Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful game! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What a wonderful game for fans of Super Mario. This was easy to set up, instructions were simple. Not only does my little ones seem to enjoy this the adults have had a blast playing it too. I love that it is a strategic game that can also help the younger ones with motor skills. Of course the figures are the most favorite about the game for my little one. He loves playing pretend with them and I love how detailed they are . Fun, high quality, great value game that I highly recommend. This will not disappoint!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hours of Fun &Giggles!! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids have enjoyed this Mario Blowup shaky tower and it is given them many hours of fun, memories I played with them and we’ve even played as a family all together. It has kept them busy for hours lol It comes with a blow up tower (made out of really great material) each person takes a turn and rolls the dice and it tells you how many characters to add or to take off the tower but you have to be very careful you don’t want to knock it over with your characters!!! It comes with 7 Mario figured that I must say I’m highly impressed with how well made this game is. It is a really simple concept but it’s a lot of fun even for adults to play my husband and I played and we had a blast.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fun Game [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Blow Up Shaky Tower is a fun game for kids. My grandkids really liked how they could try and figure out how to place the figurines so the tower didn't unbalance on their turn. This game is easy to assemble and comes with everything you need to play the game. The tower is well made and sturdy. The kids enjoyed trying to balance their pieces so that their brother or sister would unseat the ball and all the pieces would fall. Has them using strategy. Fun game and recommend for kids to play.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Can't go wrong with Mario [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love Mario and have been playing him since the 64. It's quite fun and interesting how games that we used to (still do) love playing are now turning into table games and not just on the screen. It definitely expands my love for these games and characters to another level. I couldn't wait to share my love of Mario with our kids. I was so excited to play this Mario Shaky Tower game. You roll the dice to see how many characters go on the tower. But make sure you don't shake it or the characters fall. It's so easy to set up and play. The instructions are easy to follow and the characters look awesome. Our kids got so excited while playing. However, I definitely think it is more of a collectors item.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fun Balance Strategy Game! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game is strategic fun! It features a tower with a ball that goes on the top.... and little platforms that you try to balance the Mario characters on... it wobbles, teeters, and eventually tips---and the ball, platforms, characters and all "blow up" (there is more to it, but that is the gist). My family loves the Mario games, so these characters have been a big hit, especially combined with a fun strategic game. It has small parts so it is not for small children who may put them in their mouths, but it is also a game fun for adults to jump into. It has produced a lot of giggles, and it is fun to watch how anxious everyone gets watching the tower teeter. Definitely a fun game that we can recommend.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from It's kind of tricky [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm wondering if maybe we got a defective one because it kind of leans to one side and not easy to use because of that. As soon as we put the ball on top, it tips over or the ball falls instantly so we don't have time to put the characters on the little platforms. I will say that because my kid is younger, he still enjoys the characters themselves and makes his own rules for it but he got frustrated with how the game is supposed to work because it didn't work.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from A little complicated but fun. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took us awhile to figure out how to play this game as the rules are worded slightly odd. We weren’t sure if one player was supposed to keep going until all the pieces were on the tower or if each player took turns putting them on until there were no more and then when there were no more start taking them off. Either way, we worked out some house rules. We did have a slight bit of trouble getting the tower to stay on its base. I kept having to put it back together entirely whenever the ball would fall but it’s not difficult to do. The kids really like the variety of characters and we’ve all deduced that Yoshi is heaviest so beware! All in all, great fun but could have better instructions. We also use these pieces for the Piranha game!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from BLOW UP SHAKY TOWER [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] it is such a fun game perfect for all ages it is an amazing game comes with the tower a dice, a ball and little mario figures. in this game you put the red ball in the center of the tower this helps it to be in motion When you are going to put a figure, if you manage to put the figure without everything falling apart, you are the winner. This makes the game so exciting and different from other board games. Its material is super resistant and fun.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Pretty neat [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Its deff a game/toy kids would enjoy. More of a boredom buster. Id say an older kiddo, may close to 10, would like this, and deff a collector of mario. My kids enjoyed this a lot. They had roughly an hour of fun. Great for, like i said, bore kiddos, but also rainy days, vacations, and as a gift for hard to shop for munchkins. This is also good for hand eye coordination, and motor skills. My 9yo is disabled, and this was perfect.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fun for all ages! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family has a board game night every Saturday! We nornally play a couple different games that evening. We played this game multiple times! My kids loved this so much! They loved being able to pick which characters to put on and take off! Its girl and boy friendly also, which is the best part! Princess peach, Mario, Luigi, and so many more of the popular characters! We love playing Mario, so doing it hands on was even better!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super Mario Shaky Tower [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this game in exchange for my honest review. This game is super fun, easy to assemble and easy to learn. You can play it with the family or alone which is nice. The figurines are very cute and durable and can be used to other creative play when your not playing the game. We enjoy Mario in this household so this was a big hit for us. The tower is little flimsy but overall everything about this game is awesome.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Mario fan approved! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 8 year old son is a huge Mario fan so he was very excited about this game! He played with it for a while but ultimately decided he liked playing with the figures themselves. He said they looked just like the game characters. He thought the game was fun but he struggled to master it but after trying a few times he was able to get it balanced and the characters on it. All in all it was a thumbs up from him!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good for small kids [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, the pieces are so adorable. I love the characters. My son and I played this right away and we tried it on our vinyl floor and it kept falling over before we start playing. We ended up playing on the carpet so it didn’t fall over so easy. You have to get the pieces in perfect before you start so help is needed if young kids are playing. Overall, cute game. Goes quickly so they don’t lose interest.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very entertaining [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super Mario Blow up! Shaky Tower. This Super Mario Game Is a really interesting game. The kids just love it and this keeps them entertained for hours .it comes with a blow up tower , that is made of high quality material and very durable. It withstands a lot of abuse from the kids getting excited while playing .It may be a simple game to play but it is so entertaining, just a roll the dice and it tell you how many figures to either put on or take off the tower . But be careful, if you shake the tower the figures will fall off. This game it entertaining even for adults. It is made of high quality material, that will last for years to come. And comes with 7 different super Mario action figures, die and the blow up tower. I would highly recommend this game to all my family and friends .

