Editorial Review

This game, for two to four young players, combines elements of chance with facts of arithmetic. The result is a fun and absorbing game that reinforces multiplication-table knowledge (from 1 to 10) as players try to connect their path of markers across the board. The game consists of a colorful game board (with bright green iguanas framing the multiplication grid), a multiplication-table spinner, and 100 game markers (25 of each color). The spinner consists of three layers. The bottom two layers match two factors for multiplication; the top layer selects from among the factors matched (and also allows the player to check the answer before placing his marker). Each player spins twice to receive a multiplication problem, and then marks the game-board grid with his or her transparent marker after saying the problem aloud and trying to solve it. The game comes with complete instructions. --Ava Natov

There has to be a way to make learning multiplication fun BUT this isn't it! The spinner doesn't spin, all the answers are on the board, it just doesn't cut it! All I can say is keep looking and let me know if you find something that really works!!!

At [...]this is a top pick for fun ways to master mulitiplication facts!

For the child learning multiplication facts, this game is a mixture of memory work, strategy, and chance. The multiplication practice helps kids master their facts. Developing a winning strategy keeps the game interesting. The role of chance keeps everyone in the game until the last spin. Practice your facts and have some fun!

Recieved this product for a Title 1 level, 3rd grade class. Will assist students in multiplication learning and, more than anything, will break up the "overhead monotany"!
There are few board games of this price and content for education. To me, this is worth the money.
