Gobblet Gobblers (Plastic), Tic Tac Toe Strategy Board Game, Award Winning Kids and Family Friendly Educational Board Game, 2 Players, Ages 5+, by Blue Orange Games

I bought this for my 4 just turned 5, Great Nephew, to play at my house who I was meeting for the second time. The first time we met we played Tic Tac Toe on paper over and over. He was starting to understand the game, so I thought this would be a fun version for us to play next! At first he got upset that my Gobblets would Gobble his and possible block him, but after a day of playing it by the end, he was learning how there are different strategies to the game and different ways to win. Even if he didn't understand the game just yet, he loved using the Gobblets to Gobble to play the game by himself, or making up rules. I'm hoping he will grow into it and have many years to enjoy it. I know I did and I'm 54!

Grands love this challenging game of tic, tac, toe (the game pieces remind them of toes) we play it a lot.

Good game with a fun twist on Tic-Tac-Toe

I love this game, as do my young nieces and nephews, ages ranging from four to ten.Basically, it's tic-tac-toe in 3D, with a twist: once you place your "gobblet" on the board, another, bigger gobblet can land on top of it, gobble it up, and claim the space for your opponent. But... the gobbler itself can be gobbled by an even bigger Gobblet!More strategy required than simple tic-tac-toe, but on a 3x3 board it's simple enough that a 4 or 5 year old can grasp the concept -- and even beat their elders, now and then. And excellent game for building concentration, strategic thinking, and focus -- and the goofy pieces are fun, too.Some older kids (8-10) may find the game a bit to "easy", in which case I recommend its "grown-up" companion, the original "Gobblet":https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Orange-100-Gobblet/dp/B00006L50P/The original has a 4x4 board and more pieces, which ups the strategy level considerably:My only complaint, for which I docked this version one star, is it was not made clear that there are \two\ versions of Gobblet Gobblers. I bought this thinking it was the original wooden set, and instead it's a plastic set. I didn't discover this until I was wrapping it for a birthday present. Everything in the plastic set works fine, and it is a bit cheaper, but it just doesn't have the same "quality feel" of the original wooden version.Wooden version:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001TMXDMK/Otherwise, Blue Orange mostly produces five-star stuff, and I do recommend this game -- in whatever version tickles your fancy.

My four year old loves it. He asks to play it all the time. Very strategic game. I thought it would be too challenging for him. But he can't on quickly and after playing a few times. Figured out the multiple strategies.

Fun game for anyone. Easy to pick up and use right out of the box, adding a little challenge to tic tac toe.

We love this game! I love this game, my son loves this game, everyone who plays it with him loves this game! It is incredibly easy to set up and you could even take it with you in a small bag if needed. It does require a hard surface to play on, but as long as you have that it’s quick to set up! When we first read the directions we were a little bit confused, but after playing the first round we quickly got it. If your child constantly asks you to draw out tik tak toe boards to play over and over again, this is 100% the game for you! Not only is it easy to reset and quick to play many times over, the more you play it, the more strategic you get in your moves and the more fun it becomes! My son is 5 and after a few rounds he started to really understand the concept of strategy and clearly be able to plan out his moves and pay attention to the other player’s moves. So, not only is it fun, it’s educational as well!
