Sorry !

It's funny how things change as you get older isn't it? As a child I used to love Sunday evenings, when after my favourite tea of boiled eggs, soldiers and a large slice of chocolate cake I used to have my mandatory bath and hair wash and then choose a board game to play with my parents before going to bed. My favourite game was Sorry! and until recently I'd forgotten all about it, however, my parents kept most of mine and my brothers favourite toys and games and on a recent visit to their house my 9 year old son came across it in a cupboard and asked to play it - it is now his favourite game too. **WHAT IS SORRY!** Sorry! is a ...  Read the complete review

I love board games and when I was youngerone of my gran's friends had a great one called Sorry. I got the hang of it quickly but could only play it when I went to my gran's friends while staying at my grans who lives 60 miles away. A few years later my gran found the same board game in a shop and bought it for herself. Once again I had to reteach my grandparents how to play it and prove that the moves were real and I wasn't making things up. One day while out shopping with my partner, known on this site as Padfoot, we decided we needed a board game. He wanted Monolpy which is the undisputed king of all board games but I disagreed with the idea as it ...  Read the complete review

This board game has to be one of the simplest idea's really. It doesnt incorporate any awkward rules, or any fancy equipment. Having said that - its still a brilliant game just to pass the time on a bit.

The game is played by up to four people and the playing pieces are in four different colours, each with a start and a home on one side of the playing board. The only real difference between "Sorry" and "Ludo" is that you use cards to ...  Read the complete review

I had a board game called Sorry when I was a youngster and I had always loved playing it. I told my partner about it and he has bought me a new one, as I’m still a big kid at heart, and I still love it! It's based on ludo, with the aim being to get your four men all the way round the board and back home first. The game is played by up to four people and the playing pieces are in four different colours, each with a start and a home on one side of the playing board. The difference is that you use cards to see how many spaces you move, rather than dice. The cards give a wider variety of moves than the traditional dice. They have various numbers ...  Read the complete review

There's no better time of year to bring out the board games than Christmas. Sorry! is another of those fantastic Waddington's games that once you've played once, you don't want to stop. It's suitable for players aged 4 and up (as long as they can count upto 12) and is for 2 - 4 players. This is a fantastic game that incorporates learning with fun - your child will learn to count to 12 easily and is introduced to the concept of subtracting when you pick up that - 4 spaces card. The contents of the game include 4 playing pieces, "Sorry!" cards and the board - hardly anything complicated meaning setup time usually only takes around a ...  Read the complete review
