Toys and Games Reviews of Haba Rainbow Timber Game

Customer Review: Jenga - with Attitude...
Summary: 5 Stars

If you are familiar with the game Jenga, then you will understand why I call Rainbow Timber "Jenga with Attitude." Like Jenga, the object of the game is to remove pieces from the tower without causing it to topple over. However, by adding the colored die, the game is taken to another level - one requiring a higher level of reasoning skill and greater dexterity.

Further, Rainbow Timber adds an element of chance that is not present in Jenga. In my opinion, that aspect of the game also makes it more suitable as a game to play with younger players. Because each player must remove a piece matching the color showing when the die is rolled, younger players may feel they are on a more level playing field. Yes, the thought process and reasoning to determine which piece will be the most appropriate to remove still exists. And yes, adults may have an advantage based on those skills. But by adding the element of chance, younger players may feel they have a better opportunity to compete and win.

This game is rated for age 6 and above. However, I believe that younger children, perhaps as young as 3, could enjoy this game if an adult was playing it with them. As with other toys, one would have to gauge the maturity level and the attention span of the child to determine whether it is suitable.
