TOMY Rumble in The Jungle — Marble Run Family Board Game for Game Night — Fun Board Games for Kids — Ages 5+, Multicolor

The game is a great concept, the execution not so much. Many of the parts don't work properly without tweaking them during the game. I actually would have returned it if my son hadn't loved it so much. It can be pretty frustrating mid game to have to adjust and reattach things as you go.

We could not get the wheel to pick up the ball bearings.

This pops up when you're searching for games similar to Mouse Trap, and at first glance, it seems that is what you're getting. The various pieces are brightly colored, there is a maze of sort for the players to navigate, but Rumble is an absolute nightmare to assemble. The first thing to note is that you have to put the board together entirely before the first game is played, so make sure you don't have your kids eagerly watching you trying to squeeze these plastic pieces together. Maybe we had a bad box, but our pieces weren't exactly precision quality. One piece in particular - the snake - kept losing its peg, forcing us to disassemble the "Wheel of Doom" in order to get the misshapen peg back out and try and hold the snake in place. Despite us following the instructions, we couldn't get the snake tail to line up with the Wheel with any sort of accuracy. The Wheel also dropped marbles randomly outside the palm tree drop zone, and the giraffe would often get stuck, no matter how far back we tilted its head. We set this up on our kitchen table first, and then moved it to the floor thinking that maybe it just wasn't a flat enough surface. This did not correct the errors in the maze's functionality. In the end, it looks like shoddy design. IF the marble run worked as promised, the game would probably be marginally fun, although the "crank" action for the wheel is a little finicky for small hands to navigate, especially since the crank is a hanging monkey. Overall, I do not recommend.

Cute concept, but the pieces do not fit properly on the game board.

I paid for a new item. The package had obviously been opened, possibly used and returned. A couple pieces were missing from the game and random pieces of cut up paper were inside the box.

It doesn't work right. The giraffe head doesn't go down, the bridge doesn't go up, the monkeys don't stay on the wheel, i could go on and on. Plus it's impossible to get the exact number to go up the ladder to end the game.
