I'm pretty sure you will find the shortcuts on your way home very tempting to take...BUT get this - the easy and short way home may NOT always be the best to take. You can never tell when an opponent is just waiting to spring a trap on you and send you all the way back to the starting point.

This could be a serious setback! After all, the objective of the game is to have all of the four marbles back home before the others could. With every roll of the die, the players move their marble pieces around the board - and they get to choose whether they would aggravate a fellow player, go for a shortcut (or better yet, super shortcut!), or just slowly BUT steadily slide by on his way home (experience shows this method just doesn't cut it).

With the Aggravation Board Game set, you get everything you need to start aggravating your opponents...AND get aggravated as well. The set includes 24 marbles that players would use, a board game that is 18.5 inches wide and 18.5 inches long, a die, as well as easy and very intuitive instructions. And all of those are good enough for two up to six players...guaranteeing that you will have truckloads of fun for the long hours to come.

I grabbed the Aggravation Board Game for my daughter who is celebrating her eighth birthday. And in a moment's notice, the Aggravation Board Game was the family's favorite game. In some respects, this board game looks very much identical to the board game Sorry. HOWEVER, the board has been built with a more gruelling and difficult terrain. Along with that, unlike the board game Sorry where you can only play with four players maximum, this one allows you to have 6 players join in.

There are a lot of nice stuff about the Aggravation Board Game. BUT what I love most about this game is it's unrivalled unpredictability. Being a good strategist is NOT enough to win this game. You see, you would also need a good dose of luck to get all of your marble pieces back home. You may have the best strategu at your disposal...and it may even put you on the verge of winning. BUT get this - with a single roll of the dice, somebody behind you - yes, even the bottom feeder so to speak, could take over and dominate game...send your pieces back to square one, and ultimately win the game!

Another thing that's a BIG PLUS, in my opinion, is the portability of the Aggravation Board Game. If you go on vacation and you get all bored and tired, all you have to do is draw out the board, the marble pieces, as well as the dice and you are all set to inject some fun and excitement in your boring and dull holiday vacation.

My daughter is now 9 years old. She's been playing the Aggravation Board Game almost everyday for a year now, and her love for the game hasn't faded even a BIT. We love this game and I'm pretty sure you will love it, too!
