Gizmos

Fun game. Easy setup. Doesn't take hours to play. There is a learning curve, but people tend to catch on relatively quickly.

Everything is fine, excelent game.

Love this game. Easy to learn and once it "clicks" it is addicting. One design issue, the energy gets caught when you pick an energy, I have to shake the dispenser on almost every pick.

This is a great game, whether you're playing 2-player or more. It can be difficult for some to keep tabs on the cascading actions they may be able to do, but not terribly so for most. The only criticisms I have to offer is that the cardboard surround for the marble pool is less than ideal to work with....and the amount of included marbles is worrisome for any games where you have 1-2 people with high marble caps and multiple effects of pulling from the pool in some way.

We love engine building games where each time you play can be completely different than the last, depending on your chosen strategy. This one did not disappoint. It “takes a minute” to sort through the multitude of special actions, but the basic premise of the game is very simple. The more you play, the better you learn to strategize to build gizmos with better chain reactions. It’s a very inclusive game because everyone can play at their own level and still have fun. Although there is a winner at the end, most of the true reward is in the game play itself. If you like this game, make sure to give Wingspan a try. We fell in love with it, which led us to Gizmos. Even our college kids ask to play both of these whenever they are home.

We are a family that LOVES games. This has quickly become a favorite for us. We play with kids as young as 8 all the way up to teens and they all have fun.

Really fun game but not for beginners.

The game is great. It lack a bit on the chaining explanation, but you may check youtube for that. What had me give it a 4 stars is that there is no counter to end game. You have to manually calculate it during turns and check if it triggers.
