PlayMonster Interplay UK GP009 Home, Kids Game with a Real Flying Drone, Various

The aim of the game is to flick your alien into its spaceship before the 3 other competitors succeed at the same objective. You can also continue and flick them out of the ship with your alien and take their place if they are about to win.The drone then lights up and flies upwards which means the alien in the ship wins!The game can last approx 30 seconds per round and takes 10 seconds to reset.Clear up time also takes only 2 minutes.My son requested this game and I wasn't sure about it at first.The thought of a drone in the house, flying off into the ceiling was a recipe for disaster BUT......It's a really fun game that sparks competition and then excitement in kids for when the drone flys off.It also keep the attention of the kids as the game doesn't go on and can be stopped quickly when finished.The drone has an adjuster on it to control the amount of flight (this is adjusted on the bottom with a screwdriver that is even provided)In its full flight height, it doesn't head directly for the ceiling (even when on a table) so you have no need to worry about it smashing into the ceiling and then darting about the room.The drone does need to be charged which doesn't take too long and there is a little light on it to show its complete. When it's low on charge, it also lights up before dying.It requires 4 AAA batteries,Comes with screwdriver,Micro USB cable to recharge the drone,Replacement blade protectors for drone,Most important to me is that is actually fits back in the box neatly after it's played with to be put away.

This is a brilliant game for all the family and perfect for venting your frustrations by knocking each other out of the drone before it takes off. We loved it so much we bought another one for a friend.Only cons are that the fine only lasts for a couple of rounds before it needs charging, and it is very easy to damage, either by crashing it or with over enthusiasm.Saying that, it's still worth every penny.

Fun game but takes ages to charge the drone and doesn’t fly that high. Slightly disappointed.

Great fun for the 6 days it lasted. The top balancing ring on the drone broke within 6 days of 1 charge per day. Very fragile. Can’t seem to find spare parts for sale in the UKUpdate: I contacted customer services in the US (you can buy spare parts on request). They sent a whole new drone as a free replacement. Great customer service.My kid loves this game.

My son had this game for a while, but at some point the space ship rotary elements broke and became very flimsy. The space ship could no longer lift off, so I decided to buy another one. Hesitated between new and used, 'like new' as per price difference. Unfortunately, I've chosen the cheaper option and never thought about checking if it works. I've hidden it from my son, intended to use as one of his birthday gifts. He was very excited when he received it and then very very disappointed when it appeared that it doesn't work. The space ship doesn't lift off, and that is the taking the most fun element away. All parts looked new and I've followed all troubleshooting advice, but still couldn't make it work. Ive missed the return time frame, as I waited with opening the box due to my son's bday. I guess the lesson is - always get the brand new toy, rather than used / open box option, just to avoid possible disappointment down the line.
