Advantages: Good game.

Disadvantages: none

Sorry is a game that's been around awhile. I remember playing it as a kid and more recently with my nieces and nephews.
Everyone had fun playing this game.

The object of this game is to get all of your tokens from the start position to the home base position,
You do this by picking a card that usually has a number on it (except for "sorry" cards). Each card either tells you to go forward,
backwards with your tokens. There are some special rules, however. You can only start a token with a 1 or a 2,
some numbers can be split between 2 tokens, etc. The fun of this game comes when you get a "sorry" card and can place your token in someone else's spot and send them back to the start position,
saying, "sorry." Just when you think you are close to home base, you could be sent back to start!!

This game is particularly fun because of the surprise element. You never know when you might be bumped back to the starting line.
It is a good game because it involves all the players. When a sorry card is picked, the other players don't know who will be the recipient of the card.
This game is good for 2-4 players and the players can be from about 5 years old to adult. It is a good counting game for preschoolers and it is just plain fun for everyone else.
There is a little bit of strategy to this game (trying to get on a "safe" spot if you can, but mostly it is just luck.

I would recommend this game to all. I think that it is a lot of fun to play and I hope that you will agree.
It is made by Parker brothers and costs about £7.99 from most toy shops.
