Holiday Gift Guide - Loonacy Matching Card Game Review and Giveaway


 
Fast-paced, easy to learn and extremely fun to play, the objective of Loonacy is simple: Be the first to empty your hand of seven cards. That’s it! Each card features two images, and players must match one image on a card in-hand with another identical image on the topmost card of the discard pile. Loonacy does not require turn taking; rather, a fast eye and quick hand are needed to win. Loonacy features 100 cards with colorful art. For ages 8 & up - but younger kids pick it up quickly with adult guidance. Designed for 2-5 players - plays in about 5-10 minutes, on average. Loonacy is available at ThinkGeek.com and Amazon .


 A great family game for the upcoming holiday season, this is fun for kids and adults alike!



Our Thoughts

This is the cutest game ever. My favorite game growing up was matching cards and this is like that a little bit, but faster paced. There are so many images that you can match you have to really puzzle it all together in your head. I played this with my five and eight year old and it lasted at least twenty minutes long. Perfect for a "time out" during the busy day to reconnect as a family.

As pictured above, there are some samples of the different images you match, there are many more as well. My favorite part about playing this the first time with my daughters was we created names for each of the images, including "hippy couple" which gave us all a fun laugh. We ran out of cards the first time we played so we had to shuffle the discard piles. There eventually came a point where we all had so many cards and couldn't go that we laid them all out and I helped them and yet it was STILL fun.

The cards are small enough for little hands to use them without any problems and there are so many cards that if, by chance, you lose one, it won't affect the game.

I have Fluxx and it can be quite fun, but also quite annoying since it changes at the whim of a player or the chance of the game. Choose One looks like it would be fun with your friends because you would learn things you didn't know about them.
