The gameplay
Be the first High School Musical boargame player
to complete all of your auditions to get the callback to move ahead to
the next class.
Players work their way through East High, use the interactive music CD or DVD for even more fun... just don't land in detention along the way!
Each player tries to collect six different cast cards as they go from room to room, answering trivia questions and performing hidden talents.
For my children, it was so much fun watching their dad sing along to a song, or watch their Mom pretend to play the drums.
Pros and Cons
The
High School Musical boardgame is entertaining even when it's not your
turn.
It is fun watching your friends and family acting out hidden talents for their auditions, from singing, to ballet and belly dancing. It puts you in a happy mood with nonstop laughing.
Just one con: if you have not seen the movie, you won't know how the characters would play out their audition. This will unbalance the gameplay, especially if some of the children playing the game are familiar with the movie while other players are not.
Boys will probably not enjoy it as much as girls though.
The verdict
We enjoy this game and play it often. It is a lot of fun moving your character from classroom to classroom. It's silly and fun waiting to see what your next audition will be and if you will get the callback to move ahead. A good family game.
