Great learning fun
This is so much fun players don't even realize that they are developing spatial perception! Experience doesn't always win. I was beaten by my eight-year-old daughter. We play the game according to the rules, but after we are done. My daughter loves to use the pieces to make colorful patterns on the game board.

This is one of the games used in by my daughter's vision therapy office. They use small box lids to separate the different colored pieces. The trays provided in the game make it very difficult to see each shape individually. I definitely recommend using different trays. That makes it easier to identify the pieces and therefore to have more fun. Enjoy

A great game for all ages!
I recently got this for my boys, and our whole family loved it so much that I ended up getting one for both my step-father and my father-in-law for Father's Day!

Great fun and very different
We have no children in the family, but a child over 10 or so could certainly play it & enjoy it. This game is fun for everyone. No complicated rules, so friends who have never seen it can play it, but it is also continuously challenging.

Blokus is a strategy game
This game is fun for adults because it is a strategy game. But it is also fun for kids because of the pretty colored tiles and the challenge of trying to find a place spacially to put a tile. You can only put your tile down where it touches a corner of one of your previous tiles. You can not touch your own tiles edge to edge. My son just turned six years old and he's getting pretty good at the game. He doesn't yet understand how to block another player but that will come with time.

Destined to be a Classic
I'm a mathematics teacher and game lover. This game teaches involves logic and spatial visualization and is a lot of fun, especially with several players. It's appropriate for people of six years and up. Board games unite families and friends, and this is one of the best. Enjoy!
