Fun game for all ages
on December 11, 2014
Posted by: Sweetlsl
from Charlotte, NC, United States
We've been playing Skip Bo for years as a family and with friends. I grew up playing board games and card games with my family and have kept the tradition alive with my children. Computers, electronics, and video games are not all evil and we have a ton of all of them but there is a time to disconnect, unplug, and just have fun around the table as a family. We do this often and my children relax and open up when we engage in family game time. I feel like I have their attention. Skip Bo is not hard but it's not easy either! You definitely have to pay attention. It's a fun game and we get a new pack of Skip Bo cards every few years as the old ones wear out from lots of play.
Pros: High quality, Durable, fun, family game
I would recommend this to a friend!

Difficult to Read Wild Cards
on September 21, 2017
Posted by: ErinnM
from Vancouver, BC
This is a classic game the seniors at the nursing home love to play, but the wild Skip-Bo card looks too similar to the back of the card. They have difficulty distinguishing which side is the front vs the back. These are seniors who have played Skip-Bo for many years and prefer the older (unfortunately well worn) decks.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

My family and I have been playing skip-Bo for years. The new green card have come out and I've had to buy 3 new decks in a matter of months my Blue card lasted much longer and I was playing with my nieces and nephews then kids,,,,,now it's my two sisters and I that play and the last two packs I brought started messing up and the cards are just falling apart. I believe you guys need to look in to this these cards are not cheap and I love this game,,,,WHAT HAPPENED

Greatest comeback in Skip Bo history!!!
on December 20, 2017
Posted by: Skip Bo Champ of Dunn NC
from RVA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] On this day, Dec 20, 2017, I completed the greatest comeback in Skip Bo history! I was playing with my wife and her grandmother and my wife had like five cards left in her stockpile while I had about 22 card and left and I came back and won the game! Strategy and guile can win out over a near-perfect hand, just remember to keep your composure and your wits about you no matter then odds against you!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Missing Cards
on May 18, 2013
Posted by: JMayB
I love this game, but yesterday I opened a brand new, unopened set and there are 2 12's missing. There are 18 Skip-Bo cards and 12 each of numbers 1 through 11, as there should be, but only 10 12's. Very disappointing and frustrating.
Pros: Durable
Cons: missing cards
I would recommend this to a friend!

Skipbo
on January 2, 2013
Posted by: Cardlover
from Los Angeles
The product pictured is blue and red. The product received was green and orange! With research, I learned that Mattel changed the colors two years ago. They have a right to do that (though I greatly preferred the older color scheme), BUT they should have changed the picture on their web site to reflect the new colors that would be delivered. I was unable to get an exchange because the warehouse was out of the blue/red combination. The color might not matter to new players, but I was used to the blue/red set and found the wild cards in the newer color scheme to be a bit confusing. This is a great game and I highly recommend it even in the new color scheme. Just beware if you think you are ordering a set identical to one you currently own - the set that will be arriving is a green/orange set, not as pictured online..
Pros: High quality, Durable, nice storage tray, very good value for $
I would recommend this to a friend!

Skip-Bo

Posted by: SueAnn
from Erie, PA
I have played this game for years with my friends (couples). Our adult children have moved with my grandchildren out of town and we stay in touch via computers. But when they come home, we spend quality time playing games. Skip-bo and uno are now our favorites. Matel's delivery was quick.
Pros: High quality, Durable
I would recommend this to a friend!
