Hasbro Gaming Forbidden Bridge

My nieces and nephews always have a blast when I pull this out. Especially the when the idol shakes the bridge and no ones sure who Is and isn't going to fall off. It is also very easy to learn and teach other people which is always a plus.

Great game. It is best for 2 players. I would say ages 6-10 would enjoy it the most.

Forbidden Bridge is an AMAZING game. My family loves it. We have the original but the remake actually has better functionality. I highly recommend. The only thing is that there is a rule that a player MUST be moving towards a jewel. We don’t play by that rule which allows for stealing, which can be a whole other strategy. Great times!

Many childhood fortunes were won and lost playing the original in the early nineties. So I was excited this was being reoffered. While staying faithful, I noticed some welcome changes to the new edition. The idol/bridge mechanic swings more violently than the old (hang on!) which led to more suspense during play. Also, a lot of color and mold changes. Though I prefer the original look of the idol over the new, the coveted jewels you hunt for are now remolded into more colors than before. There is also less initial setup to do, to get your game started faster. We love the reissue.

Loved this game when I was a kid and wanted to share that with my eight year old. The game plays exactly the same only the quality isn't quite the same. My main gripes are 1) there's a ton of slack in the bridge as if it's missing a few planks (there are 13 plank pieces included, seems there should be at least 14), 2) the cardboard base is quite thin and was already showing dents and scraped out of the box just from the factory packaging process, and 3) the plastic suspension bridge will not secure to the plastic posts on either side of the bridge, it will pop off and drop all the player pieces when trying to manipulate the pieces while they're on the bridge. You can see from my picture comparison that the actual height of the bridge posts compared to the marketing pictures is misleading as the actual height is way shorter/stubbier. Our solution has been to slip rubber o-rings)gaskets over the ends to better secure the rope pieces. Also, unless your playing on the floor, or over a contained play mat, these little plastic gems are going to scatter everywhere (the original board game sat in a tray to contain falling pieces). Lastly, and this has more to do with the rules, I think you'll find yourself modifying them anyway to better enjoy the game. For instance, if a player needs two gems to win, and makes their way to their boat, there is really no incentive for the two or three other players to keep playing, since there's nothing anyone can do to stop that winning breakaway, the game is pretty much over, and for the poor kids left playing the pomp of that first river escape is nothing more than a victory lap.

This game us a lot of fun. It's easy to build and the quality is what I expect from top brand. It's fast to set up and learn to get you right in the jewel stealing action!

Exciting and fun. Gameplay doesn’t last an excessive amount of time, so you’re not stuck with it all day.

Great remake of a classic game. Easy for my 6 year old to understand.

La caja y el tablero llegaron ligeramente doblados pero todo esta completamente funcional. Me emociona mucho poder jugarlo

We played this game with our two sons (6 & 8) and they loved it. It's a simple game but that bridge feature is so cool! We all loved it; would definitely play again. Great board game for families with kids.

Le jeu est très amusant et les enfants de 7@9ans se sont beaucoup amusés!

Me recordó a mi infancia, muy bonito.

Este juego es tal cual el que sacó Milton Bradley en los 90. Es impredecible y divertido de jugar así tengas más de 30 años. Nota: el instructivo viene en inglés, ojalá puedan poner uno en español para más compras de este juego.
