As if you haven’t figured it out by now, I love to play games! My latest is the HABA Police Alarm! board game, where cops and robbers race to see if they can outsmart each other!
The robber tries to crack open vaults while the police officer is in hot pursuit. This is the map the robber uses to move from crime scene to crime scene.
In each round, the robber has a set of vault cards and tries to roll the dice repeatedly and quickly to match up the numbers of the vault and crack the code. Crack as many vaults as you dare but keep an eye on the cops. They’re after you!
Using the magnetic field, the police officer drives the police car through the streets as fast as possible to get to the crime scenes, hit the siren, and stop that robber!
It’s a fast and furious game of skill for ages 6 and up! (Note: The game can be played in a simplified version for the younger set.)
Buy It! Police Alarm! would make a wonderful holiday gift and is available for $34.99 through Maukilo.com.
Win It! One lucky reader will win a $25 gift certificate to Maukilo Toys.
