This game is right up your street if you are looking for a great family or friends game night. Packed with fun and fast-paced action, you are guaranteed to have some laughs along the way too. It has a quirky twist on the mechanics and is very lively.
The presentation box is full of bright and bold colours and looks like a hectic and lively game. There is a suction-cup base shaped like a storm cloud. It has two lightning paddles which you hit to send the tornado spinning. This is like no other game and really piques your curiosity.
You will need a clean, flat surface so the suction base can properly grip it. Once you have it in place, it feels very secure, which makes it easy and suitable to use on a table without worrying about it slipping or sliding, especially during play.
The way it works is very easy and very clever. Just load the cow in the centre or into the tornado, then you and your opponent take turns slamming the storm cloud with your paddle, which spins the tornado. Your aim is to out spin your opponent and launch the cow out of the twister. It really is that easy.
The mechanics of the game give exceptional fast, intuitive, and interactive fun. The quicker you launch the cow, the quicker the game ends. The parts have been made very well; they are robust and will stand the test of time, and you will easily be hooked on playing this game time after time. The paddles and plastic pieces are very sturdy and safe for children, with no cheap design elements. For the price, the build quality is very good.
Due to the concept of how quickly the game can be played, along with the fun and laughter, you will definitely want to play this game repeatedly, encouraging friendly competition. Great for kids and family gatherings, and even for adults, whether it is just a get-together for a drink or at a dinner party.
For younger children or anyone with reading difficulties, there are not long, drawn-out rules to learn, making it more appealing to play as it is very easy to teach and understand. Depending on who is playing, you can adjust how slowly or quickly you hit the cloud. This is great for the younger ones or anyone who wants to build up their skill level whilst practising.
The game has been well pitched at aged 6 years and over and whether children or adults, this fast action packed game with fun and laughter will be a hit with anyone who loves a game. The price is worth every penny given the interactive play and all the other fun aspects previously mentioned.
