    I bought this game because my son is almost 4 and it said that this game was created by a 4 yr old. I think the idea they was good, but was not made that great. There are choices on the dice for different amounts of legs, eyes, and arms… but they don’t have enough cards with all of the different choices available. Make more cards so there are can be more than 1 eyed monster or no armed monster, etc. there are plenty of 4 and 5 legged monsters but not the rest. It’s like they forgot to make sure there are cards for all of the options on the dice. Oh, and the game structure fell apart on the first play.

    Monster Match is great fun for all ages! The monster cards are colorful and imaginative. Much fun is had "rolling" the dice through the monster's mouth - dice are kept from rolling away since the tongue in inside a box.This game really tests your skills of observance, counting and being patient (if you have to wait for the right card). I am to buy more of these for my classroom.

    We played monster match with my 4year old nephew and it was an absolute hit! We played for about 2 hours and had such a fun time. My nephew now knows how to play the game word for word, it challenges his mind to connect the monster cards with the dice he rolled and he loves counting his points at the end! We love it and have no negative things to say. Definitely recommend for the younger kiddos!

    My parents, teenage nephews, and I played this game together for the first time. It got pretty rowdy and we’d recommend that everyone take care of their claws before game play. (Some painful collisions of nails and fingers occurred.) The art is delightful and rolling the dice through the monster’s mouth is fun!

    This game was a hit with our three year old and she loved all the different monsters. It really helps with her counting and makes it fun as well! Totally worth it if you’re on the fence about a child friendly game. It is also quick and easy as added benefit.

    The artwork and setup of the game is adorable! What a great way to practice quick analysis and reflexes. Simple enough for your youngest kids to play, but fun for the whole family. My kids are already thinking about adding in their own monsters to give the game a bit of personalized flavor.

    This has been a really fun game to play as a family or just the kids playing with their friends. Kids between the ages of 7 and 10 can play it totally unsupervised and have a blast. When Mom and Dad get to play, we love it as well

    We played the game with only two people and it was extremely quick. There is an aspect of chance because of the dice but the games tend to pass quickly even when cards couldn’t be selected. Overall entertaining but the games tend seems like it can get repetitive due to its simple nature.

    Monster Match Review

    Overall, I had a really fun time playing this game. It’s perfect for kids and the rules are straightforward. Pros: Card designs are fantastic! Love the drawings on all the cards. The use of packaging as part of the game is a fantastic use of materials. Gameplay is entertaining and each round of games is quick and competitive. Cons: Unclear what the tiebreaker would be if two or more players picked a card at the same time.

    This game is really fun and quick! I played several rounds with my teenager and husband and we all had a blast, laughing at every turn and competing to be the fastest at matching a monster! My husband suggests calling out your roll every time so that everyone can hear. I can see myself playing this game with my young nieces and nephews. It's quick and fun and will keep their attention for at least one whole round.

    Monstrously fun!

    When I asked my kids how they felt about Monster Match, my 9 year old son JP responded, “I love this game, it is awesome! This game is the best game for kids of all ages. It is 'monstrously' fun ;)" and my 7 year old son and 5 year old daughter both responded with "love it”.This is the only matching game to engage my kids. The 3 of them did not want to stop playing and tried to stretch the game out by trading monsters afterwards. As a family practice MD, I love the way the game engages rapid visuospatial processing along with hand eye coordination without amping up competitiveness. Since everyone can only take one card, by the end of the game my older kids were helping my younger one find a match to make sure that she wasn’t left out of the round. I loved seeing my kids help each other within a competitive game. The tower makes rolling the dice fun and overall the game is super easy to take out and put away. This morning, my kids had pulled it out and were playing it on their own! 5 stars.

    Was able to play a few rounds with my 3 year old and he loved it. It’s very simple and straight forward. Excellent game that uses matching, quick thinking, and counting. I love how fast it sets up and plays. As fun playing with 2 or 4 players. Great gift for those with little ones and would make a great stocking stuffer. Will be using this with my clients at work (I’m a child therapist.)

    Monster Mash was so fun!

    We had a lot of fun playing the game! It made us feel like kids again. Here are a few notes that we had:1. First roll of the game had to add 10 more. I think adding 10 cards every time can become a little overwhelming. We think lowering the amount of cards would be better for younger kids.2. We recommend adding challenges for the older kids, for example the first person to find a card is the only one who gets to keep the card and gets the point. Another option could be adding a time limit to how long you can take to be able to grab a card. At one point 2 of 3 of us found a card and the last girl didn’t find her card until we were already telling her to start rollingOverall super fun! We are a competitive group of girls so we all wanted to win. Haha. Will try tonight with kids

    Colorful, imaginative monster cards that are a nice size for little hands. We had so much fun "rolling" the dice through the mo ster box (contai s the dice so they aren't rolling everywhere). This game is great for the ages indicated (4+): play time was approx. 10 minutes, but we couldn't stop playing it -played three times in a row! Directions are simple and also include a blurb to read to kids.I plan to buy more of this game for my classroom and family/friends!

    Played the game. Overall we enjoyed it. It was fast paced and moved along. It didn’t take forever to finish. Really liked dropping the dice through the monster and how you had to think and quickly touch the card. It kept everyone playing engaged. Some monsters’ arms and legs were confusing and couldn’t tell what they were. Didn’t like the rule to put 10 more cards down if there wasn’t a match. Too many cards on the table. Lola also doesn’t like the font on the box. Lol. It’s a fun game, especially for younger kids.

    This game is super simple and quick to set up- you can pick up and play in literally a minute or two. The design and style are bright and colorful and definitely should be a good hit with younger kids. If you are looking for something with depth and strategy, this might not be the best game for you. But if you want a fun way to test your processing and reflexes at any age, consider giving this game a try!

    A Child Care Director's Review - My younger, 3 year old students caught on quickly, while the older ones (4-5) kept the game competitive throughout the whole deck! During the third game, a card was picked up and bent a bit by smaller fingers. However, unlike 'hidden' card games that can't afford to lose or scuff up the cards; Monster Match still plays great! Overall it's a great addition to our game shelf!

    Great game for kids AND adults!

    Played at a family party with a group of 5 cousins younger than 6. It was fast and easy to explain how the game worked to them. They giggled and laughed until the deck was gone. I did have to remind them to only use ONE finger not the whole hand so we don't hurt anyone. Then I took the game to a friend's game night with 10 adults over the age of 21. They thought it was a little silly kids game at first. But after the first 2 rounds the game became very competitive. There was lots of yelling and laughing. Overall a very cute FAST game that anyone can play and enjoy. Highly recommend for those that do not have the attention span to play more complex games. A game round lasts mere seconds and the whole game can be over in 10 minutes. LOVE the Monster Dice Tower that comes PREASSEMBLED. No seriously thank you I would never have been able to put that together. Wish there were more dice to choose from/add. A die showing options for the color of the monsters, or a die showing accessories/hats . These would be fun to mix the game up.

    The game is very easy to understand! I played a few rounds with a group of friends (we're all in our early 20s) and we had a blast! The game was so fun, and I will definitely be bringing it to future parties and hang outs! It's a quick-paced game that's very easy to understand and gets everyone together!!
