Need to spice up game night?
Encourage active play with this family game that’s a cute and silly twist on the classic game of “War”.
Both teams flip over a card and whoever has the higher one gets to keep both. If there’s a tie, you’ll both have to roll, throw, or dodge the soft, adorable Roly Polies to get those cards. Whoever has the most cards at the end of the game wins. It’s part carnival game, part kids card game, all screen free fun that even grown-ups will enjoy.
It encourages active play, problem-solving, counting skills, and family bonding–making it a great birthday gift, classroom game, or instant energy boost for game night.
Our kiddos love this game! It's the right mix of silly and easy to learn, so they can teach their friends when the parents need a break.
Fun game! Final challenge is definitely harder for the adults, but that makes it more fun for kids, right? Just make sure you don't destroy the box trying to open the game!
Played with some friends last minute. As a collective in our mid-30’s, we were a little overly confident in the minigames and told ourselves we needed to take BIG steps to make the games more reasonable “for adults.” Suddenly we learned how uncoordinated we really were and how hilarious it was to be either observers or participants in the games. Overall very fun and simple game, would be great for kids and adults alike, and provides inspiration for additional ideas on minigame challenges.
We played with three adult players (one team of two(2) and one team of one(1)) and had a really good time! The game was really easy to learn and the roly poly activities interspersed kept things engaging and active. Our cats also really enjoyed playing along when we were rolling/tossing the roly polies and helped to "defend" the players from the roly polies. Probably would not bring to a party with other adult friends, but would bring to events with children.
Roly Poly Goalie is an awesome game! We had so much fun. I think the adults liked it more than the kids. It's great to have a game that younger kids can play and you can throw things!
Also, the artwork is amazing. Definitely worth adding to our game collection.
