Description

Bring the adventure to life with Jumanji Deluxe, the electronic version of the legendary board game. The drums of Jumanji greet you and your band of brave adventurers as you suddenly find yourselves deep in the jungle. Danger lies along your path, threatening to take away your 3 precious Life Tokens. Your goal is to reach Jumanji (the center) and call out its name, but beware: if any of your group runs out of Life Tokens, everyone loses! On each turn, roll dice and move along the path, using the electronic Green Dome to reveal a captivating riddle or perilous event. Look deep into the Dome as mysterious words and animations illuminate and appear. From poisonous spiders to mountain avalanches, danger is everywhere! With 100 Challenges to survive, you never know what Jumanji has in store for you. Reach the center with at least one Life Token left per player and yell “JUMANJI!” – you’ve just won for the whole group! Jumanji Deluxe is an immersive, exciting adventure game that puts you in the center of the action. For 2 to 4 players, ages 8 and up. 3 AA Batteries included so you can play right away.

    Fun for the whole family

    You will be immersed in the world of Jumanji immediately as you open the game. The game itself is well made and really cool looking as it looks like a briefcase. The orb in the middle starts playing a video and music plays when you open the game. Every turn starts by rolling the dice, moving your piece and pressing the green orb for a riddle. Some of the challenges are interactive and require you to grab items around you and some involve creative storytelling. If you roll doubles, you get a second turn so the game may end pretty quickly. It's a fun game to play once in a while and with new people, but I can't see myself playing this very often.

    Fun Game, Flawed Execution

    My husband and I played this with our two boys aged 9 & 11.
    They found the game to be really fun, my 9 year old said it was "Amazing!".
    We found the game to be quite loud, and the sounds went on far too long after the riddles had left the screen.
    It was hard to read the text on the dome if you were sitting on the side of the game board.
    You need a LOT of room to play this game; a table big enough to spread out 100 cards, and room to act out the challenges and events.
    This game will have you running around, so make sure that there's space for that.
    100 cards seems a bit excessive, maybe there could be fewer categories?
    There is a lot of reading in this game, so kids will likely need an adult to help them out. You will need to refer to the instructions for all events, so make sure you keep them safe.
    The presentation of the game is excellent, the molded case looks great and holds everything safe inside.
    Overall, we enjoyed our play through, and will likely be playing it again.
