My grandsons are 11 and 12, plus other relatives have joined in with them to play this game. It appears to be a hit with age 10 and older even adults--good spatial intelligence and stimulation.

Q: Will the game still be "fun" after making all 80 cards? Any suggested "rules" for one person?

While this game is designed for 2-4 players, there is a game ('round 3') where you look at a card for 10 seconds then recreate the pattern from memory, which you could do with a timer if you liked a challenge and were playing alone. While this game (like most) are more fun with additional players racing to finish first, there is certainly a way to play against yourself with a timer. As far as it not being fun after you have gone through all the cards, you would need an extremely good memory to remember 80 configurations, plus you need to roll the cubes like dice, so there is also the luck element (you can't just pick up the square and use whatever side you want (this is called 'Round 2'). I hope this answers your questions, but if not feel free to contact us again.

Q: good for 5-6 year olds?

Yes, absolutely good for 5-6 year olds. To play the game one flips a card over and then matches the 16 puzzle pieces to the picture/pattern shown on the card. A person can play alone or race against others to match the picture. I have nieces and nephews who are quite young who love the game.

Q: what skills are developed

It seems to develop your brain and is hard to work at first, try it it is fun to see how fast you can work them. It seems like the test they give to see if you are developing mental problems. I am 77 and at first had a hard tome doing it, as I worked it more it seemed to help me.
