Mattel Kerplunk® Classic Skill Marble Game, Multi-Coloured, 2-4 Players, Ages 5+, for Birthday/Party Favour

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I remember this game from when I was a kid, so I was excited to play this with the family. I found that the sticks are very flimsy, which made it difficult to slide them through the tube. It took a long time to set up because of this, so by the second go around, I didn't want to set up a third. The tube is a little difficult to turn a quick jerk will loosen some marbles. The kids enjoyed it, but quickly got tired of setting it up themselves. I think if the holes were spaced out just a bit more, and sturdier sticks would make it much more enjoyable. Storage would also be helpful. The box is flimsy, so if you don't have the sticks and marbles contained, they will be coming out of the box.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I remember playing this game as a child and this game still has all the surprise and fun that I remember. The actual structure of the game was very wobbly and seemed to be less well made than the one I had when I was younger. We had problems putting the sticks in the holes - the green sticks especially would slide right back out. Gameplay is quick and suspenseful, so it is easy to play many rounds of the game in a short amount of time. I wasn't sure how to store it after we were done. We disassembled it and put it back in the box.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game is so fun for adults and children! The objective is to get the least amount of marbles in your cup but my kids also wanted to reverse it and see who could get the most marbles. Switching it up allowed them to play longer and keep having fun with it! Set up was not fun. The sticks bend and it was work to get them lined up on the other side and when there were a bunch in already it was tough to push the last ones through. Also, part of the game play is spinning the whole thing to line up with your cup for your turn. The one spinning it gets the marbles if they fall but this doesn't always line up with your cup and that can lead to some arguments of who should get those marbles that fall. Lastly, the biggest issue is the cups arent large enough if you play 2 player. The marbles spill over into the other cups. When we tried to rebox it after we were done it was also very hard to separate the tube to fit in the box. The plastic feels durable but trying to pry it apart didn't feel like a great idea so we ended up leaving it together. I do wish there was a storage pouch or bag for the marbles and straws. Otherwise, this game was a ton of fun and i'm sure it will be included in our future board game nights.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a fun game to play kids! I played with my granddaughter and she loved it. We played 4 times in a row. It is just as fun for adults as well. The more players you have the quicker the game goes. The only negatives I have is the set up and the box. It does take about 5 minutes to get the sticks in. Sometimes if they aren’t in a good spot they can slide out. The box is on the flimsy side and you have to take the tube apart to fit in it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So fun! The game was good quality just like i remember when i was a kid. Was a little tedious to set up and use. Game play was a blast. Easy for my boys to set up themselves. The sticks were a little too bendy sometimes to put in
