Best kind of rush hour! November 30, 2008
Great thought-provoking item for all ages!!! But more than anything I appreciate the fact that I can trust Amazon.com to send the item I purchase to me and in a reasonable amount of time. I am still awaiting some games I purchased from Gameoutfitter over a month and a half ago. Even with continual e-mailing back and forth, I have not been successful. (however they have charged my account!) Thank You Amazon!! J. Steadman
Fantastic game! November 14, 2008
This is a great game for any child, even an only child because it is a one person game. It really requires analytical thinking. Basically, you set up the cars and trucks according to each card, and you move them around to get your ice cream truck out of the traffic jam. It is really fun and challenging. Each card gets more and more challenging. My kids love to try to get to the expert level. The question I had when buying it is whether to get the Jr. or the regular version. I would say most kids can get through every level of the Jr. game at age 7, but all kids are different. Some will be able to fly through them earlier and others it will take more time (the recommended age is 6-8, but I would say younger kids can do the easier levels for sure). It is still challenging once you have gotten through all the cards because you don't remember how to do each card. Eventually, your child will be ready for the regular Rush Hour game. I wish they would just sell the deck of cards because the game is pretty much the same. Both come in a drawstring bag to keep all the pieces together. There is also a train version of this game. It is a bit bigger. I think this is one of the best games out there!
 good game October 12, 2008
It is a good game of solving problems.The jr.is just suitable for my 5 years son.To make it also fun for me,I buy the rush hour 2 and 3 which have more difficult cards.So we both can play it.It is a good game for the whole family.
Great Fun! September 30, 2008
Bought this for a 6 year old- he loved it. Bought another for my family 12 yr old, 10 year old, 6 year old, me and my husband- we all enjoyed it- we had the jr. set for 2 days before we then ordered the regular set ( for 8+) and all the sets of cards they make. FUN, FUN, FUN!!!!
Great puzzle/game for individual play September 29, 2008
I purchased this game for my just-turned 4 year old to keep him occupied on a vacation to the beach (for those rainy days). He absolutely loves this toy. The concept is simple: cars can only move foward and back and no flying cars! The cards provide easy visualization of how each puzzle is to look and the vehicles are easy for small hands to grasp and move. He loves to do the puzzles when he needs some alone or quiet time and it keeps him occupied for a good 1/2 hour (a real feat for our son!). I HIGHLY recomend this game.
