The kids tried to play it a few times but were disappointed. We had this game as kids so was excited to still find the Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots for my daughter. Well when we received it the Robots were much smaller than the original and they barely touch each other when they are punching. After 2 years I have had enough. It is going in a rummage sale.
I don't remember as a child it being that difficult to knock the other guy's block off. Sometimes I have to hold the other with my hand and repeatedly punch at the chin to get the 'block' up. Frustrating.but fun.
BOY. While it is not educational in the least , it is loads of fun. Talk about bringing back memories. My husband and I are both over 50 and we still love this game. Almost any age can play. So if you have kids ( or even if you don't ) I think you should try this game, I don't think you will be disappointed.
I wish I would have known about Amazon's review system before I purchased this. Nobody wants to play it anymore and even their friends ask to play somethings else.
We have had it now for 6 months and I am fed up with it to the point that it is being thrown out today. I've never played or seen the original but had heard how fun it was so I bought this new version for my 9 year old.
Sons complain that they have to bang the buttons with their fists and even then the heads sometimes don't pop up. I comes apart very easily and I find pieces of it scattered all around the house.
The rope never stays in place, robots come off easily from their stands, it is not sturdy. I'm sick of tripping over the pieces.
I can understand all of the negative comments and now, before I make a purchase, I check to see if it is carried by Amazon and what others are saying about it.
I don't feel this is an educational toy at all, but my son enjoys it a lot.
