(More customer reviews)We got this for our 6 year old but it is too hard for her. I think our 10 year old will like it more, if we can get her to try it.
I love how the game is self-contained- the game board serves as the case. So it would be good for travelling and easy to store. All of the components are very well made.
My only complaint are the cryptic instructions. My wife gave up on figuring out how to play so I gave it a chance. It took me almost an hour. We both have college degrees, so it's not like we're lacking in the brain department.
Overall the rules are simple; here are some clues that would have saved us some time...
-The pieces are only numbered for the sake of the solution instructions on the back of the cards
-all pieces can jump any way at any time, except diagonally and not when two large pieces end up next to each other
-the solution instructions on the back of the cards say the piece number (1-9, or X), and what direction it should jump, so "1R, XU" means to jump piece 1 to the right, and then jump the red X piece upwards.
