 brill idea, but flawed November 9, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a great idea. The box design and promise of the gameplay is enough to satisfy a die-hard poke-fan. In practice the flaws show up, especially compared to the MB Games original with invented people characters.
The plastic is quite flimsy, and it's tricky to flip up the panels without knocking others over. There are 2 sets of cards, with different Pokemon in each - so in reality half the Pokemon aren't in the game. You could play with 2 sets mixed, as long as you made sure you were guessing from the right set. For the most part, you'll keep one set in... as unlike the MB verison where the cards are clipped permanently in place, these are just slid in and keep dislodging themsleves (they are designed to be switched with the other set of Pokemon).
If you can get over this - as we did, the real flaw of the game is in the difficulty of getting a reliable YES/NO answer from a given question, as there aren't enough firm differences between the pokemon apart from number of legs and type of Pokemon (fire water etc) - they don't have carefully worked out discrete traits that can be easily verified like in the MB version. Also the evolutions of some pokemon, eg Pichu and Pikachu are so similar it is really hard to find anything to clearly separate them. The problem lies in the nature of pokemon themselves. Recommended for real hardcore fans of the pokemon who will obviously overlook these shortcomings without question.

This is a great idea for Pokemon Fans but the poor quality of the boards means the little cards fall out frequently- especially when you put it in and out of the box, and they are fiddly and frustrating to insert.
This meant our 6 year old son lost interest very quickly in it as he felt it was too much hassle every time he wanted to play.

This was bought for our 7 yr old Pokemon fan. We own the MB Games Guess Who along with their Disney version, both loved by our children. However, if you think this will be the same build quality as the MB versions, think again. Smaller, lighter and more flimsy, this is definitely a cheaper feeling and looking product.
Saying that, seeing as MB Games do not make a Guess Who Pokemon version, this "Guess That" game had to do. It is colourful, it uses roughly the same "Guess Who" formula for game play with a little added complexity and is a lot of fun. Just wish the build quality was higher (seeing as it is the slightly more expensive than Guess Who!)
