The Addams Family: Find Uncle Fester! Card Game Review
Ages: 8+
Players: 2-6 (For the purpose of this review, there was 2 players)
Set Up Time: < 1 minute
Playing Time: Took us 10 minutes.
Object: Be the first player to collect all seven Addams Family members.
Review:
+ Cards have pictures of the Addams Family members: Wednesday, Pugsley, Gomez, Morticia, Lurch, Thing, Uncle Fester and Tully (Which is the evil card that you must get rid of in order to be able to keep the Uncle Fester card).
+ Easy, simple instructions (example: a red card might say "Discard your Lurch card" or "Ask another player for a card you may need".)
- There is no Grandma card! Apparently she is not an important member of the family.
Overall:
In the end, the simple instructions and the nice picture cards both helped to create a pretty good game. We played several times with 10 minutes being the longest playing time. I don't think the suggested age of 8+ is required to play this game and aside from there being no Grandma card, it was well thought out and fun to play.
B+
