Toys and Games Reviews of Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader? Game
Customer Review: Questions Portions - Great Design & Great Fun, Rest Makes No Sense
Summary: 4 Stars
The TV show is fun for the whole family and the questions portion of the game is great fun - it's rare to find a game that both a 4-year old, an 8-year old and adults can all enjoy - since they did a real nice job of dividing out the questions by age group and it's hilarious for adults to try to remember what a denominator is :-)
Of course, as a board game, you cannot replicate a panel of kids as your "help" buddies but the way they came up with a substitute gmaeplay makes very little sense. They should have kept the game nice and simple instead of trying to re-invent the TV experience and failing. So, like most people, I think you'll invent new rules for your family - it would be pointless & complicated to explain how they want you to play this game but again, you can skirt around and stick to the questions and just hand out the money prizes.
The questions are divided by grade group and then by color and the questions are great. They are all a good test of knowledge from ages 4-10 but it is for kids who like retaining knowledge and um, smart - because if they don't love reading, studying, math, history, geography, etc ... this is not really that easy of a game as they have to pull out paper and do math problems and spell and so forth but smart kids will love it as they get to show off so know the kids who you are buying this for ...
And it's fun for families as there are definitely things that your 3rd grader will have just learned but you cannot remember anymore :-)
But you will have to make up your own gameplay rules as the design of the game itself makes very little sense or rather, it's way more complicated than it has to be when they could've just simply substituted moving pieces up & down a row or something to indicate progress in the game ... so, questions - smart, and concept - great. As a gameboard, poorly thought out but you can easily make your own family rules ... and you will rapidly run out of question/answer cards though - hope they add new answer packs quickly.
A great family game and fun play for smart kids.
