Review
Combine stacking blocks with Japanese-inspired cuisine, and you get the Maki Stack game, a fun race to beat your opponent as you each try to complete stacking challenges. With simple instructions, kids can set up and play on their own. Wooden maki, California, and tobiko nigiri rolls, along with plates and soy sauce bottles, are divided between two players (or two teams), and then they need to quickly—and precisely—stack the pieces to match the challenge card. Sound too easy for your kids? The game’s different modes can increase the fun and difficulty, even for parents: Chopstick Mode allows players to use only two fingers to stack pieces, or one finger per teammate—with hilarious results! And in Mask Mode, blindfolds are added to the mix, though they might be a little too large for some kids, making it easy to sneak a peek. Regardless, the game offers tons of variation, making it a fun new favourite for family game night.
