Welcome to Wishlist After Dark, folks! We've got a true legend on the table, the Connect 4 Classic Grid from Hasbro Gaming, and it's the perfect gift for kids six and up. With me, Penny Pickwell, who's read every review on the internet, and Sunny, who's been bouncing in that armchair since rehearsal. Hi everyone. And yes, Marty, I've already found the fine print. Hi! I'm so happy, this one's a family game night classic!

Okay, here's how it works. You drop red and yellow discs into the upright grid, and whoever lines up four in a row first wins! And Marty, my favorite part? When it's over, you pull the slider bar and the discs drop right out. Instant rematch! Wait, it clears itself? That's how the listing puts it, anyway. Yep! In the box you get the grid, two legs, the slider bar, twenty-one red discs and twenty-one yellow discs, plus a game guide.

And no batteries needed, folks! Look at that whole list. Picture two kids tearing off the paper, setting it up on the table, and the friendly trash talk starts in about thirty seconds. Buyers are with you, Sunny. Four point eight stars from about seventy-nine thousand Amazon ratings. Seventy-nine thousand? That's a lot of happy game nights! It is. Now, the catch. This is the simple classic version, so if you want extra game modes or a bigger set, look at other editions.

Fair enough. Anything else, Penny? Make sure you're getting the Classic Grid, not a bundle or a two-pack. And it's two players, so everyone else waits their turn. Okay Penny, big moment. What's the score? Marty's an eight point nine, Sunny's an eight point four, and I'm a seven point nine. That's an After Dark Score of eight point four out of ten, number three on our games board, right behind Monopoly Deal.

Buy it. A quick, classic gift for kids six and up and the whole family. The link's on our site and in the description. See you next time, folks!
