Great Fun a quick game that all the family can play
Noisy but fun. Easy enough for my 5 year old grandson to set up and play on his own and great fun to play as a family. It is rather nerve wracking trying to get the little bones out with the special tweezer type tool but that is half the fun. You have to pick a card which instructs the player to take from one to three bones of a particular colour from the dogs bowl while Buster is asleep. Beware, sometimes he just stops snoring other times he leaps out barking. Hilarious, a great buy and a very happy little boy as this was the one game he really wanted and it has not disappointed

Brilliant! Not for the faint-hearted.
Note: Please turn the volume down if you're watching the video. The short clip shows us screaming when daddy loses. We'd been playing it for a while, but we were just as scared of this dog now as we were the first time. Our kids love this game even though they're terrified of the dog. The instructions were pretty straightforward, except they didn't mention one thing. After you insert the batteries and slide the white hinges through the grooves inside the dog's legs, you're supposed to position the dog flat, pushing him back, until you hear him snoring. Also, use new batteries, because it simply will not work otherwise.

Hilarious and actually quite scary....in a good way!
I initially bought this game in Hamleys for my niece and nephew for Christmas. However, it didn't work and was a real let down as I couldn't get back to London to return it in time. Nevertheless, it still seemed fun, so I bought another version on line (hoping that at least if it was also faulty it would be easier to return). Thankfully it wasn't faulty. It has provided hours of fun. You need a bit of care setting it up but once its up and going, this is a game you can leave kids playing on their own for ages. Be warned though - Buster really is quite scary if he catches you nicking his bones! He really does give everyone, adults included quite a shock when he wakes up. Don't forget to buy batteries with it. Save for the Hamleys experience, I'd thoroughly recommend. It ended up being a very popular after Christmas gift!

Makes me jump
My daughter asked for this for xmas got it for around ten pounds on amazon, the cheapest. It is for age 4 and my daughter is 4, the funny thing is you put Buster to sleep roll the dice and whatever colour and number of bones on the dice you have to lift out with cat claws tweezers without waking Buster. Really scary for her and she started crying and ran off. I thought it was hilarious and laughed. Makes me jump every time. Good game though.

Hilarious Game
The most scary game I’ve ever played but made my kids wet themselves laughing at me - Great fun to play will have you in tears of laughter when you wake Buster it’s so unexpected and loud will make you jump out of your chair but it’s the most hilarious game we have ever played I would definitely recommend this game but it’s not for the faint hearted lol

fun for all the family (grandparents included!)
we had so much fun with this game! the kids (aged 3 and 6 loved it) but possibly not as much as the grandparents, who played it extensively! they even made up their own rules to make it more fun! highly recommended for ALL ages! the dog is really very fierce! it's rather like a fierce version of Operation!

So much fun!
Bought this for my 7yo grandson. We play it all the time with my 3yo granddaughter. We love it, it's just hilarious & I jumped every time Buster gets his bones. Don't think we'll ever tire of Busters jumping & barking. Brilliant toy which deserves 5 stars.

Small
Ordered for the grandkids. Arrived in time and looking at the size of the box it seemed ok. Wrapped it and delivered to the kids, joy etched on their little faces. When I say little faces, I mean average, child sized faces. My average child sized Grandkids, proceeded to open the wrapping and box, looks of anticipation gradually changed to looks of bewilderment. Abiding by social distancing norms, I was unable to see for myself what was perplexing my little munchkins, until they began to pull the parts out of the average game sized box. With the aid of a telescope and a little eye strain, I was soon aware of just why they looked disappointed.... we had obviously made the mistake of ordering a game for slightly smaller than average children, Stuart little would have no doubt been made up with it! Some ingenuity and quick thinking was needed. So I returned to amazon to order 3 sets of tweezers and jewellery loupes. With concentration and dexterity, they are now able to play the game. The box even came in handy to pack up the contents of the spare bedroom for a move!

Estuve buscando este juguete, en todos los centros comerciales y tiendas de Juguettos, porque a mi hijo le encantaba, de hecho ya lo escribio en la carta a Papá Noel, y no había manera estaba AGOTADISIMO. Pero encontré, este que es la versión inglesa, pero el juguete es idéntico, solo cambian las letras de la caja. El Juego en español se llama ROCO CROCO. Y tengo que reconocer, que lo compre, con un poco de desconfianza, porque encima en este juguete, no había ni una sola opinión... Pero, si alguien está buscando este juego, que no se lo piense está genial, en perfecto estado, y es un juego muy divertido.

Das Spiel wurde als Geschenk für ein Kind gekauft. Es kann aber auch von den Erwachsenen gespielt werden. Wirklich Super Lustig.
