Boring and inaccurate,

= Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars = Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars = Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Renaissance Art Game (Paperback)
I purchased this as a gift for my 11 year old. The game part is boring as it includes only Go-Fish and Concentration. The quality of the material is very good. I'd resell the game except that the book contains many weak attacks against the Catholic Church (even though all the artists featured were Catholic). A particularly funny one goes: "Medieval scholars declared that the earth was flat because the Bible seemed to say so." Um... sorry, medieval scholars knew that the earth was round - though they did believe it was a perfect sphere, as Aristotle taught. More like this sprinkled throughout.
