I like this game because it uses simple logic to plan how to deal with ice and snow storms. Also, the fact that it is cooperative, makes it a great game to bring up conversation about why or why not to do something. If you've ever lived in the snow belt, having a plan to shovel out is helpful, so this game helps young kids to start learning these skills. I also love that a bag is provided to put all of the little pieces so they do not walk away between games. Amy

My kids love to play this game and get the four families home from their daily errands without getting snowed in. I love that the kids have to work together and strategize about getting everyone home safely without using up all of the sanders and snowplows too early. My husband and I even enjoy playing, because the kids don't fight and the game uses some problem-solving skills, unlike many kids games. Highly recommend.

This is a fun cooperative game. A little easy for the the 8yr old I bought it for, but challenging for her 6 yr old brother. We enjoyed it.

I have bought every game that this company offers & I love each one. This one takes a bit longer to play then the others, but it's just as much fun. I believe game play has been covered. Yes the pieces are small & not heavy cardboard. However we haven't had any problems with them & we play the games all the time. My oldest son has autism & a game really has to be interesting to keep his focus. He loves & plays all of the Family Pastimes games. He quickly loses interest with a regular roll the dice & move type board game. Please also check out all the other offers from this company. My boys are ages 5 & 7. They can easily play all the Family Pastimes games. As stated the older one is special needs. I was so happy to finally find a set of games that he enjoys so we can do something together as a family. I suggest these games to those who have children who are high functioning autistic & ADHD. (of course I suggest them for normal functioning children as well)

This is an excellent family game, especially for the winter months. Making up a story to go with the game allows individuals of all ages to enjoy playing Snowstorm together.
