Customer Reviews

The other reviewer explains the game very well, so I'll stick to the reasons I decided to return the game. My son received this game for his birthday and we set it up to play.
There are four claws to pick up the little colored toys. You are supposed to pick up the toys that correspond to the color claw you are using as they rotate around the board. Your claw has no real control, basically you peck at the toys and try to fling them to the middle. Two adults had trouble managing the claw and actually getting the pieces into the center. The pieces were just as likely to be flung off the game all together.
The game, when assembled, does not fit back into the box, so you have to take it apart and assemble it every time you play. Each claw snaps into the center piece and then snaps out. I didn't like the way it felt to unsnap the piece, I think if done repeatedly the piece would likely break. I also don't think most children could managed this task.
This game takes 3 AA batteries which are not included.

I agree with the other reviews that you cannot control where the claw puts the pieces or even if the claw will pick up a given piece when you attempt to pick it up. That being said, this game is still fun! Not being able to count on your piece landing where you want it actually adds a level of difficulty to the game. This game would be super boring if you grabbed your piece and placed it in the middle 100% of the time.
This gift was given to my five year old nephew for his birthday. After it was opened and assembled, the adults pretty much took it over. It's a blast throwing your and your opponents pieces around and off the "game board" and then not knowing who will win at the end because the center pops up and shoots pieces off. The game seems decently durable as 4 adults were slamming the claws into the turning "game board" and nothing broke. The only negative I would add is that there are a bunch of small pieces which could get lost easily.
I could see how others could get frustrated with the game because of the lack of control but I (we) had a blast playing it and I am definitely picking it up for my son for Christmas.
