Coin Hopping-Washington DC

I bought this game for my 3rd grade daughter to enhance what she is, or is not, learning at school. She is non - competitive so it wasn't that much fun at first but we made a few tweaks to the directions and now we both love playing. We are planning a trip to DC so after playing this game I think the trip will be even more exciting for her.

The game is clever and it is educational for preteens and teens. The weakness as I see it having played all on one time is that all players are hovering around the WhiteHouse in order to become president. You must be president to win. Too limiting a requirement.

I am going to take my Grandson on a vacation to Washington DC at the end of this month because he studied American History in the 5th Grade. This is a fun game and it was easy to learn. It really gave us a good understanding of the layout of Washington DC before taking the trip.

Not exactly what I expected.

Bought this as a gift. She has only played it once. Apparently, not too much fun.

great

The game all in all was allot of fun and easy to learn! You learn allot about Washington D.C. and how our Government works. The cards and board are wonderfully designed and are very durable, and since you use your own coins you never have to worry about loosing them!This is a great game for all ages and fun to play at all sorts of occasions. If you are looking for something new to play and try this is your ticket to fun.P.S. this is the second game of its series. They have one called Island Hopping which is the same concept but made after the Bahamas, which is the game i started playing first.Trust me give it a chance and you wont be upset!!

I thought this game might be too educational but it is so much fun, we can't stop playing it. We like to play the advanced level, but the simple version is just as good, especially if you have younger players. My kids and their friends really get into it. The strategizing and the sudden changes of fortune really appeal to them. It is also a great introduction to some basic concepts of govenment and politics. I wish they would come out with an online version.
