I'm convinced that I must be slightly dyslexic. How else could I do so incredibly well at a game that involves mixed up tiles needing to be ordered to make words quickly?
Note: This review is about the board game Boggle, not the PC game Boggle
What's great about Boggle?
It's a simple game, played with a small portable set of dice, an egg timer, and a pencil and paper. In this age of complicated board games, Boggle stands out as one of the least difficult to grasp.
It's fun for kids of all ages. Gee, I never thought I'd have occasion to use that cliche. It is true, however. I started playing in junior high school and haven't stopped enjoying it.
You can play with two people as easily as you can play with eight. In fact, as many people as you can cram around the board is your player limit.
What's not so great
Parents with small children, listen up: It's loud. Specifically, when you shake up the dice in their hard plastic container before beginning your game, be prepared for quite a racket. If you, like I, play after junior goes to sleep, muffle the shaker under a blanket or some pillows to avoid waking him up.
If you lose one die, you've lost a lot. Sure you can still play the game without one or two dice, but the board looks like a jack-o-lantern, toothless and incomplete. So try not to lose any dice. Oh, by the way, it's REALLY easy to lose dice.
It's addictive. Really addictive. And if you get good, you'll get a reputation for being a ringer and nobody will want to play with you (not that I have personally experienced this of course).
