Summary: Blokus
Comment: What a terrific learning tool. They play this game for honing math skills in school and the kids absolutely love it!

Customer Rating:
Summary: From classroom to living room
Comment: I originally bought this game for my classroom. The students (16-21) loved it. It was very interesting to see students who were not generally successful with more traditional classroom games thrive with this game.

I am now considering purchasing a second copy of this (and Blokus Trigon) so that I can have a copy at home and at school. It's an excellent addition to your collection.

My only concern is that with such small pieces, they could get lost very easily in my classroom. I was pleased to see what I thought was a very reasonable missing piece policy on the internet. I have not had a single piece go missing, but in the future, I will use plastic bags for my classroom copy of the game to prevent loss.

Summary: It's awesome!
Comment: This game is great! It's a game that can be played with 4 people and different colors. Even though it might be easy to lose some pieces it is still fun.You will find it hard to put the right pieces at the correct time.

Summary: Fun and addicting
Comment: My son received this game as a gift when he was 6 years old, and it still is his favorite game 2 years later. He will actually play against himself to figure out new strategies. My son has played so much at this point that it is impossible to beat him. The game has very clear instructions and it doesn't take long at all to learn how to play. you can play with 2 - 4 players, with more players making it more interesting. The object of the game is to use up as many of your pieces as possible while at the same time blocking your opponents. The pieces are all different shapes which I learned quickly can become challenging. The great thing about this game is that because of the shapes of the pieces it really is different every time you play.

Summary: EXCELLENT
Comment: My 6 year old grandson plays this in school and loves it so much he asked for it for CHRISTMAS. So I bought one for each family that has young kids. Anything that brings a family together, and is educational is is #1 in my book.
