Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The Royal Elf Family is coming to visit their Mountain Kingdom. They want us Elves to fill their Treasure Chests with the different Gems we Mine. However, Ogres have heard about the Visit and plan to grab all the Valuables for themselves. We must do our best to get Royals & Ogres alike to share the Goodies. Easy to say. This requires lots of tricky teamwork with each game increasing in difficulty. Strap on your Invisible Shields, dear Elves, & head for the Mines. The Royals are coming!

I thnk this game is a wonderful game. It teaches great skills and is very interesting. The game is a little complicated for younger children until they get use to it and then they really like it and get into it. I like that it has different games for different age groups. Highly recommended alternative to regular board games.

It only took playing the game once at the easy and medium levels for my son and I to understand the game. Since then, we have played it at the highest level many times. After reading the reviews, I was concerned that it was a really difficult game. It's not. Maybe it's just us, but we had no problem understanding how to play.

I love that we work together to play the game. Everyone has a great time playing and is happy with the outcome of the game. In the game you have to work together, take care of others, plan ahead and even share your goods with others. It's a very sweet game. My 10 y.o. son enjoys the game.

We also have Harvest Time from the same company. It's one of our favorite games too. As a family, we really enjoy the games this company produces.

I love the concept of cooperative games, and had been wanting to try some from this company. I was really disappointed in how complex and hard to follow the instructions were, even for adults. We kept at it and finally got the hang of it, but once we did, we discovered it wasn't really much fun. My kids are 6 and 8.
