This game recreates the classic Hungry Hungry Hippos experience with simplified setup and storage. Designed for preschoolers, it accommodates 2 to 4 players who each control one of four hippos. Players launch marbles into the center pond, competing to have their hippo collect the most marbles. The game features an instant marble reload system in each hippo's trough, allowing for continuous play without pauses.
Storage is streamlined with a dedicated marble case to prevent loss, and the hippo levels fold up for compact storage in the original box. Suitable for ages 4 and up, this game works well for family game nights, playdates, or as a gift option. The gameplay remains faithful to the original version while improving convenience.
Things to Keep in MindCommon concerns include the toy's perceived decline in quality compared to older versions, with many users noting flimsy construction, parts like hippos or levers malfunctioning, and a general lack of durability. Additionally, the small game balls are frequently cited as a choking hazard for very young children. Why You'll Like ItThe game maintains its appeal as a fun and engaging classic for young children, offering a quieter play experience than previous versions and convenient built-in storage for the game balls.
