Neck of the Woods

This game is really poorly designed. Directions aren't clear, pieces are cheaply made and perform as such. My 3-year-old loves games and is constantly asking to play it, but it's extremely difficult to play, and super frustrating for small kids. The blocks are cheap and fall over constantly, which I understand is part of the game play, but the kids we've played just found it frustrating at the fourth or fifth time.

I saw this game as pertaining to 3+. That is the main reason for my purchase. I have a 3 year old and this game is a little complicated for someone her age. I say that because the pieces are foam and are hard to stack and stay. You roll a cube which then tells you the particular stacking piece you get. The pieces don't physically connect ie: no magnet to help them stay in place so they knock over very easily which then makes a frustrated child. I see it as more of a 6+ game. (Note from Fat Brai

I am a speech language pathologist and use games and toys frequently to work on soon many things. This is a fantastic toy for my older children (5-6 years old)

I guess it's my fault, but I bought this for a 2 year old thinking it would be just a stack it up type of game, but there are really a lot of rules and some points to keep track of which made it way too much for my 2yo. Once she gets older, I'm sure we'll get plenty of use out of this one!
