Drone Home is a game mostly meant for children and families. The rules are really easy to understand as you just try to shoot your aliens and get them to stay on the drone. The game can be taught within a minute and outside of very young children I don’t see children having any issues understanding how to play the game. Based on difficulty I see no reason why a kid under eight (the recommended age) couldn’t play the game. I think the main reason for the age recommendation comes from the drone and the components themselves. The aliens are pretty small where young children could swallow them. Then there is the drone which can run into and break things if it isn’t monitored. Younger children might also try to put their hands into the spinning rotors. I don’t see this seriously hurting anyone as they are made of flexible plastic, but I am guessing the age recommendation is more of a safety precaution than anything else. If monitored by adults I think younger children could play the game. Due to its simplicity I can see the game working well for the whole family. For ages 8 years+. Not suitable for children under 36 months due to small parts that may represent a choking hazard. Do not launch the Drone when it is under a light fixture, fan, or any item that could damage the Drone. Do not attempt to catch the drone in flight. The rotating propellors represent a finger entrapment hazard.

Of the 321 products, we discovered that 75 were more expensive and 163 were cheaper than Drone Home Game. Prices from Interplay Games The orange and red player got one of their aliens into the drone before it took off. These two aliens have returned home and are removed from the game. The drone USB charging cable should only be connected to a transformer or power supply compliant with EN IEC 61558-2-7.My recommendation for Drone Home comes down to how interesting you think the game sounds. If the game doesn’t sound all that interesting to you it probably won’t be for you. If you have kids that like these type of games I think they will really enjoy Drone Home. Even if you don’t have kids I think you could enjoy Drone Home if you like these type of games.

More information on quality can be found in this old but still very helpful article from Harvard Business Review. Just by reading how Drone Home is played many people probably already have a pretty good idea of whether they will like the game. The game simply won’t be for everyone. Drone Home is not particularly deep as you just try to launch aliens at the drone until it takes off. That is basically all there is to the game. If that premise doesn’t sound all that interesting or you don’t usually care for children’s/family dexterity games it probably won’t be for you. The first is brand. Looking at the brand of the product is often a really good indicator for judging product quality. For example you’d expect a much higher quality product from a brand known for providing excellent quality than you would from an unknown or even a budget brand.The next step after looking at products in the same category, was to look at products from the same brand, Interplay Games.

If the brand you buy is important to you, our best advice is to spend some time writing up your own list of ideal brands. That way when you come to the point where you’re comparing product options you can filter to only show the products from brands in your list. It is also lightweight enough that it shouldn’t do any damage in your house. We have sprinklers in our ceiling since we live in wildfire country, and I don’t let the kids play with balls and most other airborne objects in the house because I worry about setting them off. But the drone didn’t seem anywhere near heavy enough to set those off. Family Game Night Fun The goal in this game is to get your aliens onto the (drone) space ship so they can fly home. The nerd in my loves the E.T. reference. As the game was designed for children and families it didn’t really surprise me that Drone Home is quite simple to play. The basic premise of the game is to get all three of your aliens home before the other players can. In each round all of the players race to be the first to get their alien on the drone. To do this you press down on the button with enough pressure to launch the alien down the ramp on a straight enough path with the right amount of power that it reaches the center without going too far. This seems kind of simple and in some ways it is. Basically to succeed in the game you need to find the right amount of pressure to apply to the button. Apply too little and the alien won’t make it to the drone. Apply too much though and it won’t stop when it reaches the drone and it will fall out the other side.The first player to successfully return their three aliens to their home will win the game. If two players get rid of their third alien on the same turn the two players will compete in a tie-breaker round. The first tied player to get one of their aliens into the drone and have it take off wins the game. My Thoughts on Drone Home Next up is material. Read through the product description for Drone Home Game to get an understanding of the materials the product is made from. Some materials will obviously be known for delivering better quality item than others. You might also have decided that you’ll only accept a product made from a particular material.

Price is another really important factor for analysing the quality of Drone Home Game vs other products in the Board games category. It’s obvious, but you will need to set your expectations of quality based on your budget and the price of the product you’re looking at, against the price of alternatives. I think this game is perfect for Family Game Night! It’s fast paced! The play feels a lot like playing Hungry Hungry Hippos to me, actually. There is really no advantage to being either older or younger; it’s a pretty even playing field. If you go too fast or hit to hard, the alien won’t make it onto the ship. If you hit too softly, the alien stops short of its goal. The brand of product you buy can vary in importance, from person to person. Some people will of course be much more particular about the brands they will use. Whilst others aren’t interested in the brand and are more interested in the overall quality or price of the product itself. Thankfully Interplay Games is a brand that many customers have grown to love over the years and is very popular for items in the Board games category. Just before we get into the detail of analysing the price of this product, we want to briefly highlight the importance of setting yourself a budget before you spend too much time shopping around for a suitable product. It’s all too often that we get carried away when shopping and find ourselves buying a fantastic product, but probably actually overdelivers on what we need and therefore costs a lot more than we should have spent. So spend a bit of time looking around at the sort of price you can expect to pay for products in the Board games category and use that alongside your own financial situation to set yourself a budget.

Product Overview

Before receiving Drone Home from PlayMonster I have to admit that I was a little skeptical about the components. I can’t say that I expected much from a drone that was included in a game meant for children. You can’t control the drone in any way as it doesn’t include a remote, but I was otherwise impressed with it. The drone generally rises at least a couple feet in the air each time and it actually hovers better than I was expecting. Due to this I would recommend playing the game away from things that are easily breakable as the drone could fly into them before you catch it. The thing that I was most skeptical about was how long the drone would last before it broke. The drone can sometimes crash pretty hard into the table or floor. Once the drone completely wiped out where I was positive that it probably broke, but it survived without any significant damage. I am a little worried that it will break after enough crashes though. For this reason I would probably recommend trying to catch the drone from the bottom after it starts to descend. This is actually really easy to do and should reduce the amount of damage that the drone sustains. The other components are solid as well. Should You Buy Drone Home? Fast-paced family board games are my absolute favorite, especially when they are designed so that age is not an advantage. It’s a simple concept, and every bit as simple to play. Each player has two aliens, who they try to launch over and over until they successfully get their alien on the ship.
