Drone Home -- First Ever Game With a Real, Flying Drone -- Great, Family Fun! -- For 2-4 Players -- Ages 8+

Glad the Drone game was rereleased with a second ring to go around the blades since ours broke from the original one. Definitely doesn't go as high as the first version but still fun!

Was great fun for the whole family

Most games the kids play and get over quickly. Not this one.It keeps the whole family competitively entertained.My only complaint is that the blades break easy. This game is not at all for rowdy, or rough kids. It won't last 1 use.I had to get a replacement because the first one broke. I did notice the first unit flew high and hit the ceiling and would almost "crash land" back to the floor we were forced to play on due to it's high flight.The second (replacement) unit flew appropriately half the height of the first and the battery lasted twice as long. This has led to more fun and no damage.Again, this game is not for uncivilized kids, or those too young to handle items with care.This game is comparable to "hungry hungry hippos" but not really if that makes sense.The drone charges a lot faster with an external wall charger and last abut 19-23 flies before requiring a 20min wall charge.The charging base does not keep up with charging at all during gameplay. The drone WILL due die during use.Not sure if it were dure to the dollar store batteries, but I left the drone on base overnight, and it killed the drone battery. Perhaps I would have gotten better results charging with the base if I didn't use dollar tree batteries, but I will never know. It's free and fast to use a wall charger.Did I mention that this is a waste of money if your kids are prone to breaking things?

Very fun, but read on. This game has 4 arms extending from the base, each of which has a flipper at the end, which you use to flick squarish balls into the center part. If you get it into the "spaceship", it hesitates a few seconds, (which gives other players a chance to knock that ball out with their own before it rises), rises up about 2 feet then comes back down and whoever has gotten their 3 balls up first wins. I thought it was great fun and very creative. I gave it a 4 because the spaceship runs out of charge after about 20 minutes, which was disappointing, and then has to be recharged, interrupting the game. It is best to reach up and easily catch the bottom of the spaceship as it comes down or it comes down and flops all over, hitting players with its plastic rotors whch stings. It comes with 2 extra circular rings which sit above the rotors, so they obviously can be replaced, but I do not know how long they last or how sturdy they are. In the first 5 minutes one kid smashed both hands on the flipper which of course broke it. I figured that was not the manufacturer's fault so I ordered a second one so that we would have extra parts to replace the arm, one of the balls that has disappeared and have 2 spaceships to double the playing time, which would have worked except for the kid who pulled apart one of the spaceships to see how it worked. So if you have those kids that seem to break everything they touch, they may break this quite easily. So, unfortunately you will have to rely on those who don't have those types of kids, or play it with older kids to tell you how sturdy the game is and how long it lasts. We were playing with 6, 8 10 year old boys and an adult which were maybe just too young for it. And the short charge time is irritating.

I would give this game 4 1/2 stars. Fun game and the drone did launch. We have vaulted ceilings thank goodness as it went really high. Might recommend to use sitting on the floor if you have normal height ceilings.. was a great value .. my grandsons loved it ages 10 and 11 💕 only con is I wish the charge would last longer

My husband, 4 year old and I had so much fun playing this. My son loved it, but is definitely a game where supervision is required.I would also be mindful of pets, and how they might react to the drone when it takes off.Easy to assemble and understand instructions. You are able to adjust how low or high the drone will go. I recommend setting it to the lowest setting, then adjust according to the space you are working with.Worth the cost, and will be getting this for a few family members in the future.

My 11yo and I love this game, however our drone battery only lasted two games. We plug it in, it turns green, and now it won’t work at all once placed in the center of game. Reached out to manufacturer as the instructions state, however they said it was discontinued in 2023 and to contact Amazon. We’re returning the first game and the replacement arrives tomorrow. Hoping the replacement game works better than the first. Great concept, but the battery only lasted two games drone, and the two times we used it, needed a charge pretty quickly (7-8 min into the game). Otherwise, it’s great!

Very fun game for the whole family. Works just like they claim. I have a blast playing this with my grand kids.
