Title: nice idea, but falls short
Product review: We bought this pirate game for our 5-year-old son. We don't play with it as intended. It is a "hot potato" type game, with vibration, voices, and finally an explosion at the end...that part is cute. In my opinion though, the plastic is too hard to use as it is supposed to be since play gets faster and faster towards the end of "hot potato". Our kids (ages 7, 5, and 3) were playing it and as it was going off, our 5-year-old threw it towards the 3-year-old and hit her in the head. It could also break something in the house as they whip it away from themselves, trying not to get caught with the bomb at the end of the game. We have since used it as a bomb to hide or set at someone's feet and they laugh about it "going off" as a "gottcha" type game. I would not buy it again.
