                Got this game for my son-in-law for Christmas. He and my daughter are big board gamers, since they've had a 'No TV' pact since the wedding (yeah, pretty cool). He is also a doctoral candidate in math, and she's an artist. So finding a game that will meet their various standards is a challenge. This one caught my eye for some reason. Do not be fooled by the six and up designation. While a young child can easily catch on to this game, it is colorful and graphic, and is a challenging, mental game as well, and will easily satisfy adults. Fun, easy to learn, and we played three times the first night, and are seriously thinking of buying another set to make the game more elaborate. Figure on about 45 minutes per round. Definitely recommended.

                  We are on our second game. We used the first one so often that the paint wore off the tiles (which is my ONLY complaint about Qwirkle). We love it! We've given sets to our children/grandchildren and they're hooked on it, too. Great concept, great game, lots of fun and an easy way to teach strategic play to kids.

                  Comments about HearthSong Qwirkle:

                  Qwirkle is a funny name for a fun game! Colorful, sturdy pieces provide visual and intellectual stimulation. The concept is easy enough for a 3-year-old to master, and just challenging enough to make it strategic for us "over-3" types. We use it as a great rainy day alternative to puzzles and board games. The only downside is the odor of the game pieces, sort of a piney, shellac-type smell. So those with strong sensitivities to smell might want to choose something else.

                    I loved this game. I had a great time playing it with my family. I am not sure if a six year old could play it, but the 46 year olds were gettting pretty cutthroat!!

                      I couldn't wait to buy this game, since it's so comparable to Scrabble (my favorite game of all time), and am so glad I did! We absolutely LOVE IT! Great mind challenging game, for sure. However, the one problem I have with it is that it should have come with wooden trays, as in Scrabble, in order to stand your tiles up and hide them from other players.Otherwise...perfect!

                        Comments about HearthSong Qwirkle:

                        My mother loves games and art. She grew up playing games with her family all the time. She particularly loves Dominoes and Scrabble and coloring mandalas. Now that Parkinson's is taking a toll on her short-term memory, I thought Quirkle might be a good alternative for her. We played it Christmas Day and she loved it; asked to play again before she went to bed.

                                        We love this game, we play it every thanksgiving with cousin and parents... everyone enjoys it from child to adult. Fun and makes you think.

                                        This is a game my 4 year old granddaughter can play along with adults - lots of fun - helps children to learn colors, shapes while they are playing.

                                        A good game for the whole family to play and think strategically and uses math for the children to figure out their scoring.

                                            At Christmas, my family played this game together. Ages 6-60 enjoyed it equally well. How many games can claim that? It will get a lot of use in our home, and it is made to withstand that use. A great choice!
