Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this for my 4 year old son because I remember playing this game as a child. Unfortunately, they don't make things like they used to. The quality of this toy is incredibly poor. The game itself is made of a cheap, thin plastic that easily bends when in use. The Hippos necks get consistently stuck in the "lunge" position and you need to stop the game to fix at least one Hippo during each round. In addition, the cheap, plastic marbles get stuck in the Hippos necks so they stop "eating" the marbles during the game unless you reach in and try to pry the marbles loose. In order to set up the game you need to take each Hippo off of the bottom of the board and attach it to the top as everything is stored on the underside of the game. The effort that it takes to set up and store this game properly means that my 4 year old can't play it without my help. I can't imagine that the game will last much longer with any type of heavy use.
