I absolutely loved this book! It has fun and challenging games for all types of people. Some of the games are classics, others are twists on classic games (such as a maze in the shape of a fingerprint, or oddly shaped crosswords with modified rules),and still others are completely original. The original games are brilliant, and so are the modifications they've made on some of the old favorites. Every kind of puzzle is in this book: observation puzzles, math puzzles, riddles, word games, mazes, logic problems, crosswords, trivia, and more. They range from quite easy to nearly impossible, but they are all on an adult level. Make sure you read the instructions to each game carefully, or you'll end up pretty confused. I would definitely recommend this book to anybody who loves games, no matter what type of games they love.

I love to use this book in my classroom. I will copy certain activities to try and get the kids to think. There are a variety of brain teasers from the easy to the more advanced. If you like brain teasers, this book is for you.

I bought this book for my brother-in-law who conducts games and doll exhibition each year in their showroom (www.ramsonsmysore.com) located in Mysore, India to the public. He received great reviews about the exhibit from the visitors and also in National newspapers
