Magnami Magnetic Chip Game

Magnami is described by Hasbro as a "stacking magnetic chip game" that "encourages children to think on their feet with a fast-paced game of memory and luck." It's also a collectible game, meaning that it comes in a starter set and booster packs with random pieces in each pack.

Players roll a die to determine a starting point for each round. How far a player progresses each round is determined by two things: the uncertainty of magnetic attraction, and the player's memor of what happened in past rounds.

Each Magnami starter game includes 16 magnetic tokens with images on both sides and a six-colored die. Additional tokens will be available in booster packs, with more than 100 unique tokens available in total.

Starter game: $9.99; booster pack: $4.99; folio edition $14.99
