I’ve attached a falsely calm and misleading video of my kids playing Dobble. They absolute love this game and will play the many variations for ages - and we’ve had it for years and it still comes out often. They were on the best behaviour and were playing very slowly as they knew I was filming. It usually gets fast and intense pretty quickly. Watching them play it with their grandparents is hilarious as it’s such a simply game but is so tricky as well.There are so many things about this game our family loves. Firstly this game is super compact. It is just a small tin so it can easily be kept in a drawer or a cupboard in a handy spot just to pull out and play whenever.

Such an amazing game! So addictive to play. Great game for all the family , very competitive. Really easy and lots of fun, if a bit frustrating when you can't see a match! Children and adults can play together and there are a few different versions of the game. This looks like a children's game, and I suppose it is. But play this with a load of adults and its even better! Very simple, match the pictures and put down a card. Get rid of all of yours to win. But you'll quickly find it's not as easy as it sounds and you'll get more and more frustrated each round you play.The premise is simple: find a matching image on another of the cards. They are the same colour and design but they may vary in size and their position on the card.

We've love board games and pen and paper games in our house and have been playing Dobble for over two years now.We love it!It's dead easy to pick up in one minute flat - It's a quick game and won't bore you to death 3 hours later - it's small and portable and perfect for travel and literally anybody can play it!What is it?It comes in a round tin which fits in your hand and contains 55 round cards. The cards are very good quality and have nice clear images on them. There's an instruction booklet which has all you need to know about the five games. All dead easy! But great fun.How do you play it?There's 5 different ways to play this - but they all work the same! The game has 50 pictures to choose from.

Every year I buy a family game to put under the tree at Christmas. This year was a bit tricky as my daughters are now 12 and 14 - not an easy age to entertain equally! Dobble was so much fun! We've played all the versions of the game and slammed the cards so much they're already getting a little battered! Their cousins who are 10 and 11 loved it so much that they want to get their own pack. It's a really simple concept but great fun. The more people you have playing the more exciting it is. At one point on Christmas day we had kids, parents and grandparents together all on their knees on the floor shouting out the symbols - some were unable to shout out because they were laughing so hard.

What a brilliant and perfect game! This is a visual speed matching game. Things I love about this game:1. We found the children aged 5 and 7 were equally as good as the adults for this game, so we didn't need to let them win. They genuinely won against us several times.2. The game is very fast to learn so anyone can join in instantly and be well matched against more experienced players.3. There are five variations on how to play which to learn if you want some variation.4. It's compact and will easily fit in a bag to take out as a game for children at a restaurant.5. I love playing it as an adult and might be fun as a quick easy pub game. We laughed a lot while playing too.6. It's fast (like a game of snap)

This is such a brilliantly simple game, stored in its own little tin so you can take it anywhere. The thing we like about it as a family is that we can all play (ages ranging from 8 to 47) and age doesn't seem to be an advantage, in fact quite the opposite! I think bright agile young minds find it easier sometimes to spot the matching symbols. The object of all the games with Dobble is to match a symbol on two cards; there will always be a matching symbol on each pair of cards, although sometimes the sizes will differ which seems to make it incredibly difficult to spot them, especially under pressure when you are trying to spot it before someone else!

We bought this game for our 8 yr old son and another child for Christmas and when the package arrived, I was initially slightly disappointed as it is a small tin in a box and did not look to have much substance at first glance.Upon playing the first game however we are now all hooked. It is really quick to pick up, addictive and the cause of significant competition between certain members of the family!!Basically, the aim of the game is to win as many matched cards as you can. Each player starts with a card each and the remainder are in a pile in the centre. All cards have 8 pictures on them but only 1 picture on every card will match 1 on any other card (very clever). Therefore,

Bought this for my wife as she likes basic games like UNO and is competitive as hell. To my horror she also destroys me almost every time we play. My eyesight isn't the best but when she's shouting out the names of the objects on the cards as she slams them down, it's like I'm blinded. The cards become a blur and I start to imply she's cheating as she can't possiblly be faster at matching up two snowmen than I am. The more she speaks the more my brain freezes and I wonder whether the years of marriage have somehow programmed my brain to shutdown. Maybe I'm a walkover. Maybe I give up to easy. Maybe my own competitiveness consumes me like a straight jacket. All I know is,

