Rhino Hero: Super Battle is the mischievous, bigger sibling to HABA’s smash hit, Rhino Hero. Once again, it’s a tower-building dexterity game – but this time it’s more of a scrap to see who can get their own heroic animal to the top of the skyscraper before it tumbles down! Up to four players compete as loveable caped super-creatures: Giraffe Boy, Batguin, Big E the elephant, and, of course, Rhino Hero. All characters start on the ground floor, and together you’re going to build a tower by folding playing cards of various heights and placing structural cardboard roof segments. The winner is the player who is highest up the skyscraper when it eventually falls – providing they weren’t the player to cause said collapse… There’s an element of hand management at play. Each turn you pick a roof card from your hand and that determines which height and how many walls you have to place, (or if you have to add extra hanging monkeys to the tower). Then you balance said roof card on top of the walls. Players start by placing walls on the designated foundation points on the ground, but unlike the solitary vertical tower in Rhino Hero, in Super Battle you’ll end up erecting a unique, skittish, almost L-shaped building. Roof card placed? Now you roll a movement die, and move your character up (or down) that number of storeys. But the rival heroes don’t like being on the same floor as each other! If this occurs they have to ‘battle’, using dice. The hero that moved rolls the red die with even numbers, and the defender rolls the blue die with odd numbers. Highest gets to stay on that floor, while the other has to slink back down a storey. This could, in turn, cause another battle in quite the chain-reaction! (Top tip: roll your dice away from the tower, not towards it – we learned this the hard way). You’ll end your turn by drawing back up to three roof cards in your hand. Players can pick from the two face-up cards, or draw blind from the deck – so there is a touch of strategy involved. HABA have long been experts in creating exciting, fun, learning games for children. Rhino Hero: Super Battle is guaranteed to entertain younger family members, but it translates superbly to competitive adults, too. You’ll screech, wince and cheer throughout every shaky card placement and dice roll-off, no matter your opponents’ age. HABA rightly print on the box that this game can be enjoyed by anyone, aged 5–99, and we thoroughly agree. If you love dexterity classics like Jenga, then Rhino Hero: Super Battle absolutely deserves a spot among your board games collection. Player Count: 3-4 Time: 10-20 Minutes Age: 5+
