5.0 out of 5 stars SNAP Decisions, July 7, 2002

What to purchase? SNAP is a wonderful decision!!!

Our family and friends have been playing SNAP for some time now with children as young as 3 and adults as old as 83. With its great artwork and creative design and rules, SNAP creates fun times for all.

SNAP play itself involves no language or math skills... it mainly involves spatial relationships - object orientation and color matching. SNAP is very much like doing a very simple jigsaw puzzle. Game 2, the simplest, simply involves being the first player to get rid of his/her cards first. Games 1 and 3 involve points and score keeping.

SNAP has a very unique play feedback mechanism (incorrectly placed tiles won't snap together) that prevents players from making a bad placement of a SNAP tile card. This feature makes SNAP very good for a wide range of abilities. SNAP should be a great resource for persons with disabilities.

SNAP plays quite fast, so parents should always be able to get at least one quick game in with a pleading child when time is tight. SNAP can, however, keep kids busy for hours at a time.

SNAP allows for many variations in play. Children, especially, tend to make up there own games and rules which fosters creativity.

I know of one elementrary school that plans to put a SNAP game in every classroom including special ed classrooms. I could not offer a better endorsement.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a jigsaw puzzle! It's a game!, October 8, 2002

Why didn't they have this when I was a kid?

The idea of the game is to use puzzle pieces to create a series of long dragons. The longer your dragon, the more points you get. Well, those are the simple rule, which are great for young players, but if you're a fan of strategy games, there are more complex gameplay variations that will put your brain to the test. Or, you don't have to play it as a game at all. It's fun to just put it together as an free form jigsaw puzzle, too.

My kids (5 and 7) love this game. We haven't really played the actual game yet--as soon as the pieces were out of the box, the kids started putting the puzzle together. The puzzle pieces can be put together in endless combinations, and so the fun can last a long time. I figure that by the time they get tired of the puzzle part of the game, I can start reading the rules.

A child doesn't have to read to play this game, but they must love puzzles (and most do) to enjoy it.

The puzzle pieces are made of standard cardboard and they can get worn out after some use. But I think one will get enough fun out of this game to worth the money.
