Society we are updating our review of this box as of 4/17/18 because we have seen a ton of complaints about orders not being fulfilled with no way to get a hold of anyone at Awesome Pack after an order has been placed. At this time, we recommend that you do not purchase this box. We may choose to reevaluate our score if we see significant changes at the Awesome Pack company.
Overview:
Awesome Pack is a monthly subscription box customized for your family that contains 6 to 8 games, activities and “awesome” items for each child. Every box contains at least one board game suitable for the whole family as well as other fun activities handpicked by their Experts of Awesome based on the age profile of your children (and pets) that you provide during the signup process. You can customize your order even further with a detailed form telling the Awesome Pack team what games you already have so you don’t get repeats. Each box claims to contain hours of family fun and memories all will contain educational items you can do as a family like a science, craft or DIY project.
Honorable Mentions:
Awesome Packs also come customized for adults so you don’t have to worry about receiving a game targeted for littles. Don’t worry! You still get your board game, it will just be targeted to an older player base.
They also offer Awesome Gift Packs where you can send an Awesome Pack as a one time, 3 month, or 1 year gift. Gift recipients also get the customization form so they won’t get repeats either! So fun!

Only Awesome Pack severely drops in it’s awesomeness when they don’t actually ship their product out. Three months in a row I’ve had to contact customer service to track down when my box is going to arrive. Silly me thinks that when it says “January Box” it should actually arrive in January.
Oh no Brenda! Thanks for letting us know your experience. We will try to check into this and will update if we find anything out!
The same thing happened to my wife and I. We would like our money back please. Why does this company not have a phone number?
Hello,
I have been reaching out to the company for a few days now. I have not received my June Awesome pack and have already been charged from my July Awesome pack. Therefore, I have paid close to 100 dollars and received nothing. I tried calling but the phone options go dead when you press a number (no matter what number you push) I am not sure I want to continue since I have not received my box yet. I am very frustrated with the situation. I have attempted to call (Lines go dead), I have emailed twice (no response), and tried Facebook but an automatic message pops up stated no information will be given on Facebook. Why can I not get a response from this company yet they are automatically charging me?
Same problem here! My first box was delayed almost 2 months, and my March 2018 box is still not here as of May 7th 2018. No replies to emails at all. Don’t give these people your money!
Wow, I have had the opposite experience. I ordered a 3 month gift subscription, and then I cancelled after month 4, and then again after month 5, and they just keep sending them! They will not even respond to any emails or messages. Oh yeah, and the price went up. Terrible customer service, not worth the hassle, I will never purchase again.
