Buffalo Games PlingPong Plinko Bounce Board, 2-4 Players, Family Game Night

This popped up when I was looking for more active games. My kids love the ping pong table top we have, so I thought this was would be a hit too. The concept is pretty simple, but can lead to some real fun! You bounce a ping pong ball from the corner of your color and try to get it into someone else’s color cups. If you do and no one else does at the end of each person going twice (a round is one ball for each person and then the second ball for each person and then the cup removal or staging process takes place) that cup is then removed. Do not land in the black center cup because if you do you could end up losing one of your cups and the other players add one of their lost cups back into play. Any player with cups at the end of two rounds with an odd number of balls in that cup loses that cup. If there are an even number of balls that cup stays as do any cups without balls. You can try saving yourself by putting your second ball into the same cup someone else put a ball into, or be saved by dumb luck of someone’s ball ending up in the same cup as the first one. The instructions seem difficult but it’s easy to catch on after playing a round. Even when you think you are out of the game due to not having any cups left, you might get back in with the black cup magic by you getting to add cups (and everyone else that did not get their ball into the black) back on the lowest space. The grid also has different heights of cups which add to the complexity. The last person with cups on their grid wins. It is a more active game than a board game or card game which my youngest likes.

Once I got it figured out it is a whole lot of fun. We played it on top of the pool table, so the balls don’t roll off very far.

This looked like fun as soon as I saw it, so I just had to get it. SOOOO HAPPY!! My hubby and I have played it every night since we got it. It's super easy to play. The scoring is clever. It's also challenging as the cups are removed leaving only a few to shoot at. It keeps our interest. We look forward to playing it with the grandkids. Or even with our adult family and friends...it could easily become a fun drinking game. I would definitely recommend giving this as a gift.

My family and I find this game very fun. I read several reviews that said the instructions are too complicated, which is true, so we just follow the rules as described on the back of the box. It is much more simple and fun that way. I deducted one star because the four bases don’t stay together very well. They don’t connect to each other or snap into place so they are frequently coming apart. That’s the only real flaw with the design. Overall, it’s a great game.

I bought this for my nephew to play with his friends. I did not realize how fun it was going to be for our entire family to play from child to grandfather. Everyone got in on the fun including those watching. The person winning the game can change so quickly and I enjoy that even when you get out there is a way back into the game. It keeps everyone engaged as you not truly out until the game is won.

Absolutely love this game! I bought it because I thought it would be fun to play with my friends and my students. I brought it in for my students to play and they absolutely love it and have lots of fun with it. It really creates a lot of fun moments! It doesn't really tell you how to properly put together the bottom piece which I had to look at the picture and guess where it was stationed But I recommend this!! Gives great laughs and it does take a while too

It’s able to be played as a challenging match with older children but even younger ones can join in with help. Lots of fun and laughs!

My wife and I are older, grown kids out of the house. Trying to let you know this is a game for ALL ages. Super fun when played with another couple. Doesn't hurt to have a few drinks when playing! Much laughter!!!

Es excelente, entretenido, divertido, instrucciones claras, se puede jugar entre varios haciendo equipos, los vasitos tienen un excelente tamaño 10/10

My kids love to play this game. Ages are 11 and 13

You feel like a kid when you play it, it’s fun! The only think I didn’t like is some of the cups don’t fit into the holes properly.

Excelente juego. Muy entretenido
