Educational - without the kids realising! October 24, 2008 Ms Bookworm (UK) 79 out of 79 found this review helpful
Amazing - an educational game that my children don't mind playing! My 6 and 9 year old love this. You have 10 seconds in which to memorise as much information as possible about a country - flags, towns, exports etc. Then you roll a dice and have to answer a numbered question about the country. That's all there is to it. If you answer correctly, you keep the card for that country. The person with the most number of cards at the end of the game wins. If I sat down and quizzed my children on their knowledge of flags, towns, countries, they'd find it really dull. For some reason the egg-timer and dice turn this into a fun game for them. What a find!

The BrainBox All Around the World game is good fun for all ages. We played together as a family after a long lazy lunch, my daughter aged 9 and my parents in their 70's. We all got some right & some wrong so not too easy or too hard for anyone. Recommended for when the more energetic games get a bit too much & brilliant for geography homework.
Real fun and educational at the same time! February 5, 2009 Trader (Bucks, United Kingdom) 16 out of 16 found this review helpful
I bought this for the children for Christmas and we're still playing with it. It's a lot of fun and the fact that the aim of the game is who wins the most number of cards in 10 min., means that you can have little sessions of it, so it's appropriate for children whose attention span is limited. It's fun because one might get the same card but different questions according to the number shown on the die. I'm thinking of getting some other ones from the series. Educational. Good buy.
Perfect present for 9yr old October 16, 2009 ladyfid (Scotland, UK) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
We bought this game for my son's 9th birthday having no knowledge of it prior to seeing it here on Amazon. We read the previous reviews and thought for the price it was worth a shot. (Sick of the toy cupboard full of games which promise "hours of fun" etc which never get played) This little box is brilliant! Our son is very much into factual learning at the moment and the wide variety of questions from colours on a flag to border countries and animals makes it a really great game for all. The cards seem very durable being made of thick card and the language used is good for helping with reading/vocabulary. Even Grandma with her great general knowledge has fun yet there are still enough challenges to keep it interesting. The 10 minute rule has to be stretched as we so enjoy it that we keep going for another 10. It is compact portable and simple which is great for traveling and means you can pick it up anytime there are a few spare minutes which entertains board kids. We have been so impressed that we are going to buying some more for gifts.
Great game! April 11, 2009 JJ MULLINS (London, UK) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
My daughter (8) and her friends all love this game - they'll need to be able to read well enough to read the questions and answers, and adults may know the answers without having to reference the cards.
All in all, though, great.
