4.0 out of 5 stars We Love it! August 20, 2009

We bought this game after having fun playing with a family members for many hours. They had the LONPOS 303 brainteaser version of this game. When I read reviews it said that this is the same as the Lonpos version. Let me make it clear - it is not. There are 2 to 3 times more puzzles in the Lonpos 303 version. (*This appears to be the same as Lonpos 101 version, however.) It may cost more, but you will get more out of it in the long run!! This is a great game and we play with for many hours, but we are disappointed and should have bought the other. I do see that the review is no longer there that says it the same. Just thought others would like to know.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great 3-D logical thinking puzzle November 22, 2007

I really like three dimensional puzzles and this one is fun. I actually bought it for my 8 year-old son but I did all the puzzles as well.

It has a variety of difficulty levels that have you set the game pieces up with a few remaining. Those 'leftover' pieces have to fit in to make a complete pyramid. The beginning levels only have one or two pieces left over and the advanced levels have 5 or 6. My son has not made it through all the levels but has enjoyed watching me finish them.

It is fun to hold, works well, easy to travel with and can work with a variety of age levels. All the pieces fit inside the box.

It would be nice to have more puzzles in the book since once you've done them, it's not as much fun to go back to the same ones again.

This is great for spacial thinking as you have to think of how the pieces will work together to fill the holes left in each puzzle as well as how to place all the pieces as they are pictured in the puzzle book.

5.0 out of 5 stars really fun for all ages December 1, 2006

By Running Mom

My son really like logic and puzzles, but we weren't expecting much when we bought this, as we had been disappointed with a lot of the games out there. Well, this game is great. Fun, challenging and portable, a wonderful present. I like it as much as my son does. I slip it into my purse and we play it at restaurants when waiting to get a meal, on airplanes and car trips, etc. A very good value, as well.
