Game Play:
The game is challenging. The age range is well suited for 8 and above. My 6 year old was confused by the game. In all honesty, we all were confused by the game. However, it is no fun to have a game all figured out too quickly. Part of the fun was learning how to play. I will admit, it took me a while to “get it” even with the well outlined directions. I had to read it a few times but once I understood it was not difficult. It just took me a bit of time. Playing is fun for your brain. It is the kind of game you play intently but have fun playing at the same time. It is a challenge that is enjoyable. It can be a bit frustrating but it is the kind of frustrating challenge that keeps you coming back for more.
