Listed as one of the best dice games in the world! Small, compact, and everything you need is inside. Great for teaching math skills.
In addition to entertaining your kids, Farkel also polishes math skills for impressive learning value! Farkel is a game of numbers. In order to win, players must be able to add quickly and strategize using basic math computation. Your kids will never know they're improving their math skills. They will just enjoy the competition and the fun of winning!
Pocket Farkel is an exciting, fast-moving, on-the-edge-of-your-seat, high-score dice game for the whole family and is played with two or more players. It takes about two minutes to learn, and luck, guts and strategy to win. The game is packaged in a container just 2 high and can be taken everywhere.
Colors may vary. Dice color matches the label.
As one of the top online toy retailers, we have access to unprecendented quantities of product review data. One of the key ways that we use this data is by associating our products to the specific ages and genders of the kids who are playing with them. Whereas most retailers must rely upon manufacturer suggested ages (i.e. 3+), we take actual customer usage and share it with you here so that you can choose the perfect toy or game.
But how does this help me? You can use these graphs as a general measure of it's appropriateness for a given age and gender. While this information is generally accurate, it should not be used as an absolute answer. For instance, many dinosaur toys are purchased for boys, however, that doesn't mean that it's inappropriate for a girl who happens to like dinosaurs.

NOTE: The orange color in the charts above indicate ages that are LESS than the manufacturer suggested age. Please purchase at your discretion if your child is younger than 5 years of age.

Truly pocket size...!

Pocket Farkel really is small enough to fit in a pocket, and maybe even get lost -- the game is so tiny. While the container's truly unique in its size (about the size of a 35mm film canister), as the dice are small, perhaps this is not the greatest idea for very young children. Otherwise, it's a fun, addictive game...!

We bought a Farkel Game in Texas years ago on a trip. Everyone in the family loved it and played it often, especially when traveling by air as it is so small, easy to take along and whip out while waiting in terminals. Our 2-year-old lost one of the dice recently (she loved rattling the container) and we decided to buy a back up. Great game for all ages.

We really like pocket farkel. We play the game frequently and it is nice and small to take with us to restaurants. My younger kids use it to play a version of math dice with it. My son is learning how to add and subtract his numbers and he's not in kindergarten yet all from using this game. They like the various colors, my daughter got a set in purple and my son has a set in yellow. This could be the reason they play with it more as they like it better than white dice. It is small enough to keep in the kitchen drawer without taking up too much room.

The amount of play value doesn't reflect the fun we have had with this game. We have used this game for years and when I see them I always pick up a couple to give as little gifts. My aunt, 80 something at the time, (she's 97 now) introduced us to the game and we have enjoyed and shared it ever since. The pocket version is great to tuck into your purse or suitcase to take along. We have a six-pack set for larger groups at home and always keep one in the RV for travel. It's great because the number of players is not limited-- two to however many you can get around the table. Laughter is always involved. I hope others enjoy it as much as we have.
Since there is not a space available below for the special needs response: I used this game as a social skills/reward activity for special needs students at school. They used calculators to add their scores and they needed to learn to accept gracefully if they lost their points. It was a fun way to practice such skills as turn-taking, etc.

This game was introduced to me on a tour. Adults as well as youth enjoyed playing it together. Great ice-breaker!
