We highly recommend this game to anyone wanting to learn geography. I recommend you play as a family so that your knowledge base grows together. In the beginning the play is slow , but by no means boring. It takes time to become familiar with the geography and even when it is not your turn you are investigating the geography of the others plays with the cards in your own hand. My daughter (at age 8) could fill in a blank map of the US without hesitation as a result of this game alone. She is motivated now to play the game learning the states with their capitols. It is a fun and easy way to learn geography and have quality time with your family. I would highly recommend this game to homeschoolers as well. Great way to build a foundation for geography. We have the World Borderline ordered and on its way!

This was the beginning of geography games for our family (after simple map jigsaw puzzles). The game challenges us to learn more geo boundaries and is fun to play with a mixed-age group. We get to help one another make and fake (bluff) the "challenge!".

I have the USA and World additions.

I saw this product on the teacher's desk in the Gifted Classroom so I purchased it for my children. Very disappointed. Difficult large cards for the children to hold and turn back and forth because they need to refer to both sides of the cards. It is too easy for each child to look at the back of their opponents cards to know whether to call the bluff or not. Perhaps, privacy screens would help but overall this was way boring. My children would just play any card to get rid of their hand and none of the other children (neighbors) would know to call their bluff because if they did know they wouldn't need to play the game to learn. Not recommended.
