I bought this about a month ago to give my son something to do with his girlfriend besides just sitting there holding hands texting each other on the love seat.  They did play with it a bit, but much more preferred texting each other on the love seat.  However, the time you could get them away from the loveseat, the game created a ton of giggles.  There's just something fun about having all the magnets suddenly jump together, especially if you aren't the one who happens to be playing their turn at that time.

Then my grandson was here and he loved it just as much (he's my hubby's and is same age as my son actually - 13).  It definitely was one of his "have to play this again" games.

Then my best friend came back to visit.  She went through a heart-breaking divorce earlier this year and was bringing her son for his first long visit with his father, so her mood was really low.  When I couldn't think of anything else, I brought out Yikerz! and began to play it with her.  No matter how bad she might have felt, she couldn't help but giggle as all of the magnets suddenly clumped together and/or if her attempts to manipulate the various magnetic fields together to keep things "apart" suddenly collapsed and failed.  Anyhow - as a parting gift and something to keep her mind off of things when they got too hard, I sent away my Yikerz! game with her; you can play it solitaire and I can always buy another one.

It seems incredibly simple looking at it, but you pretty quickly realize that you can make it pretty difficult by rearranging the four triangles so there is less open space between them and you have to put the magnets together.  Play is really simple.  You divide up the magnets equally, arrange the triangles that come with it into a shape, and then take turns putting the magnets on, having to take all the magnets that clump together in your turn.  Magnets must stay on the little triangles and not clump.  Whoever runs out of magnets first wins!

Simple, right?

Well, not so simple, but a ton of fun.  Kind of fascinating to enjoy it so much.  It also tends to suddenly take up a lot of time - you keep needing a rematch because parts of it just seem like luck - you look up and a half hour or more has gone by.

Definitely a great choice - I'd recommend it for a bright eight-year-old, but probably it would frustrate them if they were playing against someone who understood magnetism a bit better.  Children of all ages can play this as long as they're old enough to not eat the magnets or lose them - if you're playing with much younger children, try to explain how the magnets work as you go; it will teach them some basic principles of magnetism as well as help them figure out how to match you every time!

This is a perfect game for after dinner or having friends at home and break the ice, make them have an unforgettable time.
I have given this as a gift to several friends and all of them have come back with great comments.
Love the way the questions keep coming in a more funnier way.
Definitively will recommend it.

Fun, outrageous and addictive, this is a perfect beach read.  The author is super witty and over the top but I enjoyed her crazy stories immensely.

With Ice Hunt, James Rollins creates a wonderfully fast paced and thrilling story that will once again leave you very satisfied at the end.  Matthew Pike, is a wonderful character that we meet at the start of the novel.  From the opening pages we are thrown into a world of ice and snow, where the thrills are fast and furious.
Ice Hunt is full of the twists and turns that Rollins fans have come to expect.  Ice Station Grendel is described in great detail, and it feels like you are there with the characters.  Ice Hunt has the mix of fantasy as well as reality that makes Rollins books so much fun.
Like all of Rollins' previous works, a scientific phenomenon has been discovered in some remote place.  This time however there are a couple of differences, first and foremost the setting is not the steamy hot rain forest, or jungle, rather the Polar Ice Cap.  Second, there is this element of political involvement in this book, seeing that Ice Station Grendel is a Russian Ice Station and it is discovered by Americans.  But like the other Rollins novels, Ice Hunt delivers a fun and entertaining story that will keep the pages turning.
From the opening chapter to the end of this book, Rollins grabs hold of the reader and takes you on a roller coaster of twists and turns that you don't expect.  A must read for fans of Rollins, and a great way for soon to be fans to start reading one of the best writers around today!  I highly recommend Ice Hunt, you will not be disappointed.

Great game for the family or a group of friends. Action cards, such as "take a pulse!"....can you do it?  Quick!  Repeat!  It's a simple game and the laughs are abundant!  I played with my own family and then brought it to school on snowy day for the kids to play!  They were ages 6-10 and they had a blast!  Needless to say, I didn't leave the game there, but will share again during our next blizzard!

The most fun I've had in a long time.  Casual game with something for everyone, you'll be trying to complete the main mission but easily side tracked when all of the sudden you are being insulted by a brave but stupid Orc.  They go as far as other orcs rooting for the captain that insulted you.  Well thought out and attentive to detail made this a great buy.

I got this game for Christmas and I have not put it down. Very very fun. You never get bored cause you can always choose to play a new character. I like Iceman for example since he can freeze enemies in their tracks. Then the rest of the team beats the @#$% out of him. Storm can cause hurricanes that get more powerful if you twirl the analog stick. Spiderman, the Thing, Ms. Marvel, Iron Man, the list goes on and on. They all make little comments throughout the game too, very funny.

Aside from the huge adventure and numerous very impressive cut scenes, there are so many unlockables. The coolest is the TRAINING SIMULATOR. While you play you will find various COMIC MISSIONs. They let you play as a single character. i.e. you no longer get 4 characters, only 1 superhero for a specific mission that relates to their comic world.

I have spent the last hour trying to complete the solo Captain America mission and even though I can diffuse the 3 bombs in time, I can't stop the nuclear bomb from launching. So after 3 attempts I tried the Wolverine solo mission, made it to the end but I couldn't protect the 6 cannisters of Omega base!!! I have only unlocked 3 comic missions of 40. I can't believe it. I will be playing this game for months.

What else can I say, there is so so so much to do in this game including ONLINE. You can play the game with random people online or adhoc. Very impressive game all around. I would highly recommend it to everyone.

P.S. I played the XMEN games on my xbox and never really got into them. But I really like this game.

Good stuff.

We played this game after a christmas dinner. There were guests at the party we never met before. It was a great ice breaker and you got to learn and identify people personality really fast. I am addicted to this game now :)

this little horror/action/ comedy(yes it really is all those things ) is just so much fun you can't help but like it. the monster is a cheesey blast,the action is well done, and the comedy is very funny is a sick way.

  not much sense as a cruise ship about to be highjacked is attacked by "sea monsters" from the deep. like i said this is just to much fun to take seriously and if you let it you can get sweapted away with it.

I bought this for my 17 year old and I to play...it just looked so fun I couldn't resist.
I have not been disappointed!  It is so much fun.  Lots of physical activity involved and this was what I was after since my child is slim but total bookworm.  We have been confined to playing inside as we are buried in snow; however I cant wait til spring to go out and play.
I plan on buying this for some other friends with younger children.

Game isn't cleared yet, but I'm having a blast. The intensity gauge adds a nice risk/reward, the storyline is great, and the game manages to really capture your imagination, although they do fudge mythology a bit for the purpose of the story. ...Then again, most games fudge it much worse. So overall, it's a fun experience.

I purchased this game along with the Wii console & the Wii Fit for Christmas.  This game is loads of fun.  We played it w/ friends over the weekend and the ski races, slolum, moguls are all alot of fun especially when playing with a group of people.  The harder the level on the races the more fun we had.  This probably isn't a game I'd play by myself but it was great fun when playing with 4 people.  Not enough interaction with the Fit -- this was the only down side.  Also, when  using the Fit only 1 can play/race at a time -- you can't even register 2 skiiers at all (I thought you'd atleast be able to take turns -- no such luck you have to finish your race, go back out and register the next player).  Even still, it's more fun without the Fit anyway.
