Hasbro Family Game Night
SCORE: 91
I realized at some point we had reviewed sequels to Hasbro Family Game Night, but never the original game. God blessed us with the financial resources to purchase this game on the Wii. I am so very glad He did. This is a great game for the millions of family game nights that happen all over the world.
Hasbro Family Game Night includes Connect 4, Battleship, Yahtzee, Boggle, Sorry!, and Sorry! Sliders. These six games come in multiple forms. For example Battleship comes in Classic, Salvo, Super Weapons, and Custom. My personal favorite is Salvo because the player launches as many missiles as they have ships. This cuts down the length of time it takes to play a game.
The visual effects in each of the games in Hasbro Family Game Night are wonderful. I loved seeing the water fly as missiles hit in Battleship. Or watching the pieces slide down the lane in Sorry! Sliders. Families earn things by winning games in Hasbro Family Game Night. They can then redecorate their rooms with what they earned.
Connect 4 is the hardest game in Hasbro Family Game Night. The computer player is insanely difficult. This is coming from someone who routinely wins against fellow human beings. I found Yahtzee to be one of the easiest games in Hasbro Family Game Night. Boggle is the most educational game in this compilation.
I enjoy the celebration sounds in Hasbro Family Game Night. It is such a delight to play a game that is good, fun, and safe for the entire family. The explosions in Battleship is the only possible area I can see that may offend some families. The controls are easy to pick up and learn on the Wii.
For me it has
been a wonderful pleasure to play and review Hasbro Family Game Night on
the Wii. This is one of those games that improves the image of our
entire industry. I am so glad it got multiple sequels.
