, etc. Rating:  - GO WEST! HAVE FUN!This game is a change from the usual board games, Monopoly, Sorry, etc. It is both fun and educational. You join Lewis & Clark in exploring the unknown. The goals: map the rivers, make friends with natives, open the West to trade, and look for a Northwest Passage (an easy water route from coast to coast). I purchased this as a gift the receipent loves it and plays with it often. Rating: - Great Game, Perhaps Slightly OverratedI bought this based on the dozens of glowing reviews here on Amazon, the wide age range (easy enough for my 7 year old), and the low purchase price (less than $10). The pigs are adorable and the self containing hard plastic packaging is much more durable than the cardboard boxes most games come with. I am sure this will accompany us on trips to the beach. That said, the game gets very repetitive fast. And by fast, I mean in the first 30 minutes of total game play. There ...

The whole purpose of the game is when you roll the pigs you get points based on how they land. With this new set the pigs often landed in a position that was somewhere in between laying on their side and laying on their back. It appeared as if the tail was made wrong. The final landing position of the pigs means everything in the game and if you can't determine ... Read More |
