HABA Monza - Car Racing Games & Beginner's Board Game, Engaging Family Games for Kids and Adults Ages 5+ (Made in Germany)

5 year old grandson loves this game, well made.

My 4yo has so much fun playing this game with us! She likes blocking us on the race track, and it’s awesome to see her thinking strategically!In general, we absolutely love the HABA games.

This is such a fun game! My husband and I got it to play with our 6 year old son. The mechanics are a lot like a simplified version of Rallyman GT (which we have and already love!). It's simple to play and easy to understand. Highly recommend for the race car enthusiasts in your life!

The media could not be loaded. This is a fun board game to play with your 3 to 6 year old children that will exercise their mind a little as well. Older siblings and parents in the family will enjoy playing the game with them.Players roll 6 dice with faces of different colors. They use these colors to move forward on the colored race track. The track has three lanes with colored spaces on them. Players have to figure out how to use their 6 dice colors to move ahead on the track, switching lanes back and forth as needed. The track has spaces with wrecked tires on them which have to navigated around along the way. Players can land on each other's cars and push them back a space. There are tire wreck spaces on the track which need to be navigated around. The first person across the finish line might be the winner. I say "might" because the rules say that each of the other players get one more roll after the first player to cross the finish line. If another player can cross the finish line with less moves than the first person used then they can win instead.Both my children, 5 and 8, enjoy playing this game together. I enjoy playing it with them as well.The pieces are nice and sturdy wooden race cars and dice. The pieces will definitely stand up to classroom use. The board is nice thick cardboard. The game is very colorful, attractive, and cute. As you can see in the video, the whole game is smaller than board games usually are. This is very nice because it takes up less space on a shelf.This is a great game to practice colors with young children. Figuring out which order to use the rolled dice takes a nice amount of forward thinking strategy on the part of the children as well. If they choose a less than optimal order they won't move as far. It is a much superior color matching game to the old standard Candy Land due to the fact that Candy Land has no strategic thought in its gameplay. I'd definitely recommend this game to my fellow educators and parents over that one .

This is a great intro strategy game. It is simple, but fun. Roll the dice, use all six colors to advance your card the farthest and provide yourself the best options in future rolls (often you can take multiple different routes, and so it teaches planning), and finish first to win!The cars are well made wooden pieces, but small, the dice are nice and made of wood, but the board screams cheap. For 25 dollars, I expected more. The board is the same material I have seen used in 5 dollar games and is a massive letdown as it should be more in the 15 dollar range. I would say the game value isn't there, if it wasn't so fun to play. Even with the cheapness factored in, I am still glad I bought it because it has a lot of replay value.

Monza is a fantastic game that’s both fun and easy to pick up. It introduces great pattern recognition and simple strategy for young kids. Our 4-year-old loves it, and it’s actually enjoyable for adults to play along too. A great way to get little ones into board games!

Game that practices thinking ahead!

Great game. Lots of fun
