## Description

Step into the curious case world of ThinkFun Cat Crimes, where you play detective to uncover which clever kitty committed the heist! 🕵️‍♂️ With 40 escalating puzzles set across a double-sided game mat, your mission is to use clever logic and precise deduction to match clues and identify the mischievous cat, item stolen, and time of the faux crime. Each puzzle begins with 'crime cards' revealing clues like, “The orange cat knocked over the plant after 3 PM.” Combine these hints to eliminate suspects and crack the case! Featuring six colorful cat figurines, crime tokens, and a sturdy mat, the game brings charm to every session. This engaging mystery game supports skills in logical thinking, attention to detail, and puzzle-solving—ideal for independent play sessions or mental conditioning on the go. It’s compact and durable—perfect for car rides, solo quiet time, or whenever a screen-free challenge is needed. Recommended for kids aged 8 and above, but clever enough to captivate teens and grownups alike, Cat Crimes makes a standout gift for birthday games, holiday stocking stuffers, or classroom enrichment. Uncover the culprit, complete the case, and delight in every 'purr-fect' deduction! 🐾🔍

Review: Got this game for my 7 year old's birthday. He's a cat lover and loves Clue Jr. We love this game because of the ease of play and the quick reset for next game. We also love that you can play solo or with 2 players, unlike many games that require 3+ to be enjoyable; making it a fun pick for only children or small families. The puzzles are a great introduction to logic and critical thinking for young minds. The game makes a great visual for learning"if-then" conditional statements. The only downside would be the replay value once you inevitably make it through the deck of cards. But I think the learning value as a teaching tool is worth the cost. If the game designer ever came out with expansion packs of the cards, or downloadable puzzles, that would keep the value higher.
Review: Our extravert daughter loves taking herself away and playing this game by herself! Perfect challenge and educational level that builds in difficulty. We love how it makes her think logically!