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My Boys Love It [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Blow Up Shaky Tower is one big hit in our family. The boys enjoy playing the game, along with other similar games by Epoch Games, but have also suggested how much they enjoy the game just being on display as a conversational piece between friends. The best stated how the game is of quality craftsmanship, and are designed just like the characters the boys have grown to love.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from ok game but meant for younger kids [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Super Mario Blow up Shaky tower game to test. My daughter just started getting into Super Mario, so I thought this would be a cool game for her to play. After we opened the game, she wondered where Peach was? I suppose it makes sense that she would wonder where Peach is since she is a main character. Anyway, I found the game to be easy to setup the first time. However, as we continue to play, it became hard and harder to balance the ball on the stick since it kept dropping when I was resetting the game. It didn’t seem to matter whether I turned the stick to the easy side or not, it kept falling off. Overall, my daughter likes the game and it was fun for her. I like that it kept her entertain and away from her ipad. This is a good game for younger kids to help them with their eye hand coordination.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great game for the whole family. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m not a huge gamer person but my 7 year old son is. I was pleasantly surprised this game was actually really fun and the whole family enjoyed it. I’d definitely say it’s aimed more towards younger children and helps with their hand/eye coordination. It’s made of quality materials and seems it will hold up nicely for awhile. Overall a simple game and pretty fun.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fun Super Mario characters [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I gave it to my 11 year old son and he said it was quick to set up. He liked the castle set up as well as the ghost character and the different toads on it. He was able to set the characters up and balance them on different levels on the castle. He said it was better playing with more people as it makes it more fun seeing who can shake and balance the tower.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Doesn't work [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game was a pain to put together all for it not to even work. It wants you to put the ball on top to start the game but the ball will not sit up there. It's extremely unbalanced to the point where you can't even play the game. A person loses if they make the ball fall but if you can't even get the ball to stay in the first place, there's no way to play.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super fun [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought that this would be a little old for my 4 and 6 years old. Nope! As a family, we had a blast! Five of us played. The tower moves about quite well and it's so nerve wrecking (in a good way) to see who makes the ball fall. It's suspenseful and a great challenge. Take about 5-15 mins to play (depending on the child's age and strategy involved).

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not great [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the concept of this game. And we were all so excited to try it out as we are big Mario fans. However, the ball it comes with is a tad bit too heavy for the game. We tried on different tables, and even the floor and just couldn't get the ball to stay in the tower long enough to even play the game. Very disappointing to the kids for sure.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fun toy that teaches balance [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This “BLOW UP SHAKY TOWER” toy by Epoch Games is a fun way for kids to learn how to balance figures on different sides of the tower. It allows them to choose several locations to keep the tower upright. They always laugh when the tower tumbles down and the ball on top rolls away. The children can set it up by themselves and have hours of fun!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wobble wobble [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tower was a little more difficult to set up per the instructions but once we got it figured out oh man did we have a ton of laughs trying to balance , well anything !!!! The characters are super cute and even cuter flying thru the air as they fling off this wobbly tower. These play set are easy to travel with, fun and a good distraction.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Kids love it [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been a fun game for a quick distraction with the family. My 9 year old son (Nintendo fan) and 7 year old daughter both think it's great. It's a simple concept, you keep moving the characters on and off the tower until it eventually becomes off balance and the ball drops. I’m a fan because it’s fun for just about any age, and doesn’t haver any large time commitment. A game can last one minute, or five, and then you just play again. The only thing I don’t like is that the lava ball that drops is a hard plastic, and if you are playing on a kitchen table it might roll on to the floor. We have a softer wood floor, but I think there is a good chance it would break if it fell on something like tile. I would recommend playing on a coffee table. The character figures are well made, and those alone can entertain a kid if they are Mario fans.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cool toy! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This toy keeps my kids busy for hours! They connect the parts from all their Mario toys and they actually get along while playing it! They have so much fun with it. It seems age appropriate for my 5 and 8 year old. My younger kids still don’t quite get it. Parts are a little small so we keep them on the table so we can contain all the pieces.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So cool! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids have been absolutely LOVING this blow-up shaky tower toy! They are huge fans of Mario and can't get enough of this. It's super interactive and there are hours of fun to be had (thankfully it's summertime and we have the time!). I would recommend this toy to any of those mamas out there with kiddos who need some extra fun this summer!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hours of Fun [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a super cool toy. I like it so much because it combines a little old school board game battle with a bit of new age technology! Very easy to play and to assemble. Kids love this entire line of games. All my kids' friends love them and trade characters between themselves as well. Well worth the money! Definitely recommend.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Ugh [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll start this off by saying.. its a cute and fun idea BUT over all this game isn't fun. Setting it up was frustrating.. then after that trying to even get it to stay put for a second seems Impossible. My daughter and I tried it on multiple surfaces with no avail.. the concept seems so fun but instead we just put it away..

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fun and Easy Game [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My whole family absolutely loves this game. It's super easy to put the tower together. It's absolutely mess free. It's an easy game to play with kids ages 4 and up and fun for the whole family. It teaches patience and concentration. It's got very detailed character pieces and a detailed tower. I highly recommend this game.
