## Questions & Answers

**Q: It's just my wife and i.  can this be fun for adults?  we love "dimension," "letters/whitechapel," and "suspend."**
A: I haven't play those games.. But Ubongo is quite a nice, very light, game. I find it very amusing to play when you want a fast and fun game. I do recomend.

**Q: Are the pieces paper or plastic?**
A: They are paper/cardboard. A great game, don't let the age recommendation fool you. 4 of us adults had trouble completing the puzzles on the easiest gaming side. Lots of fun!

**Q: Is there a way to buy just more cardboard puzzle pieces?**
A: No knowledge on this subject.

**Q: Could a younger child play this game, or is 8yrs old the earliest? I have a precocious 5yr old who loves games like Set, Blokus, Uno etc.  Thanks!**
A: A younger child could definitely play the game. The age limit probably refers to frustration tolerance - some of the shapes are hard to create. But a kid who is good at spatial reasoning will enjoy the game. We had a great time playing with our kids (10 and 11).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Family Favorite
*by L***5 on February 17, 2023*

My adult niece introduced me to this game and I had to have it. It was addicting, and frustrating, and fun all at the same time. Trying to figure out how the pieces can be played on each board makes your brain work and being on the timer really adds to the excitement. Sometimes we all get stumped but we love to play. Our 8 year old son struggles a bit, since the timer isn't very long and this is kind of a complex brain game but he tries and does get some of them. My 10 year old nephew did a little better, and my 14 year old niece rocked this game. So it is family friendly, with older kids, and it is a whole lot of fun.
