    Operation

    Ease to set up / learn

    No problem here. Just put the body parts in the right body cavities and off you go.

     

    Fun Factor

    Generates plenty of fun as everyone watches intensely to see if the buzzer is going to sound. Fairly quick to play so little danger of getting bored for the young ones.

     

    Family Factor

    Although a good family game for the first game or two, it’s likely adults are going to want to opt out after a couple of games. 

     

    Originality

    A game classic - it’s been around for over 20 years. Great original idea with simple execution.

     

    Play it again

    It’s one to get out of the cupboard again and again - but probably only in short bursts.

     

    Build quality

    This is where the game falls down. The body pieces can easily get lost (providing a box / bag to contain them would have been simple). Also the base is flimsy plastic.

     

    Educational

    Can help to understand what body parts go where.

     

    Value for money

    The basic version is not expensive and can provide good fun. But quality should be better for the price.

     

    Overall

    A fun game, better for the kids than the adults. Great idea that can be played again and again but let down a little by the build quality.
