The Despicable Me Movie is a big family blockbuster
movie this summer. If you haven’t seen
it, it is great fun for the dog days of summer. Whether or not you have seen the movie, this
Ravensburger - Despicable Me Labyrinth
game spells lots of family fun. I tested it out with my 8 year old grandson
and found that it was challenging and engaging.
game spells lots of family fun. I tested it out with my 8 year old grandson
and found that it was challenging and engaging.
You set up the game board randomly placing 33 maze
tiles on the board plus one off the board next to one of arrows. (The board has some set tiles that don't move.) The 24 character cards are dealt face down to
the players. In turn each player chooses
a character card and then uses the “extra” tile to push the maze by one tile
width anywhere there is an arrow. Then
the player moves his piece trying to get to the character on the card he has
drawn. Since the maze shifts on each
turn this can get challenging….but sometimes the shift will give you a clean
shot – or perhaps a circuitous route - to that character. If you like games where the possibility of
winning is always changing you will love this.
And you have to always be adjusting your strategy as the maze is always
changing. The object is to get to all
the characters in your hand first. 2 – 4
players can play.
Ravensburger is well known for puzzles. Now that Wonder Forge has joined Ravensburger they have used both their game and puzzle know-how to create a new kind of challenge with both game playing and puzzle solving skills needed.
The box says it is for ages 7 - 99. But I think most 7 year olds could get
frustrated but the constantly changing gameboard and figuring out the best
strategy. And 99 year olds…..well if
they are patient and still have good eyesight and know what a minion is….
Here’s my grandson after the first game. You can see that he is ready for the challenge to
take me on again.

It is so important to play with and enjoy our grandchildren and board games are a fun way to connect and enjoy each other's company. Thanks for sharing with us at #BloggingGrandmothersLinkParty.
I have many fond memories of playing board games with my family as a child. I may have to revive that tradition. Thanks for linking up at #BloggingGrandmothersLinkParty.
What a fun game. This looks like more fun than playing dinosaurs, which he is in love with right now. But if I can play dinosaurs then he can maybe, perhaps play Despicable Me with me. :) Thanks for sharing at #BloggingGrandmothersLinkParty. I have shared on social media.
