When I bought this game I thought I was getting something cheap that I could play for a few hours on an upcoming road trip, but it proved to be a pleasant surprise. I found myself struggling to put it down! If you like puzzle games, you'll definitely enjoy this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hands Down (or should I say Hands On!) the best value for the dollar., November 24, 2009

This review is from: Hands On! Tangrams (Video Game)

I just got this game earlier today, and I cannot put it down. It's so simple, yet fun...exactly what I was looking for in a hand-held puzzle game. My DSi hasn't had this much action since I got it. Recently, I have been addicted to Little Big Planet on PSP LittleBigPlanet and MotorStorm Arctic Edge on PSP MotorStorm: Arctic Edge [Online Game Code]. While I am totally loving playing my PSPgo while out on the road PSPgo - Piano Black, this game for less than $15 has really surprised me. This is a different, but addictive puzzle game...a nice departure from the Suduko and Brain Challenge stuff currently available on the DSi. I am definitely keeping my eye on future Island Official Games, in hopes that they can continue to come out with different, challenging games that won't break the bank.

Bought this for myself because I love puzzles & my kids & I ended up fighting over who was going to get to play it! A simple concept, but great fun!!
