Qwirkle is a great game. We have played it with six year olds and we are seventy year olds. The problem is that some of the tiles are grooved on the back side and therefore, overtime, can be recognized. Also, red and orange can be difficult to distinguish.

Qwirkle definitely gets creative juices going. It is simple to learn, but difficult to outplay your opponents. Unfortunately, my colorblind friends had a difficult time with the game and the paint smell was not very pleasant. Also, the tiles needn't be so big, and hard to carry around.

Review for Qwirkle

Qwirkle has the right idea. You get to think "out of the box" and create patterns in all directions using both shapes and colors. My girls and I loved the idea of the game. When we sat to play it we all felt like the directions were lacking. Almost immediately there was disagreement on patterning. When we turned to the directions there was not a comprehensive answer. Now we play it with our own directions and have fun with the overall concept of the game.

Wonderful Game Play

The game itself is excellent, a mix of Scrabble and Dominos. Easy to learn, quick to play, no accurate spelling required! However, the current production run is terrible - the tiles may have chips in them. Paint is thin, stamped shapes not always complete, not always centered. This production run is a disappointment. The next production run by this manufacturer is promised to be much better, addressing the issues mentioned above.
