Most Fun Ever
You can play this game right out of the box without having to read several pages of instructions. It is so simple even my 4-year old grandson can play it, but adults love it because there are unlimited strategies for getting all your pieces in play and every game is different. It is just so much fun and I recommend it to everyone. It is a perfect gift too. Best game I've ever played.

Great for the whole Family
My daugher requested this for her 7th birthday. She started playing this game with her grandparents. Very education and fun for the whole family.

Blokus - a game for the whole family!
We all play this game - even my preschooler - and have a blast. It can be played by two players, but all four colors need to be played so each person takes two colors. My kids don't like this much, but it goes okay for older kids and adults. Overall I recommend this game for anyone, especially people who love puzzles.

"Travel" Blokus good game for two players
I love this game. I wish my kids liked it more -- they do like it but not as much as I do.

We had the original Blokus for several months and enjoyed it quite a bit, but you really need four players, and it was rare we had exactly that many wishing to play. You can play with fewer but only if one or more players plays two colors. The original doesn't work at all if you just leave one of the colors out.

So Travel Blokus was a great addition -- it only has two colors and therefore can be played by just two people.

So we have both -- the original for full family fun, and travel Blokus for when I can only talk ONE of my children into playing this with me.

I will add that if you are a Blokus Master you will find that you need to retune your strategies for this game. The smaller board and fewer colors requires a different approach if you want to CRUSH YOUR OPPONENT. Or, you know, be able to defend yourself against a whiz-kid 8 year old.

Great buy!
This is by far an amazing product. My whole family, including 8 and 6 year old kids, love it. We introduced the game to our friends and they too were hooked.
I highly recommend this product to anyone!
