MindWare Logic Links Puzzle Games - Brain Teaser Puzzles for Kids and Brain Games for Adults - 166 Challenging Brain Puzzles, 32 Game Chips - Ages 6+

Excellent and engaging game for the memory. Love it!

Both the adults and kids loved this game!! Challenging and fun at the same time!

This is a great game for kids to practice comprehension and critical thinking. I’d highly recommend it.

Gives my brain a workout in an enjoyable way. I use it in my therapy for FND recovery.

This is a great little solitaire game for a 6-8 year old, reinforcing some reading skills, concepts of left of/ right of, next to, etc. You could also do it with a younger child if you were willing to help some. There are other "games" similar to Logic Links, such as Animalinks (I think that's what it's called), but it is all basically the same thing. When I bought this, I thought it was for adults, however, and it is really not. Unless you are frequently stumped telling your left from your right, that is. The puzzles are not difficult at all.Each consists of a list of "ingredients" and a few simple instructions, for example:"Use one red chip, two black chips, and a yellow chip. The black chips do not touch. The yellow chip is immediately to the right of the red chip."There are also five circles (or however many circles you require for the number of chips specified) under each problem. The goal is to arrange the chips according to the instructions. My 6-year-old was able to work these puzzles fairly quickly and easily by herself. I tried the very last one (they are supposedly rank-ordered according to difficulty) and it was simple for me to solve.I generally love-love-love Mindware products, but this one has limited playability, in my opinion. Who is really going to start back at the beginning again at the easiest ones and do them all over again? Not my child, that's for sure. With about 100-something puzzles, it can take a little time to get through, but then that's that. That said, it's great for whipping out at restaurants as "something to do" before the food comes. And if you have more than one child, of course, you can get more bang for your buck.So, in general, I'd say I do like it, it keeps the little ones busy, but if you're looking for a real brain twister, look elsewhere.

My adult son was in a accident which left him with a major brain injury he has been through a great deal of physical therapy and mental therapy. We bought this puzzle game and watch his brain transform. It does take a lot of patience play this game but worth every penny.

Each of the 166 puzzles presents a number of circles, where the solver must place a number of colored chips. The puzzle comes with one or more clues as to the relationships between the chips ("One of the red chips is directly on the left of an orange chip", "A blue chip is somewhere below a white chip" and so forth). That's it-- but the puzzles are quite well thought out, varied, engaging, and arranged in difficulty levels sufficient to challenge most children. As a tool for building deductive and critical thinking skills, it is worth its weight in gold.I am not sure whether there is overlap with the Logic Links books; there are 100 or so puzzles in each book, and 166 total puzzles by comparison here. Perhaps the boxed set is a "best of" from the other books, something to be aware of. In any event the puzzles would take most children quite some time to work through, so I think this is at least a very good choice for a first pick in the series (you would then be guaranteed to encounter at least some new puzzles in the books).The price works out to pennies a puzzle. You can't beat this value. For younger children, I would also check out "Clever Castle".

Good for after strokes to regain my thoughts.

A game which enables the kid to think out of the box and try different strategies..never a second opinion on this one..each level increasing their logical reasoning.A wonderful game from logic links..

Bon jeu de réflexion pour tous les âges

I use this with many of my brain injured patients. It encourages thinking and problem solving. I like that there are puzzles of many different levels.

Daughter found this game to be very boring. Better off just printing off free logic puzzles to do online.
