3 out of 5 stars The tiles should slide easier   December 16, 2008
Dan Poresky (PA USA)
The quality is excellent and the case is a plus. The tiles aren't as easy to slide as they could be for two reasons. The tops of the tiles are too slick to get good friction. It's difficult to move the tiles quickly because they tend to fall out of position and block each other.

I had ths "toy"as a child an remember the many hours of fun thst I had with it. I could not resist buying it for my granddaughters. It challemges the mind, and enables you to solve a "puzzle" without help of a computer. It makes you THINK!!!

5 out of 5 stars FIFTEEN IS A BLAST!   June 13, 2008

I was absolutely elated to get this game. First, it has been years since I've played it. More young people need to be exposed to it. The steel case makes it durable so it's impervious to lots of wear and tear. The case protects it from damage too. I really enjoy this game, and I plan on buying one for each of the little kids and the big ones in my household.


5 out of 5 stars Awsome for kids and grown-ups.   May 8, 2008

Our 9-year-old saw one of the kids at school play with this. So of course the nagging started as soon as we got home. Fortunately, I remember this puzzle since when I was a kid and had no problem giving in.... :-)

Also:
- it is inexpensive (unlike the playstation and x-box); which is a huge benefit, since we have 3 kids and things like this have to be bought in triplicate
- it is made of metal, so that even our 5-year-old couldn't break it
- IT IS GREAT FUN
