The Intermediate levels are harder to solve and Advanced / Expert levels are a puzzle lover's delight, adults should be challenged. Imagine the player's satisfaction when the red car is freed from the traffic jam. This game has 4 levels of difficulty: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced and Expert, with 10 cards for each. The solution is on the back of the card, helpful when I got stuck, then I tried again without looking at the solution. This game was a good find.If this is relevant: someone with an advanced degree in engineering saw our game and gave it a try on Expert level, soon was totally absorbed. I bought it for a 8 year old and she completed the Beginner levels. Her 6 year old sister wanted to try and managed to solved a couple levels.
I would definitely recommend this product. It is nice because the puzzles have different challenge levels, so there is always a puzzle for every age level. We purchased this product for our waiting room (we see a lot of families in our office) and it has been a hit. Both adults and kids can't wait to try the different puzzles.
The great thing is that he can challenge his young adult cousins to see who can solve a puzzle the fastest, so it is something that is not limited to children or to playing alone. My son received this for his 8th birthday. He loved it and enjoys solving the puzzles.
I would have NEVER thought my ADHD child would love this game. I think this is my best toy purchase EVER. Her occupational therapist recommended this game and used it in her sessions.
Whether you or your child can go through all the levels, this game is worth the money. It is not something that could be played in the car though--too many pieces. It teaches planning skills, critical thinking skills, spacial skills AND it is fun.
My daughter has ADHD as well as learning disabilities. I don't know what makes this game special but it certainly accesses a part of her brain that other things don't. But it does have a travel bag so you can use it at your destination.
Even at 9 years old, she was somehow able to go through all the levels of the game (something which most adults can't do). I knew I did but she isn't someone who sits down and concentrates on anything.
Now we have regular set (from 8 to adult) too, and he can solve all problems except #40. I can't do it too. My son will be 5 y.o. But it's really hard. Great game for all ages. in several months. He started from junior set and finished it very fast.
