Invasion of the Cow Snatchers

Game will last a long time, everything is sturdy plastic, the only cardboard parts(besides the cards) is the crop circles and someone has made them printable on printables.com so as soon as I have yellow I'm going to print them up. Might also just do dark green. I'm going to get sleeves for the cards and put them in a larger box, kids like to play with sticky fingers. Also, the solution to ever game is on the back so I'll put them back to back so the solution can't be seen without removing the card. Other than that this is a really fun game. The first cow is tricky to pick up, you need to press down on the UFO and wiggle it at the same time to pick it up sometimes. If the magnet was any stronger it would pick them up from the sides, I imagine when they were making the game it was a balancing act between height of the board and strength of magnet. Really good game for kids, they can play solo and after the easy levels the medium levels get challenging. My daughter is 6 and she loves it, working her way through, and she can play it by herself which is really nice. Can't recommend this game enough.

I had this game on my want list for about 2 years now. It was recently on sale, and I decided to buy it. So glad that I did. It's so much fun. I haven't had any issues with the magnets not being strong enough like some people have had, but I think the reason why, the game comes with 4 cardboard stickers that you're supposed to place on the edges of the top. I tried it and noticed the UFO doesn't pick up the pieces as well, so I removed the stickers. I'm not sure what the purpose of the stickers are, but they seemed unnecessary to me. My daughter and I have tournaments on who can solve the maze the fastest. It's been a great bonding experience for the two of us. I just wish I bought the game sooner.

This game is super fun with varying levels of play, which makes it fun for adults also!! The game is fairly easy to understand and play, however, the rules could be a bit more clear, especially for the genius level. The biggest reason we give this game only 4 stars is because the UFO doesn’t always magnetize the cows and requires reaching under the grid to force the attachment. Overall the game board is sturdy and well crafted but we fear damaging the grid attachment because it is made of thick plastic and fashioned in points, which if not careful could break off, making the grid and game useless.

When I got mine, the blue cow wouldn't lift off the board when the UFO passed overhead. I sent an e-mail to the company with my name and mailing address, and in less than a week I had a full set of replacement cows. The new one worked perfectly. The game is a lot of fun and is a very unique design, unlike anything else I think I've ever seen before.

There are a lot of these puzzle games out there, but this is one of better in terms of inventiveness and build quality. The puzzles do a good job of ramping up the difficulty slowly so young children can level up their skills, at least until the big jump in difficulty with the most advanced genius level. The concept of alien cow snatching is cute and adds some flavor. My 7-year-old really enjoyed it.

Concept is great and my son loves puzzles so this was perfect, but the top clear plastic is molded wrong so that you can “cheat” to get the pieces over obstacles because it is bent upward. Instead of fun only caused frustration.

This game comes with cards to create multiple puzzles. My kids enjoy working their way up to the harder puzzles. We did have a problem where the spaceship magnet was not very magnetic and was not holding the cows while moving around the board. We contacted the manufacturer's customer service and explained the situation. They quickly sent us a new space ship and more cow magnets, which work great. I recommend you contact them if you have any issues with the product for a fast and pleasant resolution.

The objective of this game is to use the magnetic space ship to pick up a series of discs and maneuver them over hurdles. The problem is that the magnet on the ship isn't strong enough to pick up the discs. Basically, this product is defective. I tried to email Think Fun about the problem and I left several voice mails with their listed customer service line. They never responded to me. Because of their poor customer service, I will not buy or recommend another Think Fun product. Otherwise it's a fun, cute game. I fixed it by adding a magnet. I just feel that it should work correctly straight out of the box.

Bought for a 7 year old and she loved it. Probably wouldn't go any younger though. The game concept is unique and entertaining.

This game would possibly be ok for a 2-5 yr old, and a 5 year old could get bored very quickly. A huge disappointment 😞

L'aimant ne fonctionne pas

Good for keeping the young brain ticking

Unfortunately, after offering the game to our daughter for her birthday and opening it up, the magnet is not strong enough for the yellow and purple cows. Dear seller, please advise what you can do. The game can't be played. Thanks.
