Aggravation & Games Parcheesi Royal Edition, Multicolor (6106)

I loved this game growing up and it is exactly how I remember it from the 90's. It is similar to Trouble or Sorry with a little more strategy and a lot more laughing. My 6 year old son had the rules down after a couple of games playing together. We have tons of board games and I'm pretty sure this is his favorite now. He laughs so much when we play. My husband (32yrs) who doesn't always get into board games saw us playing this one afternoon and said, "I get to play the next game!" Now he always wants to play with us, and he's usually the one insisting on "one more game" even though it's past bedtime. The marbles stay in the holes as long as you're not too rough and are careful where you roll the die. I would definitely say it's funnest to play with 3 people...6 players turns into a lot of waiting for your turn.

I really liked Aggravation as a kid and was heartbroken when I learned my mom had sold our original game. I decided to check on here and found this. It isn’t the version I grew up with as a child (that version you win quicker in a way that was less fair). The update to the board to not allow for an easy lucky win was a welcome addition. I finally convinced my wife and two other couples to sit down and play with me the way this game was meant to be played. What ensued was a six player mayhem with trash talk and name calling included. It was just as good as I remember. This is a great game to any board game closet and will stay in mine for years to come, just don’t let my mom see it.

Aggravation has been played in my family since I can remember (5+ decades); bringing our children into the game as they became old enough & now my granddaughter plays! It is a fixture at every summer family reunion w/awards for the Comeback Kid; Top Dog & others related to the game during our "Tournament of Familia" The game itself can take an hour & 1/2 to play, depending on how it goes. But it's always fun & no two games are ever the same!

I was a little worried after reading some reviews, but I'm happy I purchased this game.If you are expecting the quality of a $70 dollar wooden set in a $20 cardboard box, then that is where the problem is.The quality of this game is no different than that of any other board game. As long as you take care of it, it will last a long time.

My family LOVES this game (ages five years old to 60+)! The game is easy to learn. It is great for as few as two to as many as six players. This newer version seems more to be more portable because it folds into a square about 8-9" in size rather than the older version that only folds in half.The game comes with extra marbles (I think one or two) for each color and one die. My family prefers to play with multiple dice but it doesn't make much of a difference.Rounds can go pretty quick or take some time depending on how competitive your group is and how many players you have.

I hadn't played Aggravation before, but when our family got sick of Monopoly, Parcheesi, Sorry, and Life, we went for it. It is very much like Sorry except with a few twists that make it more interesting. The stars in the center of the board let you migrate around faster, and there is more chance for "bopping" as my kids call it. You are more likely to get sent back to your base. Also, six people can play, which makes for a more interesting/scary journey around the board (if you have six people). My only complaint was that the game can take forever to finish, so we had to make up a few of our own family rules to get it over quicker. Also, it can cause more tears if your players are more sensitive to getting sent home. Oh, and the gameboard is pretty small. We were kind of hovering over a footstool--don't know why they couldn't have made it more Monopoly sized. Otherwise, worth adding to your stash, especially if you like Sorry but feel like you're 6 years old when you play it.

I grew up playing the original Aggravation with my grandmother. I wanted to teach my boys this game, and my husband surprised us with this game for Christmas. This game is pretty easy to teach to kids - one time through and my 4 and 5 year old understood how the star and special middle shortcuts work and everything. Great game like Trouble or Sorry with a little extra element of the unique shortcut. The board is a little smaller than the original brown one (probably 1960-1970 version), but it's still a good size. As other reviewers mention, it does differ from the original game a little. The colors of peices are brighter (which we liked) and the marbles aren't real marbles, they're made out of plastic. When I read this prior to adding it to my wish list I was a little disappointed to read that, but after playing it myself, the "marbles" do have some weight to them and don't feel super plastic. I'll admit I had to hit it against the coffee table to tell for sure if it was plastic or marble. Very pleased with our new family game, especially for the nostalgia of playing my grandma's favorite game.

If you enjoy games like Parcheesi and Sorry you will most likely enjoy this one as well. I opted to pick up this, the classic version. The artwork is really well done, I just wish the board was slightly more sturdy. But it's by no means bad, I have seen much worse. A fun game among younger ones, family members, and those of us who are nostalgic for our youth.

LOVE it played it a couple of times now

Loved this game as a child and didn't think it was still being made. It's not the classic board from the 80's but it's the same lovable game!! I wish the marbles were glass like they used to be instead of plastic, but they even add an extra marble per colour in case one goes missing! Hours of fun!!

El juego me parece excelente, muy divertido.En cuanto a la calidad, el tablero no está muy bien cortado, quedan algunas imperfecciones (que no afectan casi nada al jugar, pero si molestan un poquito).El dado también podría ser mejor (no gira mucho).

Whooped my boyfriend's ass in this game. He hates it. 10/10.Highly recommend this game for a fun time.

Es un juego que apela a la nostalgia. Lo jugaba de niño y lo sigo disfrutando igual. No es muy complicado y puede prolongarse el tiempo de juego, cosa que hay que tomar en cuenta si te gustan los juegos ágiles
