Gameplay Experience
Pros:
"Love this game. We used it on a cross country road trip."
"It was perfect !!! My son loved it ! We had so much fun looking for different things !"
"This game keeps the kids engaged during those long car trips."
"Great collaborative car game that gets the kids into checking-out their surroundings."
"It even sparked the kids imagination to make up their own cards!"
"You can play it over and over because you never know which cards you'll draw."
"These were a big hit on our recent road trip! Lots of variety and unique things to find made it really fun."
Cons:
"Ended up being messy in the car. Held kids (6 & 10) attention for 20 min once."
"There were very few cards we could play on highway."
"Hard to play in the highway though since there aren’t many residential items on the freeway."
"A just ok travel game for the car... Could be more engaging and entertaining."
"Not as entertaining as I was hoping. Some cars are way too easy, some are impossibly hard."
"Eh. Not enough variety, but will work for about four hours of one trip. Maybe two, but the novelty wears off fairly quickly."
"the only weird thing is, when you are on a road trip driving through the middle of nowhere... you're probably not going to see a fire hydrant or stoplight."
Game Design and Quality
Pros:
"The game itself was made of durable, high-quality paper."
"The cards are well made, and provide an illustration for kids that can’t read that well."
"Cards are sturdy enough to survive a preschooler handling them."
"Very well made cards and larger than normal playing cards."
"The cards themselves are good quality and stand up to many uses."
"The directions were easy to understand- with great pictures on the cards."
"They are great quality and very similar to regular playing cards only larger."
Cons:
"Of course, like every card game on the planet, the box ripped the first time I opened it and it's now store in a plastic ziploc bag but that's par for the course, I guess."
"The only card we consistently couldn’t do was to find a person with red/orange hair."
"the concept of this game is great.... but there are way too few cards with things that can be found on the interstate."
"It is best to use it while in town and such because some of the items are not found during parts of the drive while out in the middle of nowhere lol."
"Not really geared for highway travel, but might work better for more local roads."
"I wish there were more cards for common cross country things."
"One drawback of the game is that many of the objects (eg: person walking a dog) may be difficult to find on long highway trips."
Family and Age Inclusiveness
Pros:
"Personally used it with Ages 3-adult."
"My four year old loves that she can play too! No need to know how to read, the pictures are explain it all."
"We all enjoyed playing this game during our last road trip. My 5 years old could play easily."
"Even my mom got into the game and made the car ride a blast!"
"My pre-readers were able to join in the fun because of the pictures."
"Great game for all ages- even easy enough for young kids."
"My family absolutely loved this scavenger hunt that we could all participate in while traveling this summer."
