What Rohnye thinks
Hi, I'm Rohnye, an expeerly reviewer and today I'm checking out Haba Monza, a car racing beginner's board game. It's a clever, but simple racing game for kids that sneaks in some thinking skills while keeping things fun. So here's the deal. Six little race cars line up on the start and players roll six dice, each showing different colors. You use those colors to move your car forward, chaining them together to find the best path. It's all about recognizing colors and thinking ahead, which is great for younger players. Plus, a full race takes just five to 10 minutes, so it's quick and keeps their attention. Now it's definitely meant for younger kids, so older players might outgrow it. And since movement depends on dice rolls, there is a bit of luck involved, which can be frustrating. Overall, it's a fun, light racing game for beginners. Great for kids learning colors and planning moves, but still enjoyable enough for adults to join in too.
