5.0 out of 5 stars Great fun for all ages!, August 14, 2004

VisualEyes, the "What You See is What You Get" Game. It's a dice game, sort of. Roll out the large picture dice (assembly required - possible a "con" in some homes, but a big "pro" here - those are my husband's favorite words!), and try to find 2-word phrases or compound words that appear in any pair of dice. For example, if you see in the 18 picture dice, one with a shoe and another with a horse, you might call out "horse shoe."

Each die can have more than one interpretation. There's a die with a picture of a parent and child next to a ruler on one side, and you could use it as big, little, tall, short, measure, and probably a dozen other words for that picture. And you could combine any of those words with any of the other pictures... Phrases can be anything common or known (majority rules). The possibilities are endless.

So far, we've only had this game for three days, and it's been played by kids and adults, male and female, in pairs and in groups up to 6 people. There's no need to "adjust" for younger players. And it's always fun!

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Party Game, March 15, 2004

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

It's simple, very few rules and a few adult beverages help the creative process. Visual Eyes has taken the place of Scattergories, Taboo and Pictionary at our get togethers. It is also a wonderful learning tool for children and helps stimulate imagination and creativity. Fun for all ages.

Our entire family was able to enjoy this game. The 5 year old was creating new and imaginative word combos while the 8 and 9 year old were tracking on all the common usages they could find.

This game is also a hit with grown ups!

Each person sees a different set of words. We were laughing for a long time.........a perfect party game.
