Hasbro Giant Connect 4

In the 1920’s two brothers created a company selling textile remnants. They soon started making and selling pencil cases and things for schools. This company was Hasbro. Over the years Hasbro purchased various other toy companies. Working with children for many a year I have played with lots of Hasbro toys. I was in the playground at work this week and joined in a game of connect four on the giant garden edition of this game. A large garden connects four /four in the row is made by a couple of other manufactures but ours is the Hasbro one.

Connect 4 is a timeless yet simple game. The idea of having a grid with slots that you put discs in to make a line, is rather basic, but it is quite often the simplest things that are magic, and now there is a Giant version for you to play. The idea of the game is to make a row of four of your discs, either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. You and another person take it in turns to drop one of your coloured discs (red or yellow) in one of the vertical slots (as this is the only way of putting the discs into play). Your opponent must try and make their own line of 4, and both of you must try and prevent the other from succeeding, whilst keeping focused on your own ...  Read the complete review

My dad brought this at the beginning of the summer and it's been used loads and is mad fun. I love Connect 4 and we've had the board game for years and this giant one is exactly the same only bigger. To play Connect 4 you have to decide who is going to be red and who is going to be yellow. Then we toss a coin to see who goes first. You place the disc at the top of the board and drop it down to where you want it to end up. The aim is to get 4 in a row but your opponent will be trying to block you and make lines of 4 for themselves. I like the sides of the board on this giant Connect 4 because that's where you keep the discs and it's a dead ...  Read the complete review

Well what can I say. It is obvious what the game is about if you know connect 4. For those who don't here we go. The aim of the game is that 2 people will take it in turns to enter a piece into one of the holes in the grid. One person will have a yellow counter the other will have a red, you have to get 4 counters in a line diagonally, horizontally or vertically and you will win. This is a great game for children because they tend to concentrate what they are doing when playing. This version is cool as my son says. It stands just over a meter tall so the children do have boxes to stand on so they can reach and it is easy to assemble. It comes equipped ...  Read the complete review

Connect 4 is a classic board game which brings back great memories from my childhood. They do say that the best concepts are the simple ones & this game illustrates this fact brilliantly. The game is played with two players, one plays with the red pieces whilst the other with the yellow pieces. Each player takes it in turns to drop their pieces into the frame where they fall into one of the slots. The aim of the game is to get four of the same coloured pieces in a row either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Obviously the other player will try to stop this and try their best to block any such movements. It is very entertaining whilst being ...  Read the complete review
