Hasbro Gaming Guess Who? Animal Friends Game, Includes 2 Double-Sided Animal Sheets, 2-Player Board Games for Kids, Ages 6+ (Amazon Exclusive)

Great game, so much fun for the kiddo's and adults, alike. This is always a popular game to play and is brought out a lot Bought the kids the regular one last year and followed up with this animal one for more laughs. Lots of fun.

This animal iteration of Guess Who? is SO MUCH BETTER than the regular version with people (or even the pet version)! First off, the animals are all on one durable two-sided card that you slide in to the player sets, instead of traditional Guess Who? where you have to pop out and put in a bunch of tiny picture cards to each individual window (which then constantly fall out and bend under the rough handling of kids) and often have janky windows which take maneuvering to lie down flat. You also don't have to worry about losing/missing pieces. This version is a hit with all of my kids (ages 6 through 13); since I received it they have literally asked to play a round or two every night. It's also way more educational! Instead of just having kids focus on physical features or asking if your card has glasses or whatever, having animals makes for such a better variety of questions! One side is land animals while the other are animals that live in or around large bodies of water. Really try to challenge your kiddos to ask about more than just what the animal looks like; my kids' current favorite opening question for the sea creature side is "Is your animal warm-blooded?" Sometimes they'll ask a question we have to Google for them so we ALL learn something (even the adults), like "Does your animal attack boats or people?" (Belugas have been known to attack boats, but don't go after people) or "Does your animal have babies not eggs?" (which turned into a fascinating chat about viviparity). My kids have learned not just about the five common classifications of animals, but about where they live ("Could you find them on a safari?"); what they eat; how to tell if an animal is a vertebrate; distinguishing features like fins or the names of specific animal parts ("Is your animal's nose called a 'nose'?"); etc. Seriously, this is hands-down the best game I've gotten for my kids in a long time, and they play with each other and love to play with us parents, too! Literally my only negative is that I wish the player sets/gameboards were a little sturdier (maybe an inverse of how they are now, where the fold is stabilized at the bottom kind of like a phone stand. Right now, if one of the kids is holding it and another kid brushes their set or they jiggle it accidently, some of the windows will flip down and they'll get frustrated trying to figure out which ones should be up. It would also be nicer if the back of the board where the question mark outlines are was a little wider for poking a closed window back up (it's way too small for adult-sized fingers if you're trying to help a younger kiddo play).

Kids enjoed the game

My child LOVES animals and this was such a hit. Wish there was more sheets, but this is overall so great!

I picked up the Guess Who Animal Friends game thinking it might be a fun throwback, and it turned out to be a hit with the kids. The gameplay is just like the classic version I remember, asking yes or no questions to narrow down the mystery character, but with a fresh twist. Instead of people, you’re guessing animals, which somehow makes it even more engaging. My niece got really into asking things like “Does it have wings” or “Is it blue,” and watching her logic unfold was half the fun. The double-sided character sheets are a smart touch. One side has land animals, the other water animals, so it doesn’t get stale after a few rounds. The colors are bright and accurate, which makes it easier for kids to spot details and stay focused. There are 48 animals total, which gives plenty of variety without overwhelming younger players. Setup is quick, just snap the sheets into the frame, and the whole thing folds up neatly for travel. We’ve taken it on a road trip and even played it at the airport during a delay. It’s lightweight, easy to pack, and doesn’t require batteries or screens, which is a win in my book. The build feels sturdy too. No flimsy hinges or pieces that bend after a few uses. It’s held up well through repeated play and a few accidental drops. For the price, it’s a great value. You get a game that’s simple, portable, and surprisingly good at sparking curiosity. If you’re looking for something easy to learn, fun to play, and durable enough to last beyond the holidays, this one’s a solid pick. Bonus, it’s a great way to sneak in a little learning while everyone’s laughing.
