 AddictiveApr 23, 2009
By LoriAnnR
I purchased 5 of these units for Christmas gifts in 2008 and every recipient absolutely loved it. I found that you need to play it several times to actually understand the little nuances that may be a bit different from how you actually play the card game. For example, the electronic game only allows a player to be skipped one time per phase, which differs from how my family and I always played the traditional card game. It also took me several hands to figure out how I would know if another play picked up my discard (the discard pile blinks a few times). All in all, these games were very well received and I have to admit, it is rather funny to visit my family now and typically see at least one person using the hand held game playing a quick game of Phase10. The game is sizeable enough to see the screen well (and it also has a feature to light up the display screen). But it also is small enough to fit in a coat pocket or purse very easily. The volume can be turned down or off and the brightness of the screen can be adjusted. You can select between 2 to 4 players. Another nice feature is that you can select the "quick" version that allows you to select how many phases you would like to play if you don't have time for all 10 phases. The game also appears fairly durable and although batteries need changed after a few months with heavy use (the screen will get light when this occurs), none of the recipients have had any problems. This game has been a great way to decompress for a few minutes at the end of a long day.

 Pretty fun game but could have been better.Mar 13, 2010
By Darcie B
I had a little trouble at the beginning with the "draw" area not functioning but it seems to be ok now. There is a 'reset' button on the back. The screen could have been larger for easier viewing. The light is helpful for the dark but there is nothing you can do about sunlight, it's very difficult to see it in sunlight. I like the automatic shut off to save the batteries and the self storing "stylist" that you use to play. The game is pretty much like the card game except a player can only be "skipped" once in each phase, this may be an actual rule but we play that a skip card can be used on anyone and as many times as you want. It's a fun game.
3/28/10 (UPDATE)
I have had this about 2 months, the "Draw" area does not work most of the time. I guess this is not very durable.
12/28/10 (UPDATE)
The "draw" place that you must touch finally completely stopped working. I found this in a drawer and had not been played for awhile, after reaquainting myself with the game, purchased another one and I have had no problems with it at all. Maybe the first one was a "lemon".
12/17/11 (UPDATE)
The second game that I purchased is still working great, no problems at all and it's been a year. The first one was apparently a LEMON.

Great handheld gameJan 13, 2009
By C. SCHMIDT
If you like the card game, playing rummy, or tired of play solitaire you should like this.
The handheld game is setup for one human vs. 1, 2 or 3 computer opponents.
You can play Classic (play all the way to Phase 10) or to a certain phase number.
It took around an hour to finish a classic game of Phase 10 w/ 3 computer opponents. Great for road trips.

One of the favorite things I own!Jun 21, 2011
By Louise Pledge
"Library Lou"
I'm a little embarrassed to tell you how much I use this. The first time was on a flight from London to Salt Lake City. I hate that long flight & always have to drug myself to survive (I'm very claustrophobic). I decided to try this little game that I had recently purchased, and it kept me enamored for almost the whole flight. I didn't take one single drug (not even Dramamine for motion sickness)! The flight is over 10 hrs long, and I couldn't believe that I played a silly little game all that time!
I no longer think of it as a silly little game; it's almost attached to my body at all times :) I've always had trouble going to sleep at night (since my infancy); I tend to lie there & tell myself that I HAVE to go to sleep, then I can't. I have found that if I pick up this game & play it in bed, I will fall asleep in the middle of a game without even realizing it. This morning I woke up with the little stylus still in my hand!
If I have to have a scary medical procedure done, I ask to take my game in with me. They've been pretty good to let me (although they probably talk about me after I'm gone). When they're ready to start or give me my knock-out shot, then I turn it off, and they either take it or place it on the bed next to me. I can't tell you how much it relaxes me, because I tend to panic big time.
Well, have I convinced you yet that you need to have one? :) Actually, if you're not a game person, you might not even like it, but if you enjoy games, I'm sure you'll love it!

Time travel device (Next thing you know, 2 hours have passed)Aug 14, 2009
By Just my opinion
I was so glad to see that this is an actual card game. I picked this up one day a few months ago since the Solitaire and Yahtzee were getting a little repetitive. I was hooked! It's great fun. The 10 phases keeps it from getting repetitive. Our family likes to play table games and this will be a fun addition.
