Review: Excellent little game. Loads of fun! - This is a great little game. It is small and very few components, so it is portable. It scales well between 2-4 players, and is fun with any number. The game is fast paced, especially once all of the players have a game or two under their belts. It is fun and light, and yet has enough to it to make the games exciting and interesting. Replay-ability is very good, with each game being different from the last. The components are good quality and though the art work is minimal, that feels perfect for this game. Though our kids are all adults, I could see this game being good for kids down to about 8. While the mechanisms are easy, the keeping track and strategy side might be a bit much for kids younger. I highly recommend this game. The size and price packs a big fun punch. This game very quickly and easily became one of my favs. Note: There is a flaw (a very small flaw that in no way should impact getting this game) we found with the game, so I will tell you our workaround to mitigate it. The majority of this game, players are acting at the same time. Shape card gets turned over, players simultaneously marking their cards. The turn aspect involves who turns over the shape card, and who gets to take a couple of actions first. But those actions are only occasional. And there is no good way of tracking who’s turn it is, which is easy to forget since each turn everyone is marking their cards. And we experimented with a turn token being passed, we found that was more work than needed, because knowing who’s turn it is only comes up occasionally. We don’t really care who turns the card over since that doesn’t matter to the game. So what we do is we put initials over the top of the round box of who is the first player for that round. Then, when we get to a place where turn order is important (such as two players completing an island at the same time or who claims a coin trophy first) we can simply use the already played shape cards to count out who’s turn it is. There is never more than 7 in that pile so doing this feels like a lot less work than keeping track of each turn. Hope that helps. Excellent little game. Loads of fun!
Review: Great Polyomino game - unique flip and write - This is a great game. Maybe my favorite accessible for everyone (“welcoming”) polyomino game. I was debating getting this game for about a year, and am super glad I did. While a younger child can play this (6 years old) it may not keep their attention as well as something like Barenpark because you are just filling in the cards - for adults though who like spacial puzzles though, it is a hit. I compare this to Barenpark, which I would have as a comparable game (although I think I like this games mechanics better but both are very fun) because both are great games that are easy to learn (maybe since it’s the same game designer). There are a lot of videos about how to play so I won’t go into that. Pros - the gameplay is intuitive and easy to pick up. Quick and fun, but not so short that it seems a letdown. It will make you want to play it again after you finish. It is creative that you write directly on the cards. The fact that it has individual player score cards instead of a pad is a nice touch. It feels like a bigger game than it is and doesn’t really feel like a flip/roll and write (I really like Cartographers which is another polyomino game, but that feels like a flip and write — this doesn’t which is really cool). The box is small and easy to travel with which is great too. It also works well at any player count, although I like playing with more people. Cons - I wish the card stock was a little thicker. You can draw on them just fine but I am unsure about longevity over time. The markers that come with it are fine, but I wish they had erasers built in. The cardboard organizer is too shallow for the cards which is strange. Lastly, I wish that it played more than 4, as I think it could easily and for this type of game to not do that seems like an oversight - I’m thinking about trying so with more than one set, but you can’t fit 2 sets into one box which is kind of disappointing. This game is really cool. Now, while I do have some cons, I really couldn’t take a star away because the game play is so stellar, and the feeling you get from playing is so rewarding. That really tells you something. Normally I’d have taken a star off for the card stock, markers with no erasers, and a subpar organizer (I understand this helps keep cost low) but this game just works. One of my favorite game designers made another winner, and Pandasaurus Games has another great game.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Could a smart 6 year old play this and would it be fun for them?**
A: I think it would be easy enough to for a 6 year old to play, but whether or not they understand the strategy of it, would be another thing.  At least in my opinion.

**Q: Where can I get replacement markers?**
A: Just about any dry erase marker will work. I’m sure Amazon has some.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LOVE THIS GAME
*by S***B on December 21, 2024*

We play a lot of games. This is a very simple game that is just as fun with 2 players as it is with 4. It's a quick game, and the packaging is small, so it doesn't take up much room in storage. It's a great game to take on trips, camping, to breweries, etc. Very simple, so it's great for kids as well as adults.
