I think these games will be around forever since they are just so much fun to play. Hasbro Games has added a fun twist to one of their old favorites by incorporating a lovable, box office hero into the timeless game, Operation. They have just released the new Operation Shrek Edition Game and I was fortunate enough to have a chance to review it!
I'm a real fan of the Shrek movies too! I think they are a delightful set of tales that I actually went to the movies to see WITHOUT CHILDREN. It is a great idea from Hasbro Games to finally mesh the classic Operation game with the new classic Shrek characters. How fun is it to replace the original "Moe" looking patient from Operation with Shrek? The maladies that Shrek is suffering from are also a lot more gruesome and fun!
The boring wishbone, broken heart and Adam's apple of the original game have been replaced by toe jam, humongous fungus and ear wax. I guess that's what happens when you live in the swamp! :) All of the rules remain the same, so all that has been updated is the patient and this patient is definitely in need of some medical care! I highly recommend Operation Shrek Edition for your children, ages 6 and over. A steady hand and 2 "AA" batteries are all that's needed for an afternoon of giggles and family fun!
