| Why did I wait so long to play this? It's so simple to learn and easy to play. Wish I would have won though.
I played this with my wife and some friends from Ukraine that are now US citizens. They taught us the rules in 20 seconds. After a few games, I let my 9 year old play and HE beat the other 3. The game does require some skill and the ability to look ahead a move or 2, but it is not so advanced that young kids will lose every time, as my son proved. I think this is a great family game for all ages. |

| Takes a few minutes to learn, almost an age can play it. Yet at the same time it takes the ability to think 4-5 turns ahead to win. |

| A fun, addicting game. best played with 4 players. If you want to play with two, get the travel edition. Great for kids to play with parents- watch out Mom and Dad- the kids may beat you without you even "letting" them. |

| Great game for kids and families that love to play games! We gave this game to my 8-yr-old nephew for the holidays and love to see his deductive reasoning as he decides his moves and thinks ahead in the game. |

| One of the best abstract strategy games for 4 people. The game takes a minute to explain and is popular with almost any group. Young, old, men and women all get into this game and want to play again immediately after their first try. |

| I discovered this game while trying to find a game gift for a youngster, tried it online to test it, and fell in love. It's great with four players, but also fun with two (either playing two colors each on this board, or in the two player edition (called both Travel Blokus and Duo Blokus) |
