What our experts think
This game is easy to understand and quite addictive; one of our testers likened it to Scrabble, but with numbers. The object of the game is to be the first player to clear their rack of numbered tiles by putting them into sets or runs. The jokers are a helpful addition and can be used as substitutes for any number or colour if needed, making the game that little bit easier at times. Involving planning and working memory, players must be strategic and keep track of changing options, so our testers were engaged and concentrated for long periods. They were keen to play multiple times and the game certainly brought out their competitive side! Enjoyable for all ages and sure to become a family favourite.
