MindWare Qwirkle Board Game

We love this game. Our five-year-old grandson picked up the game and strategy right away. Highly recommend this as a family friendly game.

I bought this game to take on vacation with my daughter and her family. It’s a great game for children and adults to play together, and we all loved it. My grandchildren ( ages 10 and 8) caught on quickly, and I think the 6 and 4 year olds will be able to play with some help. Adults who are better at strategizing can be very competitive and rack up points, while the kids can also earn points and improve as they go along matching colors and shapes according to the rules. It’s easy to talk while playing it, and we all had a lot of fun. The grandkids played it on their own the next day, and the parents played with them again after returning home, so they all really enjoy it. I highly recommend it. It’s a good change from traditional board games and adaptable for different ages.

Its a real brain teaser, fun and good for all ages. Very addictive!

Very few games can be enjoyed by the whole family especially if there are younger children. This really is fun, from the adult perspective, as we all have played games only because your kids like it (when youd rather be doing just about anything else). Because this is shape/color oriented it is still a good teaching opportunity for your younger kids to concentrate and scan the options and THINK. This does not make it boring for kids at all. If you are against mindless videos that kids react to, rather than think, this is a great game that you will NOT hide from the kids for fear that you will have to play it again! You can play the whole set of tiles to complete a game in about 45 minutes. Some games are faster once you get better at seeing your best move/ placing your tiles quickly during your turn. Some are a little slower depending on luck of your draw of tiles from the bag. You cannot play well on carpet as the tiles lay touching each other much like a crossword would look and they need to be lined up well for the game to progress. It ends up looking like a very large mosaic design usually about 2 feet sq. needed. It will not work on a large cutting board.

First played this at a family reunion and loved it. Very easy to learn and to develop the strategies needed. Enjoyed it immensely.

Most kids can play this if they know shapes. Can make it easy or hard depending on who you are playing with. Easy to take along. Great new game

Get the travel version which has much smaller tiles if you are going places.

It’s a gift so the box is not opened yet. I just have to assume all of the pieces are here!

Challenging enough to make you think, but fun and casual.

Bought it to play with the grandchildren who are 11 and 13. We all enjoyed it.
