Great game as can be expected from Crainum
This game is so great! My 3 year old and 1 year old can play it together with very little help. And that is just with the beginner card deck. We haven't opened the advanced card deck but I sure the game will grow with my kids. So creative and fun!

Great game!
My daughter received this game for her 3rd birthday and she loves it! It teaches or reinforces many concepts: letter recognition, counting, shapes, colors, turn taking and memory. Great game!

A Really Cheaply-Made Game That Is Completely Uninspiring
My daughter got this as a birthday present. It seems like a waste of money to me. There are so many more interesting and inspiring games to play that involves colors and numbers. This one didn't even pass the 2 week test for my four-year-old. And no adult in our house would honestly want to play it. School Zone's cute Crazy Eights card game for $[...] is a better bet for a game with two play options. Or have some real family fun with Orchard or Selecta Piccobello Laundry Game or Corso Cannelloni. Those all get 5-star recommendations.

Fun for everyone
We got this for my son's 4th birthday and today we played it with a 3 year old neighbor boy and both boys understood the game right away and we had lots of fun. We played several games. The game goes quickly so if you're not a big game player or only have time for one game, this game is the one for you. However, as the adult, I also had fun and enjoyed watching the boys guess the correct answers pertaining to their colors, numbers, letters or shapes. I'm thinking of buying this game for the 3 year old as his birthday is next week and he really enjoyed it.

Another thought on durability
Since so much has already been written on this game, I'll add my two cents. I agree with everyone that this is a great game, both my 3&4 year old sons love it. However, the younger son easily broke the clasp on the treasure chest when I wasn't looking and now the game is useless. The treasure chest won't stay closed. I'm not sure its worth it to buy another one and try to keep a very close watch to see that they don't break it.
