Product Information

I think adults would have handled this game a lot better, or maybe just don’t use it at a party with kids gone wild! Bought this for my kids, we all played it the first time in the house and had a blast, our whole family love this game.

Capture the flag was a huge hit this morning – in fact, it was the most exciting gift my boys received from Santa!The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because the rules were difficult to understand when it came to people guarding the orbs.

I run Fantasy Contact larps (obviously on haitus at the time of this writing), But this game provided an excellent, durable, game asset usable in most weather conditions. I received a prompt response telling me that two replacements were being sent to me which I received within just a couple of days. All of the pieces worked, although a couple of the bracelets seemed to have shorts in them because it took a little wiggling to get them to light up. My children are 5 and didn’t quite understand the rules but that didn’t matter so much as we all had a ball playing it! When we started playing, our teens dropped one of the flags pretty hard a few times and the bottom came off.We only tried the basic game but are planning to take it to the beach with our group of 16 and have a fun game on the beach! I followed the instructions that came with the game and got my replacement pieces within 2 days of submitting my request! Picture it, fourteen middle-aged men up to their wastes in mucky river water holding foam swords and shields wearing glow in the dark bracelets. Kinda felt bad, because I think it was supposed to be for the little kids, but if you give a crew of 30-somethings a keg + this game = awesomeness and hilarity! Another variation is when the players put bandannas in their pockets with about six inches sticking out.

My daughter got this game as a bday gift and it has filled her summer nights along with neighbors and friends. In a more difficult version, the flag is hidden in a place where it can only be seen from certain angles. One long-running example occurs on the Northrop Mall at the University of Minnesota on Fridays with typical attendance ranging from 50 to several hundred. Worth 5 stars if bracelets are a bit more durable, flags are brighter and indicator lights are a bit bigger.The manufacturer did a great job providing everything you need for it to really feel like you’re in a video game (LED boundary markers, jail markers, the orbs (flags), and bracelets for every play (16! I purchased this game for my 13yr son this Christmas, his friends and him played it right away and loved it.
