Buckaroo is a game aimed at younger children and when we bought it for my niece it cost us £9.99 although that was at least a year or two ago. It is a game of skill that requires a steady hand, any number of players can take part, the idea is that you have to place certain mining gear on your donkey before you go off looking for gold however if you load too muck onto his back he will buck the wole lot off. It can be a fun game to play with smaller children as they get quite excited as the load more and more stuff on, it is enrirely made from plastic, the donkey is on a stand and has a hinge in the rear which allows you to press down to secure ...  Read the complete review

When I was a child one of my favourite games was buckaroo, it was just so exciting trying to get all the camping equipment on the “donkey's” back without setting it off. Now I'm older and have got children of my own, I thought I'd never get to play it again. But, one of the toys my youngest daughter bought with her birthday money was, yes you've got it, a brand new Buckaroo, and let me tell you something, it's changed a bit in the 25 years since I was a child. ~~~So what's Buckaroo?~~~ Buckaroo is a children's game described on the box as : “The original saddle stacking game with an even moodier mule.” Consisting of Roo, a ...  Read the complete review

Buckaroo,what an awful Game this used to be when I was a child,I am afraid to say it has stayed that way. My children had this game as a present from someone else.I definately wouldnt have considered buying it. After pushing down the Donkeys back end,you then take it in turns to place items,such as a bucket,spade upon its body.The object of this game is to try to get all the items on before the Donkey bolts,sending everything flying. But it is still made of cheap, easily breakable plastic.It does not feel like a quality Toy!! Fine entertainment to a child for a few days then Yawn Yawn,can be heard as the game has quickly become boring. The ...  Read the complete review
