RavensburgerThinkFun Amaze

Les encanta y los tiene entretenidos

No viene instrucciones en español y me parece muy aburrido el juego comparado con otros de esta marca

Let me first tell you what it is NOT. It is NOT cheaply made, not stupid, not boring, not impossible to solve on the simplest setting.It is quiet - very nice for nap times, office waiting hours, car rides, restaurants - anything. It is one piece - the plastic pen-stick is connected to the body. It has four sliding sections - each section has a different number of red gates randomly located to create random blocking. You CAN and you WILL slide them to allow you to move through the puzzle. But you can only slide them one step to the left or one step to the right. and sometimes you cannot slide because you are stuck. So you will go back. Say what?? what kind of puzzle is this? You will move forward AND backward, up AND down the board. Since you have 4 slides - it gives you 16 different setting for a starting setting/position (if you remember your theory of probability class). We tried one and two so far. It was NOT EASY - but it is the fun of challenge and uniqueness that keeps you excited.I have a 5.5 yr old who loves puzzle - your typical paper puzzles, large floor jigsaw puzzles, picture puzzles, etc.He took it as soon as I took it out of the box, expecting simple plastic puzzle. HE figured out before I did how to move on it. He started to shift the red gates right away. I told him "you can't do that , that's like cheating". Only then I sat down and tried to play it myself. And I got stuck. And ONLY THEN I read the instructions and found that shifting the gates is the critical part of the game. Leave it to a 5.5 yr old to have a better instinct. He loved it from the first try and wanted to try few settings. He agreed that it is not the easy puzzle, but he agreed that it was a great puzzle because of that. Since we both find it equally challenging - it helps him keep motivation to keep trying to solve it. Get it for your kid - but be prepared to want to play it. And if you have that smarty-pant uncle in the family - let him try to solve the first (easiest one)!

Good puzzle for kids and adults
