Fat Brain ToysAcuity

Awesome game!! I was worried the cards wouldnt stand up to my 7 and 5 year old, but it did! This game is so fun to play and the rules are very simple. the cardboard cards are very sturdy and its very educational!

Our 12 yr old daughter got this for Christmas and we've played it many times already. The kids are actually quite good at matching. We get better the more we play. This involves alot of thinking, looking at patterns and paying close attention to detail. Can be challenging after a long day at work! Great purchase for good old fashioned fun

This is a very good family game. Everyone who played it have enjoyed it.The tiles are really thick and made of high quality cardboard. Yes, they're not the "best" I've seen, but certainly they are better than most tiles seen in many other board games. Nice box and game insert!The explained game rules suggest many variants you can play with. They are all good.I suggest that you should play the game by adding the challenge rule as well as the wrong call rule, explained on the back of the rules paper. The game is more fun this way. We do not use the "point game" variant suggested.I'd also suggest a little nice variant to make the game more speedy and challenging (we always play this way):Regarding legal matches, only corner and side matches are allowed. The third type of finding a match which is "clockwise/counterclockwise match" is not allowed.This made the game more fun, more attentive and challenging when trying to find a match. It also made it faster to call out for a challenge when no match found.Another variant if you want to incorporate "clockwise/counterclockwise matches" is to make the grid 4x4 (not 6x6).This will make a match somewhat more difficult (but this third type of matching will compensate for the difficulty). Therefore, providing almost the same attractive game experience with faster calls for challenges.The above 2 variants were tested and they worked great (better than the original in our opinion).You can test your own too.Recommended for families and parties!

This game is fun to play and changes each time you play. I was pleasantly surprised upon unboxing to see that I didn’t need to “separate” each card from an original large sheet. So great news! No annoying little card stock “tabs!!!” Each piece is very sturdy and well constructed, plus the storage box keeps all pieces in place within the box.Easy to play for all ages!

I purchased this gift for my almost 7 yr old great niece and she loves it!

I like to buy a family game every Christmas so saw and purchased this one. The directions could be a little clearer but we figured it out. I have played it with my 5 and 9 year old. We have had to go away from the written rules and make up our own becasue they are a bit advanced for my 5 year old. My 9 year old had found it to be a bit complicated depending on how we play. That being said, I like the educational aspect that they really have to take their time to search and concentrate on finding matches. You definately have to do some rule adaptation unless you are playing with adults and I can't imagine ever playing it as a timed game with my kids.

Written by my eleven year old daughter: Acuity is a very fun and unique game that I played today with my mom. It was interesting and very challenging; it puzzled us very much! Over all the game’s concept was amazing and it deserves a glowing 5 star review.

OMG, if you have a kid that is bright and likes to be challenged this is the game for you. It is great for kids (our granddaughter is 10) and for adults., Be aware that the 10 year old had 15 cards to our 1!. It is such an amazing game for memory, eye coordination, too many skills to mention. Buy it, read the instructions, carefully and play away! WOW
