Product Description:

Since 1934, players of all ages have been chasing one another around the classic game board, trying to get their own four pawns from Start to Home. But it's not that easy, because you never know what the next card will hold: Will you move forwards or backwards' Will you hit a slide and shoot ahead, or will an opponent bump you back to start' For 2 to 4 players. Contents include: Sorry! game board, deck of cards, and 16 pawns.

Editorial Review:

This classic game of luck, strategy, and determination is easy to grasp for children as young as 6 years old, yet it's fun for adults and older siblings too. By drawing cards, players move their game pieces around the board, hoping to eventually accumulate all their pieces at the final destination--home sweet home. Sorry is known as the game of "sweet revenge," since players can send each other's pawns back to the starting line, thus forcing one another to lose ground and begin all over again. This kind of frustration may be hard for children under age 8 to handle. In fact, young ones typically crumble into tears of outrage when their pawns are cavalierly sent back. The only recourse is to teach children how to plot their own revenge, which makes them feel as powerful as superheroes.

Great Family Game
I have a five year old and a ten year old and we love to play this game at game night. Teaches counting skills and good sportsmanship. We love yelling "SORRY" (when you get that card).

Good for kids age 4 and up
My husband and I play this game with our 4-year-old twins (a boy and a girl). Before buying this game, we were actually considering buying some of those "non-competitive" games. You know, the ones where you work together to defeat a common enemy? My kids were having a lot of trouble with the concept of losing. I was a bit worried that this game would exacerbate that. However, we found that they actually LOVE this game. We instituted some rules, such as all players must shake hands at the end of every game and say "good game," and other rules enforcing good sportsmanship (e.g. no gloating or teasing). After just a little while of enforcing these rules, they have become second nature and now our kids are free to enjoy any game without feeling devastated if they get bumped back to start or don't win. They know there is always a next time. They really enjoy this game and ask for it often.

Lots of fun for the whole family
I never grew up with Sorry and now that I own it I enjoy playing it very much with my four year old and his mother. You can be in last place and get a couple of good cards and be right in the thick of things again. Some people complain about not being able to leave home right away, but really it's not so bad and you can easily catch up.

I will say that this game has the most convoluted rules of any basic family board game that I've ever played. It is a lot of fun though.

Great Classic Game!
I bought Sorry for our family game playing nights and I am not disappointed at all. Our 5 year old is able to play along with us, and the game is easy enough to follow so that he has the chance to win also. We have had a great time with this game! I would recommend this game to families with young children that want to play a game where everyone has fun...young and old.

Great Family Game of Revenge and Strategy!
This is a great family game of strategy! Our 6 year old takes great pleasure in trying to send her parents back home. Good game for counting and number recognition. Since it is a game of chance and strategy, everyone has equal opportunity to win, regardless of their age.
