Abducktion - A weirdly Strategic Duck Kidnapping Game, 15-Minutes of Light Strategy of Ducks, a UFO, and Mind-Bending, Shape-Finding Logic!

Best game ever. Seriously though, it's an easy game to learn but it's not boring. It's age friendly but adorable ducks! I wouldn't necessarily go younger than 12 as recommended but other than? Oh yeah!

This is a great game. It's fun for all ages. Even our 8 year old can play it with very little help. It's really great for spatial awareness. The quality is great and the ducks and UFO are so cute. The only issue is that it says it plays in 15-20 minutes but every time we've played, it has been at least twice that amount of time (4-5 players). You can't really strategize much before your turn because you don't know if someone will take the card you are going for so there's quite a bit of time between turns while people work out what they are going to do. I'm guessing it would go much faster with only 2 or 3 players. We haven't tried the expansion yet but it looks like it adds a fun, new element.

This game is spectacularly fun! But don't take the fact that it has a cute spaceship filled with little tiny ducks fool you. Yes, this game is super-fun, and really easy to learn. Children and adults can certainly play it together... but it will take quite a while to master. Strategy, planning, and watching other players are all necessary skills for play. Equally necessary is a great sense of humor. This game produced some wonderful laughter around our table. I loved the little notes on the bottom of each card... and the instruction book was highly entertaining, which made the learning process easy and fun. So, to recap... a super-cute, fun to play, challenging to master, laughter inducing game with DUCKS! I'd say it checks off all the boxes, and then some.

This has become our family's favorite game! The little ducks are so cute, and the UFO Shaker is adorable. The game is quick and easy to learn, and everyone can play. However, there is so much strategy to it that it is also fun for advanced players. The combination of luck and strategy makes it a game that the entire family can play and enjoy.

What a fun game. You hear all the time about how a game is easy to learn, but that's rarely as true as it is for Abducktion. I bought this as a gift for my Wife and it's been so much fun. It's one of those games you can play while you're enjoying your morning coffee.Try it you'll love it

This is a fun game and very aesthetically pleasing. The art work is beautiful and the ducks are fun. The game isn't super easy to play, as like many games, there are a lot of directions to read before understanding how to play. My kids and I love it, but we are a thinking bunch who like a challenge and don't mind a complex game. Santa brought this game for Christmas, and we have played it quite a number of times with a bunch of different family members and friends. Not everyone loves it. It is very complex, there is a bit of set up, and there is a lot of reading especially on understanding what you can do with each action card.The object of the game is to create specified patterns with colored ducks to get points. The person with the most points at the end of the game wins. The game ends when the number of pattern cards you choose to use are completed. A simple concept, and a valid game. The difficulty comes in with moving the ducks into the desired pattern. You pick ducks out of the spaceship (which is super fun and cute!!) to use. Trying to achieve the patterns can be frustrating. My sister hates this game as she didn't like having to think for fun and gets frustrated. My sons love it as does my niece. The downsides of this game are that it is not really interactive and it can be slow as each person has to take what can be a lot of time on their turn to try to get their ducks into the pattern with the most points. Sometimes there is also confusion on how the ducks can be moved using the drawn action card. The game can take a long time and can be slow moving.Despite this, we love this game and continue to play it. It is a great game for people who like patterns, spatial manipulation, and involved, thoughtful games! Plus it is a beautifully put together game with nice artwork and hilarious wording. And also, who doesn't love cute mini ducks!!

Fun game! Well built with quick play. Makes a great gift for anyone who enjoys strategy games. I’m keeping it on my gift giving list.

Such a FUN game for people of a wide age range. A little bit of strategy needed, but definitely not a complex game. The expansion is perfect for adding a couple people and additional challenge.