Dobble is an excellent introduction to the world of gaming, for the young and young at heart.Rules are very easily explained and understood - making it a nice option to play with friends or at parties as an ice-breaker, without having to spend hours explaining the rules before you get started. There are several variants, though the objective is essentially the same in each: win by identifying the matching shapes fastest. Each is quick and fun, adding to the game's replayability value. It comes in a sturdy, compact little tin box which travels very well for holidays or lunchbreaks.Both hardened gamers and people who typically aren't keen to play seem to enjoy Dobble. In fact,

Bought for Christmas for my Harry Potter mad 7 year old daughter. We’ve played it endlessly. We’re addicted. The more we’ve played the more we’ve got the character names right - as they’re cartoon drawings of items and characters we shouted “that one” at first, which didn’t work as well, but then figured out who and what they all are and it’s got better and better. Quick wits and good eyes, bet it’s great for her young brain. She’s quite competitive with it, had to keep playing until she “won”. I’m fairly convinced that occasionally there are cards with no matches, but we’ve just moved on and not double checked. So long as one of us have found a match.....We love games,

What a little gem of a game, everyone in our family loves a quick game of dobble. We are a family who likes to play various games be it board games, card games etc... There are five different mini game versions you can play to keep things interesting which are included on the little leaflet inside the tin. We also sometimes add our own forfeits or rules depending on the ages of those playing. Ages 4 to 65 have enjoyed playing this game. It’s super easy to pick up and can be learnt in just one game, it’s not over complicated with loads of rules, nice simple fun game, It comes everywhere with us as the cards are in their own tin which is small enough to fit in a handbag or backpack.

I got this for my 6 year old for Christmas and wasn't quite sure whether he was old enough for it. The game is little overpackaged and the tin with cards is only about three inches across and one high and the tin comes in a box far oversized for the contents.The game itself is simplicity itself and there are a number of mini games you can play around the theme of spotting the symbols that are the same. It is also one of those games where age is not always a benefit as my kids can be really eagle eyed. Some of the games can take seconds (hot potato) others five minutes and you can just stop when you want. Enough for a bit of excitement, some fun family time and small enough to put in your pocket for train journeys,

Introduced to the game by friends and is now a firm favourite! People we have played it with have bought it and we have bought it as a gift which has been well received too.A simple concept but addictive - and instructions for 5 variations inside which my sons love to play ALL of (never seem to play two games the same in a row!). My younger son is 7 and does get frustrated sometimes at being slower to find matches but it's really good for him and he enjoys it. I see there is a kids version but I wouldn't bother unless you're wanting to play with children a few years younger than that.The metal tin is a great touch and means we keep it in our daughter's changing bag to bring out when waiting for food at restaurants!

If you are trying to find a present for someone who is really into boardgames, don't buy this one. This game is for someone who quite likes boardgames, or is looking for something light and fun to do with friends and family.It's very easy to learn, doesn't need any particular skill. Even my son aged 5 can learn to play it in a few minutes, and can join in the play. And most importantly, it is lot's and lot's of fun.As it is so easy to teach, it is a great way to entertain guests. As it is a short game, you can always pack it away or carry on with another round, depending on how the guests react.If you are a boardgame lover, and you want to get your spouse into boardgames, this game will be great for you too!

As we’ll be having a different kind of Christmas this year I wanted to get some games in that were easy to learn for my parents who don’t speak English. This is perfect! So easy to play. No two cards are the same and the items aren’t all the same size. So the repeatability of this is great. It’s frustratingly fun when you can’t find something even though it’s staring you in the face! I’m impressed with how they’ve made it so every card has one item that matches another (is it only me whose brain is impressed with the maths behind it?) This game is so addictive and a round can be quick. We even broke it out to play before Christmas and have had hours of frantic spotting and yelling since.
