    Snap circuits meets adventure, strategy and suspense!
    We love Forbidden Island, so we got Forbidden Sky for Christmas. It has just enough in common with Forbidden Island to make it familiar, but it is different enough to be fresh and exciting. You and your teammates have to work together to build a platform in space, both connecting copper wires and building a working circuit to escape in the rocket, all the while trying to use your unique skills to survive lightening and high winds. It is definitely 10 and up, but if you have kids who love snap circuits, they will love this game. It is great for team-building: if one of you dies, you all lose the game. It requires strategizing in order to build the platform in such a way to make a proper circuit. Some of the pieces needed a dab of glue as they had come apart, but it was a simple fix. If you're new to the Forbidden series, it may take a few plays to get the hang of the game. There are a lot of different aspects, strengths, and variables to keep in mind as you play, but it's a lot of fun once you "get it". Definitely a high suspense game!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fun but much harder!
    Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2022
    As owners of forbidden desert, and forbidden Island, we found forbidden sky to be more complex and harder to win. Played it twice in a row the first time. We played the previous games with our 8 and 6 year kids and did very well. Forbidden sky was much harder with the kids. Still enjoyable, but I think we will have to play several times before we really get this one down. Maybe adults only. Our Rocket works great, and the instructions were easy to understand. I was also bummed it did not come in a tin, but if a tin could damage the rocket the cardboard is just fine. All of our tiles matched up well, no defects in the printing. We will play again!
