HABA Unicorn Glitterluck Cloud Crystals - A Sparkling Dice Games Competition, Children's Games & Unicorn Gifts for Ages 3+, Made in Germany

This game is a win. I have twin daughters who are five and a son who is 7 and they all love it; it is the game that gets played the most. My son even made a point to tell me “good buy, mom” after he played it for the first time. It is just complicated enough to keep things interesting but simple enough that they can play on their own without help or reminders. The gems, dice, and game board all seem well made. You win if you collect the most gems, and on the back of the game board there is a visual to help kids who can’t yet count 1:1. Great purchase!

I bought this for my great nieces who are 8 and 2. The 2 year old is young for the game BUT we found she loved the pieces and, with encouragement, played for 10 minutes. I believe there are other games she would play as well. We only played 2 of the games so a lot more to experience and we are excited to play them all. The 8 year old obviously loved it! Definitely worth it!

I gave this game to my granddaughter (age 4) and a friend’s granddaughter (age 5) they both love it. The adults who played it with them enjoyed it too. It teaches taking turns, fine motor skills and patience. It’s very well-made of heavy cardboard and wood pieces. All in all a great game!

My kids all get a new game every Christmas and my 6-year old loves Unicorns and I love Haba, so I saw this and bought it right away. The object of the game is to go along the clouds, collecting as many jewels as you can. The unicorn with the most jewels at the end of the game wins. Simple concept...my 4- and 6-year old girls love it, and even my 8-year old son will play it.There are 4 different colors of unicorns...pink, a golden yellow, purple, and a pretty turquoise, all made from wood and are nice and thick, as you would expect from Haba wood. The jewels are a heavier plastic and oddly shaped, so they don't roll, which is nice. It comes with two chunky dice, one blue one with clouds, and one pink one with jewels. The board is a really thick cardboard, like a Melissa and Doug giant puzzle. It comes in three pieces that fit together like a puzzle...one side is the game board and the other side is used to line up your jewels at the end to see who wins.You will roll the cloud die and get a cupcake/muffin, which is a nice way of saying you lose a turn, or you will move 1, 2, or 3 spaces. If you land on an empty cloud, you do nothing. If you land on a cloud at the end of a rainbow, you get to slide over the rainbow. If you land on a gift you give a jewel to another player. And if you land on a cloud with a jewel, you will roll the pink jewel die and collect that many jewels (3 ones, 2 twos, and 1 three).First player to make it to the end gets a bonus of 4 extra jewels and then you wait for the other players to finish.Once everyone has finished you will flip the board over and line up your jewels next to your unicorn. This is a nice touch, as it gives younger kids a nice visual to see who won (who has the longest row of jewels) plus it's more fun that just counting them. :)Overall a very nice little game. I think it will last a long time and my girls will get lots of use out of it. It's nice and quick...is played in about 10 minutes or so, so that's a nice option for shorter attention spans and younger children. My only complaint is the game board is really small and it gets VERY crowded, so I took off a star. You can barely fit one unicorn per cloud, much less 3 or 4 if you have that many players. While I appreciate it that it makes for a more compact game, it makes it really hard when you're playing. I would still buy it again or give it as a gift, though. :)

Such a cute board game for kids who like unicorns. My daughter loves this game we play 2-3 times a day (it's a short game less between 10-15min). It's made of hard carton but is durable. It is a great starter for board games.Just FYI the diamonds are small and a choking hazard, always with adult supervision.

Our four year-old loves this game! We've tried traditional competitive board games and cooperative games, and we find the ones we enjoy the most are the cooperative games by far. We have this and a Busytown cooperative game that we'd also highly recommend. Unicorn Glitterluck is easy to learn and fun to play. Though our daughter is four, I bet a younger child could learn and enjoy it too, especially with a little help. Our daughter is old enough to even play it independently. We have played it several times a week for the past few weeks since getting it, and we haven't lost... so maybe it's a little too easy, but the rules could be modified to make it a little harder. Bottom line - this is a beautiful game (love the wood pieces!) and a sure recipe for family fun!

We played this for this first time yesterday with our 2.5 year old, and really liked it for a number of reasons. It was great for practicing turn-taking. She loved the pink crystals and was super excited whenever she got one (or two or three!). However, it was great for practicing patience, because she didn't get a crystal every time. We also liked the element of sharing that was involved when she landed on a present and had to choose whether to give a crystal to mom or dad...at first she wanted to keep the crystal for herself and not share, but she eventually chose to give crystals to both of us. She loved this game and wanted to play again and again. She also loves Candyland, but this had a lot more going on and we felt it was more helpful for practicing social skills we're trying to encourage.Updated to say that this game has gotten sooo much play in our house. My now 5 and 3 year old love it so much. I am tired of it, but they are not.

My 3- and 4-year-olds love this game. It’s incredibly cute and fairly easy to understand. It feels magical. The many crystals are a challenge to keep track of over time, but overall it’s a good experience.
