Editorial Review:

Amazon.co.uk Review:
For an innovative new game that has overtones of the traditional card game "Rummy", try Cranium Zigity. Fast, fun and funky, the game comprises 80 Zigity cards that are made out of clear plastic (not only durable, but wipe-clean!) and an embossed, multi-coloured tin.

There are four "suits" along the usual Cranium lines: "Word Worm", "Data Head", "Creative Cat" and "Star Performer". There are also "Free Cards" that can act as a substitute to any of these suits. The aim of the game is to get rid of your cards first, and you can do this in a combination of ways: using the suits to make "sets", where you build up words of any number of letters, any numbers to the sum of 11, three puzzle images or four musical instruments. Once a set is made, a player can lay down the cards and play moves on. If you can't complete a set, you can play an action card, which might prompt the next player to draw more cards, allow you to dodge a go or bounce play back in the opposite direction.

Full instructions (that fold down to the size of the tin for safe keeping) explain set up and detail all the rules with the help of colour illustrations. They are surprisingly simple and straightforward, and if you read them thoroughly you will be up and running within five to 10 minutes. Players are required to read and add up, so to play at a meaningful pace, players really need to be at least six or seven years old, depending on ability. (The manufacturer recommends the game for ages eight and above). Competent players can complete a game in about 10 minutes, but the only downside of this game is that youngsters will want to play again and again and again … and again!

Players of all ages and ability can play together, and with younger children this is an excellent way to encourage addition and spelling skills, as well as co-operative play, taking turns and—most difficult of all—losing in a sporting way!

Another great game from the makers of the hit party game Cranium, Zigity is made of top-quality materials with good instructions and a great way of storing the game when it's not being played. A great birthday present, travel game or way of passing happy family evenings. --Lucie Naylor




Rating: - Great game to play anytime and anywhere!
My boys 9 and 11 love this game. Doesn't take long to learn and it's a great game to play just anytime and anywhere. Especially when you want a quick game to fill up a bit of spare time. The cards are brilliant and look flashy. Easy to keep clean and they don't crease. Very handy when there's a 2 year old in the house...

Rating: - fun for all ages
came across this game by chance,it is educational for all ages and fun to play, trying to stitch others up and win the game can be fiendish . the game takes about 5 minutes to learn ,once you've done that you can have hours of fun.this game is waterproof so is great for the beach and comes in a handy tin for storage.

Rating: - Great little game!
Zigity is a great little card game which is suitable for all ages - educational for the younger player and fun for adults too! You have to try and get rid of your cards through 4 different methods - spelling, adding, matching sets and making a whole picture. Sounds easy enough, but you can guarantee when you have only got one card left you won't be able to get rid of it!! Ideal as a travel game as it is stored very nicely in a cute little tin and the cards are really cool too! (transparent plastic ... Read More

Rating: - Brilliant family fun!
My 8 year old (and her friends and 5 year old sister) love Cranium Cadoo so decided to buy for 8 yr old stocking without knowing anything about the game. Absolutely brilliant entertainment for both kids and adults - played quite a few games with open hands for us all to get the hang of the games and the rules. 8 year old worked out the game before the adults!! Really well made - comes in neat little tin and cards are plastic so durable. What else can I say?!!

Rating: - ziggity
A good game for all the family,especially when you have kids of different ages as it covers all age groups age 7ish upwards.A little time was needed to get used to the game,but within 2 or 3 games it becomes addictive.It comes in a handy tin box and the cards seem to be almost indestuctable,their made of clear plastic and just wipe clean when you get those all too often spilled drinks!
