Hungry Hippos is just one of several classic games that my young daughter was recently bought for Christmas and is a real fun blast from the past. The concept is a simple one: 2-4 players can play, each taking one of the coloured hippos to control, several balls are introduced to play and then you basically start smacking the ...

Hungry Hippos Oh my, these colourful hippos, red, yellow, blue and green, are they're so, so hungry but there's not much food to go around. The food, in this case, is represented as marbles. Just make sure the children don't put the marbles into their own mouths. The food is for hippos not humans! The ravenous ... Read the complete review

When I was a kid, this was a game that I always wanted but for some reason my parents would never get for us. I was never sure why really until I became an adult myself and we were bought it as a family gift for us all to play. At the time my youngest was 19 months old, which was too young really, but we got it out to play ... Read the complete review

It's that time of the year again, that time where we have to figure out what to get people for Christmas, (am I allowed to use the 'C' word on here? I'm not sure but I've said it now).

The frantic marble game. Hungry Hippos is one of my favourite games from childhood. It is so simple but I think that is the beauty of it, the simplicity, the fun, the frenzy and the laughs it produces. On your game board you have four very hungry hippos. They like to eat marbles, so when the marbles are released it ... Read the complete review

I can't believe that this game is still going. I remember playing this from 1987-1989 (I think it was around this time) and it was such a fun game. Me and my dad used to play this and my mum used to get on to us about the noise that this game made. I bought this for my nephew and i've played this a few times when i've been at the house ...

This is a game that can be played for 2-4 players, you could use 1 player but that would be pretty boring as you do need someone to compete against. My kids usually play this game as a two player and they do get very competative about it lol. The game consists of 4 hippos all in different colours, so you can chose the colour ...

Hungry Hippos is a game for children to play. I think it was quite an ingenious game to have invented when it first came out. It is a simple idea but lots of fun, The idea of the game is that you have these plastic hippos, there are four of them and they are different colours. They are situated around a circular arena ...
