TOMY Puzzle Wars Board Game, Electronic Puzzle Game for Kids and Adults, Shape Sorting Puzzle Board with Sounds, Adult Board Game Suitable for Children from 8 Years +

The idea of the game is great but it's not easy to use or store. The shapes arrive stuck to a plastic frame which you have to take apart in order to use them. Small edges of the frame are stuck to the shapes which doesn't able a smooth and fast game play at all. It's a shame as its really frustrating and causes the shapes to not sit properly next to one another. I'd recommend to spend more money on one that works better.

Not great my grandson soon lost interest

While the idea is good the kids were not entertained for long. The pieces do not move fluidly and I would return it only it would cost me more to post back.

Very good game, whenever me and my 8 year old daughter have time we have a few games.

I had high hopes for this battleships-style puzzle game, but we're left a little disappointed. The idea is great. Players chose from a Beginner/Intermediate/Expert puzzle card which is slotted into the game so both players can see. Players then place puzzle tiles into a grid as quickly as possible to replicate the card. Press the buzzer to indicate that you're finished. That's all there is to it, but it has a good difficulty gradient and we liked playing Battleships-style. Unfortunately, the build quality of the game is not good. When setting up the game, you have to pop the (thin) tiles out of the frame they were manufactured in, and this leaves lots of little, sharp shards of plastic along the edges of the tiles. Apart from making them unpleasant to handle, this also means they don't fit well into the base of the game. Consequently the tiles pop out and move around. The shaped inserts (one for each difficulty grade), also slip and slide around, which frustrated my 6 year old (and me!). So, all in all - a good game, poorly executed.

This game is lots of fun and we have enjoyed playing it. My sons love playing this and racing eachother.The buzzer makes it a bit more competitive.It is well made, easy to store and long lasting.

The main thing I liked about this puzzle game which I have played quite a bit with my daughter is the wide range of difficulty levels offered by the different configurations and of course house rules to level the playing field a little. It’s good for a short sharp games session where your spatial skills will get a workout. I’m not so thrilled with the presentation which seems a bit dated compared to some electronic two player games but we have been enjoying it which is the main thing.
