There is not much they need to know before starting the game. This game is based on the ability to mentally organize four categories and is quick and easy to learn, without waiting turns and without many rules to learn.
Our 4-year-old plays right along with the rest of us. Our family loves this game more than any other game we've played together.
Usually games that young children can realistically play and win are based on chance and don't involve much thinking. It is an engaging exercise in pattern matching that provides equal footing for players of all ages (ages 4-5 and up).
Our seven-year old can win this game against her elders without any "special rules" or other such condescensions. These features also make it very easy to play with people who have never played it before.
(Hint: study the examples on the box to jump-start your understanding).An excellent game, just excellent.
At first this game seemed a little confusing to play, but once we figured out what a "set" was, it was AWESOME. It does get frustrating at times, since the sets are not always easy to see.then again, thats the fun of it. My 15 year old daughter seems to have a good eye for the sets and beats us everytime. Def a lot of fun for the whole family.all ages.
Our adult friends LOVE this game and encouraged me to buy it for my kids for Christmas. It has been played 2 times and that has been by me and a couple of my children. Our kids do not choose to play this game. It is great and gets you to thinking.
I bought this for my 7 year old and she took one look at it and said- we have that at school. It is a great way to take a break from the daily grind. I would describe this when played alone as more of a puzzle rather than a game. I ended up using it myself and am addicted. The NYtimes.com has a free online version which they change daily. It is a great way to mix fun and using your brain at the same time.
This game is great fun for the whole family. The more you play, the better (quicker) you can pick out sets, but what we really like is that there is no particular advantage based on age or size. We play as a family and my 9 year old daughter has just as much opportunity and likelihood to win as I do.The more often you play, you will develop an advantage over those who play less frequently.This game is fun and challenging for everyone.
