Easy to play with a sneaky challenge
Played with my 7 and 10 year olds. We were all able to pick up the rules pretty quickly. My kids are readers but a gaming non-reader could probably pick up the game pretty easily as all the tokens have images for their actions.The kids thought the game was "sooo easy" at first, until they saw the challenges that could come from the action tokens. Your winning bunny could be swapped at the last second or stuffed so full of food he doesn't move!We all enjoyed playing and once we understood the rules we could do a round pretty quickly, which gives more time for rematches! Even my youngest that can get really frustrated losing or with difficult games told me he really liked this one.

It was okay, easy for family
We play a lot of board games in our house. This is an 8 and up recommendation. My almost 7 year old was perfectly fine with it. Outside of an overlooked strategy. Bit now that we played through the game he was good to go for the next round.This is a 4 player game, that allows you to either slow a rabbit down by feeding it a cake or use the other side of the cake for and action.Each round you get a blind draw of 3 cakes. Then you ha e a board of each rabbit, 5 in all, you choose to either give them a cake or give them an action. The actions are well described in the instructionsEach turn consists of a draw of 3 and a decision on who and how to play each. You can choose to stack the cakes all on 1 rabbit or spread them out, you can choose to use the action side or just place cakes. The cakes go in 1 of the 2 lanes of the rabbit matching the suit. You first draw and place for round 1, we for honesty sake, would then reveal all our boards at once and go around the table placing chips. Now with all adults, could all do it together, yes.After the placement round, next is the movement. Each rabbit will be racing around the outside of the board. First rabbit to the finish line wins the race. The player with the most cakes on the plate of the suit first across wins. Each cake goes on a number starting with 5 and counting down. This is the movement phase when each rabbit will move the number of spaces shown, or not covered. If 5 or more cakes are on 1 rabbit any 1 round it will not move during this phase of the game.Next round the action round. For each cake thar was placed action side up you now starting with spades go in order again and complete each action applied. This is where we found the rabbit could move again potentially if they had a stopwatch action, which moves them 2 spaces. Even if they had 5 cakes preventing them to move round prior. There are shilds block attacks and axes that remove all cakes, and swap place.After this round any cakes left on the board get moved to the plate with rabbits matching suit. This is how you will eventually win.This game goes round after round until a rabbit crosses the line. The player who had the most cakes on the plate of the rabbit who was first across wins.This took us about 45 min with 4 people to play and learn, which involved some trial and error. Now that we have played I would say 20-30 is reasonable game play length depending on how many attacks and or cake stops ther are.The mistake my youngest made was only playing actions each round so he had 0 cakes on any rabbits plates at the end leaving him with no way to win.How would I review it... the game play once we figured it out was easy and quick. The mechanics are a little blah, nothing new or exciting that would make me as an adult want to play this a lot. If this could be a party game with 6-8 players it would be great. For a family game, my wife who is not a big board gamer liked the simplicity, my kids really had fun a d will keep playing.The re playable value of this game is high. It has a random draw and those can impact the game in a major way leaving each game a new experience. This is a good family game, not to difficult to learn, not to complex to keep those that don't like the complexity away and fluid enough where you should never get hung up by one person taking 20 min to decide on a move.Good game, fun.

Simple and unique game, with fun theming
It looks like Wonderland Rush was intended to be a 2-5 player game, then redesigned into a 2-4 player game. The photographs still show 5 players, so I was expecting that; and I wish it had been for 5, because we have a bigger family, and this was one of the attraction points for me.I played with some of my kids, and we enjoyed the Alice in Wonderland theming and the uniqueness of the gameplay. There are 5 rabbits racing around the board to the tea party, but each rabbit can be controlled both positively and/or negatively by each of the players, and you don’t know who will choose to play what on each turn. At the beginning of each round, each player will draft 3 tokens (cakes) from their pile, and place them on any rabbit(s) in their hidden queue, showing either the cake side or the action (effects) side. Then the screens will be removed and the tokens played in corresponding spots in the middle of the board, causing each rabbit to move or act accordingly. The rabbits move in a particular order, beginning with the rabbit of spades. (Some rabbits will have further to travel than others, as every spot on the board counts as a space, and they have different starting places.) If no cakes or effects are played on a rabbit, it will move 5 spaces; but cake slows the rabbit, and the effects can cause all kinds of things to happen (switching places, getting trapped, going further, etc.). When the leading rabbit crosses the finish line, the player who fed that rabbit the largest number of cakes wins the game.We love the artwork and color choices! The game board is very thick and well made, as are the cardboard tokens and player boards. The screens are a flimsier card stock; we all wished they were a bit sturdier.This is a pretty simple game, and was also fast for us to play, especially since learning the game was included in our time. I’m going to guess around 25-30 minutes for actual playtime. Some strategy is involved, but also a fair amount of luck since all players are strategizing creatively and simultaneously. I was hoping it would be a bit more complex with the effects and abstract mechanics. I've considered we could play around with changing the rules to find a more complicated rhythm (more tokens played on each turn, perhaps?), but we haven't tried this yet.Overall, we did all enjoy the game, with the 10 year old player having the most fun. I like that--while it is competitive--it is a silly enough game that no one felt bad about losing. It was up in the air until the first rabbit crossed the finish line.
