Completely ridiculous. And so much fun
This game is absolutely bonkers – and a lot of fun. It’s beautifully presented – the game comes in a nicely made, rigid storage box that should last well. If I’m being really critical, it is a bit overpackaged, although most of the internal packaging (barring cellulose wrapping around two decks of cards) is made from paper or card. The avocados are really cute: with friendly, smiling faces and slightly bugging eyes. There are decent elements of realism too: the avocado halves are pretty much the right size for a real avocado, and one half has the stone in it, whilst the other has a hole. The two would fit together neatly, were it not for their eyes! The avocados are designed to be thrown at other players: they’re made from coated foam and are soft, squishy, and completely safe. Far less sting-y than ball pit play balls can be!The game itself is total pandemonium, in which pretty much everything you know and expect from the structuring a board/card game… gets thrown out the window. Dealing is haphazard, as is game play. The rule booklet encourages you to watch a video instead of reading the rules. There are no clear turns. The game is designed to create a mess of cards dumped in other players’ draw pots, instead of neat, structured piles. It’s fast, furious, hilarious… and you get to repeatedly throw squishy toy avocados at people. Loved it!There’s a clever bit of marketing involved, too. The game is a sequel to ‘Throw Throw Burrito’, and includes an add-on extension game that can only be played in conjunction with the burrito game. The manufacturers make this hard to ignore: there’s a paper envelope of cards that you’re instructed NOT to open as it contains an expansion that can only be used in combination with ‘Throw, throw burritio’. I’m contrary enough to have followed the instructions here, and have not opened the envelope. At time of writing, we do not own ‘Throw, throw burrito’ – and unless one of our friends owns a set we can borrow, I think it’s safe to say that by Christmas we will have invested in the original game, because I think this will be a lot of fun if a family Christmas is back on the cards in 2021.

Simple, fast paced, chaotic fun for all ages & a legit reason to throw things at your children
This review is based on two adults and two 12 yr olds playing - we found the rules easy to pick up after a couple of read throughs of the instructions. It's a bit like a fast paced game of "go fish" with added chaos. Everyone enjoyed the game - including the adult who'd had to have their arm twisted to join in. There were soon shrieks of laughter from everyone as the shouts of "burrito war!" etc went out and we scrambled to hurl our missiles at each other (very soft, don't hurt) and dive for cover. The games don't last long so you don't have to commit to hours if you don't feel like it, but equally you can keep playing for as long as the fun lasts. If you don't want an opportunity to throw things at your family without reproach, this probably isn't for you. If you like a laugh, it probably is.

Fun game but you need space.
After having exploding kittens for over year I got this one by the same maker for my teenagers. Its a fun game to play in a group but you need space to play.

Great family game
Bought this for a Christmas present for my daughter. We had a great laugh lobbing the burritos at each other. Definitely makes you giggle as it’s just so random.

Difficult to play in small rooms
Nice game, I bought it to play with my partner and friends. I found it difficult to learn and difficult to play in small rooms. Avocados quite soft.

The game is simple and a lot of fun. We played it with our kids and we laughed so hard. It is fast paced and everybody plays at one time, so no need to take turns. We really enjoyed playing.

A Guacamole of Laughter and Bruised Egos
This game is like if dodgeball and a card game had a baby, then decided to feed that baby a steady diet of caffeine and chaos.The premise is simple: collect matching sets of cards faster than your opponents while simultaneously ducking, dodging, and throwing squishy airborne avocados. Sounds easy, right? Wrong. This game is a minefield of flying fruit and bruised egos.The first thing you'll notice is the quality of the avocados. They're squishy, they're cute, and they fly through the air with the greatest of ease. But don't let their adorable exterior fool you. These things are weapons of mass distraction. One minute you're focused on your cards, the next you're taking a squishy avocado to the face. It's like a food fight and a strategy game all rolled into one.The gameplay is fast and furious. You've got to have the reflexes of a cat and the strategic mind of a chess grandmaster. One wrong move and you're getting pelted with an avocado. But land a successful hit and you'll be the toast of the table. It's a game of high risk, high reward, and high hilarity.But be warned, this game is not for the faint of heart. It's a battlefield out there. I've seen friendships tested, family members turned rivals, and quiet evenings turned into all-out avocado wars. It's a game that demands your attention, your dedication, and occasionally, your dignity.In conclusion, "Throw Avocado" is a riotous romp of a game that's guaranteed to liven up any party. It's a game of skill, strategy, and the occasional airborne avocado. So if you're ready to embrace the chaos, grab a copy of "Throw Avocado". Just remember to duck.

Divertidísimo
Juego de cartas con aguacates arrojadizos. Que se pueda combinar con Throw Throw Burrito lo hace aún mejor.
