The experts of creating *super* board games have done it again! Your family will love helping the Incredibles Save the Day!
Wonder Forge has released a brand new game to coincide with the latest Disney Pixar animation, INCREDIBLES 2. The Incredible Save the Day board game is exciting and fun for the whole family. Recommended for ages 6 and up, and suitable for up to 4 players, this game allows moms, dads, and kids to work together and team up to protect the city.
“Trouble is erupting across Metroville, but The Incredibles can save the day! Work together to stop the crimes before it’s too late! As the alarm goes out across the city, tiles are flipped over in the game board, revealing new problems and even changing the game board paths. Each player has a unique power, so strategize who will take on each challenge. If you can defeat the villains and save the citizens before time runs out, you’ll be the heroes of the city!”
THE GAME
The Incredibles Save the Day game includes a sturdy, foldable game board; four character movers (with bases)— Mr. Incredible, Mrs. Incredible (Elastigirl), Violet, and Dash; four power dice unique for each character; a movement die; a Jack-Jack die, 30 problem cards; five rubble markers; and game instructions.
THE GOAL
Metroville is in trouble! A variety of crimes and problems are popping up all over the city. The Supers have been called in to help, but Jack-Jack keeps teleporting. Your goal is to save Jack-Jack and resolve the problems before all the problems go off the track.
DEVELOPS CRITICAL SKILLS
This game builds problem-solving skills, communication skills, and teamwork. Players must work together, decide who is best suited for each task, and solve problems that arise in the city before it’s too late.
CHARACTERS YOU LOVE
You can play as your favorite member of the Parr family — Mr. Incredible, Mrs. Incredible (Elastigirl), Violet, or Dash. You’ll also get help from Jack-Jack, and some incredible friends like Frozone and Edna Mode. But watch out for the Underminer, Bomb Voyage, and other pesky villains!
My kids and I have been playing this almost non-stop since we got it! The instructions seemed a little complicated at first read, but actual game play is simple. First, have each player choose a character. Then, randomly reveal three problem cards. Next, set off to save the city! And oh yeah, don’t forget to rescue Jack-Jack from wherever he teleported. There are a few more details, but that’s the basics.
Some troubles you may need to resolve include rescuing a cat from a tree, catching a pickpocket thief, or stop a bank robbery. Be careful for road blockages! One complaint my kids had is that the game can sometimes ends quickly. Either you have solved all the problems right away and have drawn no additional crises, or you don’t take care of things quickly enough and the hazards run off the track and you lose. However, the fun and excitement are steady throughout gameplay.
I would definitely recommend this as wholesome family fun. I think younger kids (up to age 10) would be more interested than older kids, but it’s definitely something they can all do together to learn cooperating and problem-solving strategies.
