hard for young kids to get the "ice" in. hammers flimsy, but then again no one gets beat up by them. Frame 2 parts, fairly flimsy. Fun for 16 mo old to 40+.
 Hammer time! - A Very Exciting GameDec 09, 2009
This is a very exciting game. My kids discovered this game in their Sunday school church. They have been playing with it every week and it is a lot of fun. I can compare the excitement you get when playing Jenga when it is about to fall, you know it is coming except you don't know if it is gonna happen on your turn. This is a classic toy/game, it has been around for many years and it doesn't get old.
The game is set up with blocks of ice in a square frame. You place an ice skater on top of one of the blocks and the players start hammering down one block at a time. The object of the game is not be the player who hammers the last block that will make the ice skater fall down. It is a very simple to set up and likewise very simple game to understand that even a pre-schooler can start playing in no time.
The game is made by Milton Bradley. It is rated for 3 years old and up. It can be rated as 3 year old to 100 because there is really no limit in age to enjoy this toy. Another plus is that this is not a very expensive game.
Good toy for six dollarsNov 28, 2009
My daughter (7) thinks this game is great. I recommend you shop around and buy this for six dollars instead paying a higher price and "free" shipping.

 Fun for kids. For parents? Not so much.Nov 11, 2009
I recently got this at a mass retailer during one of their super sales and I'm very glad I paid way less than list price. I have a feeling I'll be hiding this one from the kids very soon, and if I'd spent more than a few bucks on it then I'd be pretty upset about that.
Here's the issue: my 4-yr-old son and his 5-yr-old friend played with it earlier today for the about ten minutes. They loved it and keep cheering for MORE, MORE, MORE! I put the pieces back together and set it up for them six times... in ten minutes. I have a feeling that if I hadn't put a time limit on it, they'd have wanted to play it all afternoon and, unfortunately, my sanity can't handle that.
The game relies on someone with relatively strong fingers putting all the "ice" blocks in the plastic frame in order to get it set up. This takes about a minute and a half. The game itself takes about 35 seconds. See where I'm going with this?
To its advantage, the game does reinforce taking turns, and it does use hand-eye coordination to keep the little hammer tapping on one single block. There is a bit of strategy involved as well. However, my son and his friend were more interested in smashing in the blocks than trying to keep the skating bear afloat and that kept me one busy "helper". My hopes of pulling out a game to keep them occupied for ten minutes while I cleaned up lunch? Completely dashed. :(
My guess is that once a kid is old enough to set the game up himself, he'd probably be too old to enjoy playing the game.
Hammering is funNov 11, 2009
I rated this game for my 4.5 years old. He loves this game, he thinks hammering down the ice cube is fun. Unfortunately, the mallet is a flimsy cheap plastic rod, it was easily bend and almost broken to two pieces. My son doesn't care, he said he still have one mallet and can share that with us when we play the game. But if that one is broken, too, then we need to find a substitute.
