Richard Scarry's Busytown: Busy, Busy Airport Game
Fly a cardboard plane around the room and bring back souvenirs from Busytown.
Who it's for
Parents with three-year-olds who love Richard Scarry and want a first game with a little movement built in. Good for a rainy afternoon.
Not for you if…
You want a challenge for anyone over six. It is a gentle picture-matching game with luck of the dice.
Vibe's take
Playful and active, with kids heading off across the room to deliver passengers. There is no pressure to hurry, only fun trips and souvenirs.
About this game
You are a pilot in Busytown. Roll the dice to fill your cardboard plane with Busytown characters, then roll again to drop them off at one of four destinations spread around the room, and grab a souvenir card on the way back to the airport. Whoever has the most souvenirs at the end wins. The game leans on picture matching and imagination, so it is aimed squarely at three-year-olds who love Richard Scarry's busy, crowded drawings. Gentle for adults to join in, and short enough not to wear anyone out.
