Q: Does USPS benefit from the sale of this game, monetarily? I know they are struggling so if they get some of the profits from the sales, I would love to buy it although I don't know for who just yet. Marci

The game itself is wonderful. However after only playing it a few times things are rubbing off of the game board. Sad since this was a Christmas present for my son.

I think this game could become a standard among children’s games. The components are very cute. Player colors are pastel, pink, yellow, blue and green. The stamper is fun to play with. Real locations are used and some of them are odd, and it ties in with the other game from this company called zillionaires, so there is some continuity with this brand. The game is easy to learn and teach. The rulebook is actually kind of cute. However, the game also has some aspects where players can steal things from other players and so some people may not enjoy that as much but hopefully this may be a learning tool to help them learn to be able to accept that they aren’t always in control of things.

I thought it would be fun to gift this to my uncle who is a mailman, and he absolutely loved it. We spent a lot of time chuckling over the cute box and goals of the game. The instructions seem a bit involved so it may take a bit of time to get the hang of the game, but it seems fun.

While the instructions take a few minutes to digest, the gameplay is quite simple! This reminds me a lot of the ticket to ride games with added steps, which was so fun! I love stamping all of the completed tasks and the pieces are good quality. I definitely recommend this and don’t be scared off by the instructions. Once you understand it, it’s very very simple. I would recommend playing with adults before younger kids so you can play through the rules. 10/10 recommend!

Instant classic

Al - 9 months ago, Verified purchaser
I got this on a whim for family game night and it has become an instant classic in our family. My mom bought two more copies to give as gifts. The game is reasonably fast-paced, has a good amount of strategy, and doesn’t take too long. The learning curve is not too steep. I personally prefer playing with two people, since you get more play time each and the board gets less crowded. However, it’s still fun with more people. The board has a lovely look and the stamper is so fun to use. The location names are super fun too. I would recommend this in a heartbeat.

A fun alternative to Ticket to Ride!

TheIllusiveMan21 - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
I really like this game and had fun playing with just two people. It is simple, but has depth to it. The games are medium length, and are great as an end to the night, or ice breaker type game to keep it casual. I would equate it to ticket to ride, one of my favorite games! I think it would be better with 4 people but again had fun with 2!

Terrible at 2 players

3 out of 5 stars
calorie83 - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
The game is not balanced well in its current state to play at 2 or 3 players. It is completely broken at the 2 player count. The problem is that the deck is the same size at all player counts and is the game end trigger. It is too easy for both players to complete their sheets by the end of the game so long as the right deliveries come up, thus little strategy involved. They are currently playtesting different deck setups for 2 and 3 players for the next edition, but until then it only works well at 4 player count and probably ok at 3 player count. The gameplay itself is great if it did not last so long at lower player counts. Components are great too.

Wonderful family game. Short duration, many modes of travel, and just exciting. Problems hard to initially play until you watch a Youtube of how to play. The mailboxes colors are hard to figure out because they all look the same.

Best game for USPS fan

Christine - 1 year ago
To be fair, I'm a big fan of the post office to begin with. I loved this game from the time I saw it to the end. There are many fun surprises, like the puns on the postcards, hilarious real town names, the mail collection box stamp, and fun facts about how mail is delivered. I'd recommend playing with more than 2 people, as we quickly maxed out our delivery slips.
