The Boom Boom Balloon Game from Spin Master is so much fun! The object of the game is to keep the balloon from popping. Included in the box is the balloon frame, 12 balloons, 10 sticks, a die, and instructions.
To play, you must first easily assemble the balloon frame. Once that’s assembled, you blow up a balloon and place it in the frame, then it’s time to play. The game is recommended for at least 2 players ages 8 and up. My daughter is six, and she was able to play with no problems. It’s a really simple game. The first player rolls the die and has to push in one of the sticks until it clicks. If you roll a three, you’ll have to push in either stick three clicks! You can roll any number between one and three. As you click the sticks into the balloon frame, it starts poking in to the balloon causing it to change it’s shape as the pressure builds up. Players will sit in anticipation, waiting for the big “BOOM!”. There were many times when we thought it would pop, but it didn’t, you just never know.
It was a very exciting game, and kept all of us on the edge of our seats, even those who were just watching! It’s a game that will definitely be enjoyed by both kids and adults and would be a fun game for family game nights. Boom Boom Balloon does not require batteries, which is always a plus! It retails for $19.99
Oh, my! This looks like fun! How exciting…it made me flinch just reading the article, lol.
my daughter would love to have this
I absolutely love Spin Master’s games! They have so many unique ones! This is the first I have seen of this one, but it looks like a blast! It’d make a great gift for my niece, but I’d literally be on the edge of my seat just waiting! LOL!
looks like a lot of fun to play this game! I am sure my boys ages 10 and 8 will love this 🙂
It is very fun! I’m sure your boys will love it!
This looks like something that my boys would enjoy.
There’s just something about a balloon popping that has always scared me and still does to this day! Even though I’m an adult, I just don’t know if I could handle this game- haha. It does look like a great one to have at holiday parties this season, though! 🙂
I know what you mean. I was cringing the whole time, not knowing when it would pop. I think the suspense just adds to the fun!
I love the sound of a balloon popping. Surely, the kids will love that game too. ^_^
These are the kind of games that I used to LOVE when I was a kid. It looks like so much fun!! Probably makes everyone skip a heart beat once it pops, huh? 🙂
this looks like a fun game..my cousin would love this.
I can see the kids would have a fun time with this game. I think I would play it with them if it was just the family. But it friends came over, that’s the time for a room cam because I would want them to close the door so that I didn’t jump 10 feet (o.k. I know that’s an exaggeration) in the air every time the balloon broke.
