Mattel's Magic 8 Ball By Alon Alalouf on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
Mattel's magic 8-ball is a thunderstorm invention that was created ages ago, I still remember the first time i haked that magical ball and shouted questions out loud, and was surprised again and again to find out it's surprising answers.
Such simplicity in one little ball, creating bundles of joy, a great gift.
The game is both fate implying, and very informative in cases where questions of "Yes" and "No" are asked from the player, solving life and death decisions and dillemas.
The ball has a little 20-sided dice inside the dark un-clear water, rotating with you're every shake, you just shake, ask a question, and one of the 20 different answers appear after the dice floats up.
Of course, this game is much fun for all ages, though intended for ages 12 - 20 at most.
