I'm an adult and I find it quite difficult. Not sure how kids are supposed to play

Fun game. Enjoyed by children ages 5 and 8. I also used a timer to make it a little more challenging.

Got this for my 5 year old granddaughter for Christmas. We had a blast playing it. Brought back memories of when I was little! Great tieless game!

I love the fact that they did not change the basic game. Still looks like it did 50 years ago. So much fun to play with the kids and grandkids of all ages.

Classic board game that can entertain as few as 1 child! I only wish that it wasn't made so cheaply these days. I remember the one that I had as a child was much sturdier and the packaging was made well...not cheapy like they look and feel now.

A mi hijo le gustó, es justo como se describe, esta entretenido pero se debe tener precaución ya que tiene piezas bastante pequeñas...

We love the whole game. I recall playing it as a child but cannot remember "Sam's" nose buzzer being as loud, or the "operating table" vibrating as roughly when the tweezers grazed the metal body cavities! My 4 1/2-year-old granddaughter's first round of effort resulted in her frustration wherein she made a face at Sam when he buzzed loudly then she pinched his nose!!! It was comical. Anyway, we belatedly realized we should have initially omitted the batteries. After two weeks she has reached nearly pro level and now plays with his batteries in place.

This is such a fun game and it’s just as I remember from when I was a child. My 3 year old loves to play with us! But if your child puts things in their mouth I definitely wouldn’t recommend buying it just yet because the pieces are small and easy to lose. It’s an easy game, but requires concentration and patience. Not too loud, and the quality is quite nice. I think it’s a great price, this game is so much fun!

The one in stores says "classic", but that is not‐this is the one we know and love! Still a great game! I take the batteries out for my 4 year old to practice. Nice loud buzz with them in though! The latest edition does not look nearly as pleasant as this original version.

Operation has been a staple in my family for generations, and the latest version is just as much of a blast as ever. It's a classic for a reason, and after countless hours of play (and buzzer-inducing fumbles!), I'm here to give it a resounding 5 stars.What's Not to Love?Simple, yet Addictive Gameplay: The premise is easy to grasp: remove body parts without touching the edges. But mastering it? That's another story. The delicate tweezers and sensitive buzzer keep you on the edge of your seat, making each successful extraction a mini-triumph.Laughs Guaranteed: Whether it's your own clumsy fingers setting off the buzzer or someone's dramatic groan after a near-miss, Operation is a guaranteed laugh riot. It's the perfect game for bringing families and friends together for some lighthearted, competitive fun.Ages Well, Plays Well: This game is timeless! Kids as young as five can enjoy the silly premise and basic mechanics, while older players can appreciate the challenge and precision required. Operation grows with you, providing years of entertainment.Quick Rounds, Easy Setup: A single game of Operation rarely takes more than 10-15 minutes, making it perfect for those short attention spans or when you're just looking for a quick burst of fun. Cleanup is a breeze too, just toss the board back in the box and you're done.Sure, there might be a few minor nitpicks: the plastic body parts can occasionally get stuck, and the batteries do drain somewhat quickly. But in the grand scheme of things, these are barely blips on the radar.Overall:Operation is a classic game that never gets old. It's easy to learn, tons of fun, and provides endless laughs for players of all ages. If you're looking for a game that's guaranteed to bring families and friends together, look no further. Operation is a 5-star winner in my book!Pro Tip: For an extra twist, try playing with your non-dominant hand. Trust me, it's even more hilarious (and frustrating!)So grab your tweezers, steel your nerves, and get ready for some good old-fashioned fun with Operation! You won't regret it.
