AMIGO AMI20014 Playin' Possum Review

The idea of the game is simple and clear. It's fine for casual play, but the first round can quickly become the last, and if you're trying to play with just two people it's very limited. Try playing it with kids and their spirits will break quickly when they get kicked out in the first round. Also, the cards are beautiful and the trash can is very funny. The latter doesn't close very well, but my kids were already betting on it when (or as soon as) the game fell out of favor. In fact, they were

I ordered Playin' Possum to add to our collection of games to play with 6 and 8 year olds and many older grandchildren. I have to admit that the first thing that caught my eye was the packaging.

It's true I always knew when they were trying to steal! We tried it again at a dinner party and everyone loved it. Children from 6 years, teenagers, grandparents played together. It's a…

In the end I liked this game more than I expected. I'm balancing at 4 stars but after checking my own rating and seeing how good it was for kids I have to bump it back up to 5 stars. I played this game with my 9 and 11 year old boys. The rules were a bit confusing for the first two rounds, but then things moved pretty quickly. The rules are pretty simple and I would compare them to a slightly more complex deck of rock, paper, scissors. You will receive 3 cards. You can accuse someone of…
