Customer Reviews

Wow, great family fun
We bought this and have so much fun with it. But it doesn't tell you that you need to read the book before playing (common sense I guess). But so much fun. My son and I actually play against a friend and his mom all the time. Great fun and I recommend it to anyone.

GREAT VALUE
I can't believe how much fun we've had with this game. It's not your typical board game, it gets you up and moving, tieing knots, making paperairplanes, performing feats, and brain challenges. I bought this game as a gift filler and am so happy I did. The boys love that the girls have to say "Boys are Fantastic, Girls are elastic" in order to play.

Enthralling and Educational! What a Great Game... Highly Recommended!
Just when I thought games were getting old and replaced with video games... This one has me and my whole family riveted! What a great, innovative concept that keeps us entertained AND LEARNING for hours on end. Highly recommended!
