Great for people with dementia!!!
I work in a memory care facility and we played this game with four residents and they loved it! I was there to remind them how to do it now and then, but they all really enjoyed it! They kept wanting to play again. We were there for probably 45 minutes and it kept their attention the whole time. We probably would have kept playing, except that I needed to move on to other residents. (Obviously, not everyone who has dementia will be able to play it. They have to be verbal and have a certain level of ability to reason and to move their hands. Those with the ability to do basic math like 2 plus 3 will love this game!) It felt like a victory to me, because in the five months that I have worked there, the only thing that has united anyone in a common activity has been bingo. I’m so happy to have found another activity to give them variety and a sense of purpose! It’s really fun to cheer for each person when they roll a number that they can put a tile down. It validates them and helps them have fun. So happy to have found this!!!

The game is fun the box it comes in needs to be fixed.
We enjoyed playing this with our seven and nine year old grandsons. It definitely was a hit with them. Love the math skills and critical thinking it develops.Not happy with the box it came in which arrived damaged BOTH times that I ordered the game. I was hoping it was a fluke the first time but both games came damaged in the same way. I would like a replacement box!

Addicting Game/Hard to Win
The media could not be loaded. I love this game! I originally played it at an Independence Day celebration and bought this 6-player version the following day. The shipper was extremely fast and got the product to me in 2 days, and the game was cared for with a nice bubble wrap inside the cardboard box that it came in.The quality of the game is very nice. I was comparing this version with the only other 6-player version I could find, and chose to go with this Wood City version due to the appearance of the wood, although having some choice in the color of the felt would be nice.A couple things to note in order of importance, the dice don’t fit in the little cubby corners on the outside of the play area due to the size of the borders—or space allotted—so that may cause some minor issues with storage if you don’t want all the dice in the bag or in the center play area. Not a big issue but possibly a design consideration for future iterations of the product.The other (non) issue could be with the wooden numbers. Since they are very thin, it may be more difficult to target individual numbers to shut them than, say, a 4-player version that has wider pieces. I don’t find it to be a problem, but it’s something to consider if you choose to go with the 6-player version. The wooden numbers shift around a little (as you’ll see from my video review), but again, not an issue.My five-year-old and three-year-old daughters have always asked me if they could play when I have the game out and they enjoy flipping down the numbers. My eight-year-old son played with me once but then later asked why I kept playing the game so much. I’m sure we’ll get him to play in a tournament to see who can stay below 100 or 200 some time soon.An added bonus is that this also doubles as a dice tray for those who may be against using a dice tower or don’t want to roll dice off the table.It is a simple game to pick up since the rules can be learned in under a minute, and it teaches basic math as well.After receiving the game, the seller sent me a very considerate email ensuring that the quality of the product was good.Thank you!
