This was a really fun game that we've played over and over. It's easy to learn (even for kids as young as second grade) and you could easily modify it. For example, you could buy other "10 days" games (Asia, Africa, etc.) and attatch them. We tried playing without the map on the board so you had to memorize locations. Even playing it the conventional way, we discussed observations like "Germany is fairly big but borders so many countries, that must be why it's been so influential in history." We also finally learned where exactly Croatia and Estonia are! The best part is that we didn't mind at all learning this and more- it was just a really fun game!

We bought this game with good educational intentions for our children and the accepted expectation that we would have to pressure them (and us) to play from time to time in order to improve their geography knowledge of Europe. Not so: we all really like that game, it is the first to go in the suitcase when we travel, the first one to get out of the cabinet when we want to do a family game night. The most enthusiastic about it? The adults. We actually played it with adult friends yesterday. It takes strategy and luck, and teaches geography in the process. Well done. I am thinking about buying the USA version.

I bought this game for my son for Christmas because we live in Europe. We've loved it and play it frequently. It is a low stress game but quick to play and just a lot of fun. We play it mostly with our two older kids who were 9 and 10 when I bought it. The game requires some logic skills and the ability to read country & ocean/sea names; but could easily be played by most children as young as 3rd or 4th grade.
As a teacher, I also love that you learn a lot of geography along the way. Not only do you get a sense of where the countries are on the continent, you also figure out which countries border each other and which bodies of water they border. The country cards include information about the country including the capital city, population and total land size. Although reading that info isn't necessary for the game, you see it over and over as you plan your trip. Lots of learning while you are having fun!
