Catch the Moon review

Catch the Moon is a delightful stacking game that brings a touch of whimsical fun to game night. The concept is simple: roll the die, place a ladder according to the die's instructions, and try to reach for the moon without causing the entire structure to collapse.

I was immediately drawn to the game's beautiful design, with its charming cloud-shaped base and colorful, wonky ladders. The game feels high quality, with sturdy components and a well-designed box for storage. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, making it a great option for families with young children.

While the game might seem simple at first glance, it quickly becomes surprisingly challenging and engaging. The ladders are not perfectly balanced, adding an element of suspense and unpredictability to each move. You really have to think strategically about where you place your ladder to avoid causing the whole thing to topple.

I've played Catch the Moon with my family, friends, and even at a local game night, and it's consistently been a hit. It's a fun and lighthearted game that brings out the competitive spirit in everyone, even those who typically avoid board games.

The game is best suited for ages 6 and up, but even younger children can participate with adult supervision. My 9-year-old daughter loves it, and it's a great way to get her thinking about balance and spatial reasoning.

If you're looking for a fun, fast-paced, and visually appealing game for your next game night, Catch the Moon is definitely worth checking out. It's a great option for a casual get-together, family game night, or even a more competitive gathering.
