    It’s a bit of fun. Kids are always too loud when playing this with their friends… it’s great.

        Worst comment award goes to you - terrible references to make on a comment about kids having fun.

    Great game and great description. Just note this is now matching previous low of $2.99 :-) Always good to support local devs too!

    Awesome game. We've also smashed Blazing Beaks too. Any recommendations for other fun family games?

      Any of the Lego games are always a big hit with the kids!

      Adventure Pals (simultaneous 2 player) is fun and very funny! I think it's a nice little Melbourne developed indie game. Bought it last time it was booked in OzB!

      I have this too! Crazy multiplayer fun! My kids and me love it! Don't play with sore losers though!

        Super Mario 3D World is the best family couch co op game of all time.

        Rayman Origins
        Rayman Legends
        Ultimate Chicken Horse
        Gang beasts
        And this one, Boomerang Fu

        …are all also great 4 player (or more) games I love to play with my kids and we keep coming back to.

        Human fall flat and the Lego games are great too, but only 2 players per console/PC, so depends how many kids you have. (With Human fall flat, we just use 2 PCs and 2 copies of the game use online to get 4 players in the same level. Endless free fan-made levels).

        With the Lego games, start with a somewhat recent one (last decade or so) from whichever franchise the kids love, like Lego Incredibles, Lego movie 1, Lego Marvel, or Lego Batman 3, as these more recent ones are a bit better (but even the oldest ones are pretty fun).

    Fun party game. Aussie developers.

  • Yep it’s fun and definitely worth grabbing

  • +1

    Echoing everyone else to say what a fun game this is to play with the kids.

    At this price it's a no brainer.

  • +2

    Pretty fun if you have mates over and they all leave but one hangs around later than the others and you've both had plenty to drink.

  • +2

    This is a great game! Usually, pull this out after a few drinks with our couple friends and everyone has a blast!

    Super easy to pick up and the avatars ar cute as hell

  • Great game, shame it doesn't support online multiplayer battle. Also no new maps or items for quite some time.

    1-4 players Screencheat: Unplugged - https://www.dekudeals.com/search?q=Screencheat%3A+Unplugged

    • Screencheat is hilariously fun once you unlock all the weapons/modes.

  • Fantastic couch game for up to 6 people. May need a bigger couch.

  • I play this with my kids and they love it. A few minor arguments when they die easily but a great game.

  • worth every penny!

  • Awesome game, I nabbed it when it was on special last time.

  • Love this game and so do the kids. Even up to 6 players which is great! Get it now!!

  • Grabbed this the last time it was on sale. Awesome for when friends come over.

    Another Aussie multiplayer game that might be good for some game time with the kids is Wrestledunk Sports by Team Fractal Alligator and upto 8 players.
    Doesn't go on sale often.

    Family (9,12) loves this game. Hours of fun. Quick and easy game. And satisfying to kick your kid's butts sometimes!

    • +2

      Sadly, we have to turn off some of the powerups.

      The multiple boomerang and exploding ones. When one kid picks up both of them, it's just game over and rage fits begin!

    Thanks OP!!
    Was about to buy but got this message 🤣
    "This product has already been purchased by you or by another user on the same console."
