BRAIN GAMES Pyramid of Pengqueen 3D Board Game - A Thrilling Hide & Seek Game - Award Winning Strategy Game for Children, Families & Casual Gamers, Blue

I played this with my 9 and 11 year old children. You can tell a game is a hit when just reading the rules gets them to grin. They both knew the game had some depth to it as we went through the rules. I play a lot of games and what I am particularly interested in is balance, replayability, and the skill to luck ratio. This game is meant for kids, but it has the intrigue of higher level games.I love the trouble hunters run in to if they roll too many mummies. Players are constantly weighing risk and reward when it comes to rolls and pursuing treasure.I am also a fan of the game board set up. It reminds me of Captain Sonar a little. Great game.Cons: I wouldn't let little children play this game by themselves because the magnets are very tiny and would easily be lost by little ones, rendering the game impossible to play. So I wish they would have made the magnets and board either bigger or simply make every magnet a large piece like the mummy is.

My family loves this game. My 4 year old is always asking for one of the Brain Game’s penguin games. Ice Cool was great but this game dives under the school to find The Pyramid of the Pengqueen. This game uses magnets to move around the board. You are trying to collect your treasure before the pengqueen catches you. It’s a fun twist on the classic cat and mouse games. The only problem I have with the game is the extremely small pieces you move around the board. The components are designed the way they are because of the gimmick of the game. The pies flip onto the pengqueen when she catches you. It is just annoying with my large fingers. But put all that a side, it is a great game fore the whole family.

Pyramid of Pengqueen is a light, fun, family game of hidden movement. Up to four penguin explorers move their markers around a vertical magnetic board, while one Pengquuen player on the other side of the board, tried to capture the explorers, who are trying to collect her treasures. The game involves a clever magnetic movement mechanism, and the rules are quite easy to learn. If you have played the Scotland Yard board game, this will be familiar to you. The only negative thing for me was the small size of the magnetic penguin markers. Otherwise, a great filler game, that is almost as popular with adult players as with kids.

The game itsel is really fun. My kids enjoy it every time we play. The only complaint is how small the magnets are. Honestly, they're absurdly small player pieces. Be careful or you'll need a magnifying glass to find them if dripped in the carpet. ;-)

Suitable for children and children with adults... this game is another packaging marvel from the publisher that brought you Ice Cool and Ice Cool 2. A breeze to set up and tear down, super simple to learn, with rules that are memorable and fun. I recommend 3 or 4 players, and a fair dose of good sportsmanship if available. One pro-tip - as a penguin, learn to move your arms and eyes to throw off the mummy during your turn. Would recommend to basically anybody.

Main board came delaminated (bubble/separation) from internal metal sheet making the magnetic pieces lose connectivity. Swapping out the pengqueen magnet with a stronger one.

Great game where one side of the board is magnetic treasure hunters and the other side is the mummy. The treasure hunters can see where the mummy is but the mummy can't see where the treasure hunters are. If the mummy catches a treasure hunter, the magnet clicks on top of them and the mummy gets a point. It was very well done and fun!

Great family game. Excellent with children. A simple hidden movement game with the Ice Cool theme. Ice Cool much simpler game while this one steps up the complexity and introduces children to modern games. Glad I purchased.

