MUST have family game September 21, 2008

My cousin introduced me and my boyfriend to this game. Since then, I have purchased it for myself and two other people. I absolutely LOVE it. It is a little difficult to pick up and figure out how to play on your own, but once you "get it" it is by FAR one of the most fun and enjoyable games to play. It is nice because it is a game of luck and some skill. Many games are easy to master and then blow all of your greenhorn competition away. This game has enough "luck of the draw" and such, that a first time player can beat a seasoned player. It is my favorite board game.

We first played this German boardgame with friends on a home-made board. Had so much fun (all seniors!) that we had to have one of our own. We were not disappointed! It is challenging, but simple to learn. Game pieces are easily moved out of position unless all players are very careful, but has not detracted from the enjoyment of the game. I actually put a line of craft glue around the outer perimeter to help hold things in place! For anyone who enjoys Sequence or TriOminos, this is even better!

The principles of the game are easy to grasp, the number of potential players is flexible, the ability to set a time limit is useful and overall the game is not too taxing whilst being great fun.

I decided to purchase this board game for my parents who are senior citizens (in their early to mid 70s). I was looking for a new activity that would be fun and could help keep their minds sharp. "Ingenious" definitely fits the bill: it's proving to be both fun and challenging. At first, translating the instructions into actual play was a little tricky. But by the second reading, things started coming together and games were quickly under way. This game challenges your reasoning skills, spatial orientation, and ability to strategize and think ahead. And true to some of the reviews I had read prior to my purchase, it does have a certain addictive quality to it; simply stated, it's fun to play!

This is a very fun game. Especially for people who like domino type games. It has stratigy involved along with a little luck of the tiles you get. You can advance your own peaces or chose to block others from moving theirs. The hardest part is making sure you count all your points correctly. It is very easy to miss points.
