My Review of the iTrax Game:
How often do you find a game that challenges your kids and yourself at the same time? I find that as my son gets older, those super simple board game days are gone! He is into puzzle type games, word games and the adores problem solving. He LOVES the iTrax Game! I have to admit, I was hooked with the first game as well. It’s like concentration meets blokus with speed added in. Each player takes a card, picks a level of difficulty, gets their wood pieces ready to go. First you have to find the path that connects the two blocks. Then you need to place the replica blocks on the card in the proper way so they match the path underneath. The person who completes the path correctly first wins! I recommend starting with the easy levels with your little ones and work up to the harder ones. My son was a bit discouraged at first when I won 3 times in a row. Then he figured out my trick. Sorry, I can’t tell you what it is! That would be like spoiling the end of a mystery movie!!
This game is thought-provoking, fast paced and fun! We highly recommend it to any families with children ages 5 and up. We have actually brought it to a few play dates because my son likes it so much!