Ta gra "chodziła za mną" od kilku lat i wydawała się nie do zdobycia.🐧 Jeden gracz wciela się w mumię, a pozostali (od 1 do 4) w pingwinki, poszukujące skarbów w piramidzie... Każdy z pingwinów ma swój magnetyczny, maleńki pionek, 4 żetony życia oraz pięć kart celów ze skarbami, które ma odszukać. Mumia porusza się za pomocą dwuczęściowego pionka.🐧 Mumia i pingwiny poruszają się po dwóch przeciwnych stronach magnetycznej planszy. Pingwiny widzą ruchy mumii, co robi niezłe wrażenie - staram się to pokazać w filmiku.:) Natomiast mumia nie wie, jak poruszają się pingwiny, chyba że odnajdą one skarb - odnaleziony skarb muszą ujawnić mumii, a to zdradza położenie poszukiwacza.🐧 Poruszamy się w zależności od wyniku rzutów kośćmi. Pingwiny mają do dyspozycji 5 białych kości. Rzucają wszystkimi do skutku i wybierają tylko jeden wynik, lecz jeśli wyrzucą symbol mumii, taka kość jest "blokowana". Jeśli pingwiny zdecydują się odblokować kość, mumia otrzymuje bonusowe ruchy - po jednym za każdą odblokowaną kość. W swojej zwykłej kolejce mumia, w zależności od wyniku rzutu czarną kością, może pokonać od 1 do 3 pól.🐧 Pingwiny wygrywają, jeśli uda im się zdobyć wszystkie skarby wskazane na ich kartach, a mumia wygrywa, jeśli wystarczająco często będzie skutecznie łapać pingwiny.;)🐧 Gra "Pyramid of Pengqueen" robi świetne pierwsze wrażenie, bo choć pomysł jest stary (pamiętacie gry w piłkarzyki poruszane magnesami po szkolnych ławkach?), to dość unikatowy. Jeśli gramy poprawnie, tj. pingwiny nie mogą w jednym ruchu cofać się (np. w jednym ruchu zrobić trzech kroków w jedną stronę i zaraz po tej samej linii czwartego w drugą stronę) i aby dotrzeć do skarbu, muszą wyrzucić dokładnie taką liczbę ruchów, jaka jest potrzebna, to rozgrywka jest dobrze zbalansowana i z perspektywy mumii łączy dedukcję ze szczęściem. Po stronie pingwinów przyda się odrobina blefu.;)✔️ Rozgrywki w "Pyramid of Pengqueen" bardzo nam się podobają. Mechanika jest ciekawa, sama rozgrywka wymaga skupienia i rodzi lekkie napięcie. Kości fajnie psują szyki.:) Czaimy się na siebie jak to w grze w kotka i myszkę.✔️ Pudełko jest spore, ale komponentów jest stosunkowo mało. Pionki są maleńkie i łatwo mogą się zgubić.Serdecznie polecamy.👍

Eine gute Idee den Jäger blind laufen zu lassen. Das sorgt für sehr unterhaltsame Katz und Maus Runden.Würde es unbedingt weiterempfehlen.

Muy buen juego, cada vez que lo juego ya sea con chicos o adultos es muy divertido. Son de esos juegos para niños que con algo de interés y bufonada los adultos se divierten en grande. Sin duda lo recomiendo para adultos que quieren jugar con sus hijos.

This is an engaging game for children and adults alike. I'd particularly recommend it for parents who are looking for something that rewards a bit more tactical thinking.The game mechanisms provide a good compromise between those familiar dice-based board games and more advanced strategy-based games. There's enough luck involved to keep things uncertain but not so much as to render forward-thinking redundant.The rules are pretty straightforward but there is a little scope for misunderstanding. Once you've got the rules under your belt there aren't too many reasons to refer back to the instructions.The magnets and vertical board work well, the pieces attach firmly but move easily. They also snap nicely into position nicely when the mummy catches them. These elements really help deliver the gameplay in a satisfying way.The mummy blindly chases the treasure hunters around the board, being given occasional clues by which treasures they collect. The adventurers must collect the required treasures before the mummy captures them a specified number of times (depending on number of players).With two players the game works well. However, once you have three or more players the game gains a bit more strategic depth.As well as the mummy, the treasure hunters are in competition with each other to collect their treasures first. Trying to thwart each other, whilst also denying the mummy victory, makes for a rewarding challenge.Games can be played quite quickly, so everyone can have a turn playing the mummy while it still feels fresh.All in all, this is very fun and satisfying game. The suspense of chasing or being chased is delivered really well. It's mainly one for families, I'd say, but I wouldn't rule it out for a few quick rounds of a board game night either.

Sur le papier, ce jeu nous plaisait énormément ! Mon fils de 11 ans et ma fille de 7 ans adoraient le concept. Mais nous avons été terriblement déçus : impossible de jouer correctement à cause des aimants défectueux.
