perplexus epic
Posted 6/30/2011 by yehudis victor
Rating: 
It is much harder than the regular perplexus, the kids all love it, they have not mastered it in the least bit. My kids from 5-13 play with it and so does my husband. Eventhough it is hard, the kids love to play with it because it is very challenging.

Perplexus a "toy" for all ages
Posted 11/10/2011 by Howard Wolf
Rating:
To say that Perplexus is a "toy" is certainly the wrong description. Originally I bought Perplexus for my grandchildren, ages6-12. Once the parents started playing, they were hooked. I had to buy another Perplexus so that kids and adults would have equal time.
It looks so easy.....
The competition between kids and adults was intense. A great way to spend cold winter days.

Greatest gift ever!
Posted 1/8/2012 by ANGELA BERGMAN
Rating:
This is a great follow up to the original Perplexus. My whole family 5-35+ cannot stop trying this. We also purchased the Rookie this year and all three complement each other nicely. The mazes are set up so that you can feel successful, yet challenged EVERY time you play. We even have mini family celebrations when someone "finishes" because they are that tough, yet fun for all. I will be giving them out as gifts for sure!

A real hit in our family
Posted 12/5/2011 by Julie -Switzerland
Rating:
Setting: Home
I already owned other similar products from some other copycat brands and the Perplexus Rookie as well, therefore I am used to handling this type of toy for grown-ups. This product is actually looking much better than average. It is extremely appealing with its blue, grey and white color elements. It looks well-built and solid, even if the transparent globe sides parts are only glued to each other. This 3-D game requires dexterity, patience and anticipation and offers a great variety of challenges, some of which are just... wow, amazing! (The tunnel, the seesaw, the stairs...) Once started, this cannot be put back, it is hours of fun guaranteed and an easy way to train hand-eye coordination. I love it!

My rating of Perplexus - Epic
Posted 9/25/2011 by Jean Lee
Rating:
Setting: Home
My son loved the first one and after everyone in the house (except me) 'mastered' it we gave it as a much loved birthday gift. Now he's (11) on the Epic and its very challenging, but with time and patience he's slowly gaining numbers. We love this toy- though I won't touch it, as managing my life is hard enough.

I bought two of these for my twin 38-year-old nephews' birthday. I played with it when it came which was difficult because it was still in the box. Everybody at the birthday party played with it and did not want to put it down. They were already competing for the highest level reached. Its popularity prompted my sister to order one for our great-nephew, the son of one of the recipients. I was very pleased with my choice.

My now 8 year old had already mastered the regular Perplexus, so he was excited to try this one. It is definitely more challenging, and I think will take him longer to master. We bring this to restaurants or any other place where the kids need to be seated and quiet.

Think our Perplexus Epic is defective
Posted 12/27/2011
Rating: 
We can't seem to find the metal ball that is supposed to roll along the maze. Is it possible we have a defective product?
 |
|
Luckily, in the 1 to 1 trillion likelihood that your Perplexus has no metal ball- we won't lead you through a maze of wondering what to do. Please visit the Returns & Exchanges center. Epically quick- we'll ship another.

Perplexus-Epic
Posted 12/12/2011 by Terry Miller
Rating:
We are amazed and amused by the challenge of the Perplexus (which is still challenging) so we had to try the Epic. The products are durable as well as engineered nicely. This product is lots of fun for all ages in our household as well as friends who think they can easily acheive the maze on there first try.

Review of Perplexus - Epic
Posted 1/5/2012 by Lawna
Rating:
Setting: Home
It's a great product, but the Epic version is A LOT more challenging than the original Perplexus. The box says "Ages 8 and up," but my 8 year old boy has struggled getting very far through the maze. When he got the original last year he wouldn't put it down and loved it. With the Epic, he gets discouraged after a while and moves onto something else.

For Master Puzzle Solvers ... or Those with ALOT of Patience
Posted 1/18/2012 by Casey Griffiths
Rating:
My 9 year old happens to be incredibly adept at puzzle solving. She'd mastered Perplexus within a day or two. After a week, she's still trying to complete an entire course of Perplexus Epic so I know it's got to be challenging. She did not get her puzzle-solving dexterity from me and so I cannot comment on the level of difficulty. However, I can say that the quality of the globe material is inferior to either the original Perplexus or Perplexus Rookie. It's holding together, though, and it's taken a lot of playing so it must be durable enough.

Great 3-dimensional maze that my kids & their cousins (ages 9 - 18) couldn't resist. They are still enjoying it. More challenging than the original Perplexus - this is terrific for a child who has mastered the original.

We looked for the Perplexus Epic locally and realized that it was not available. When I realized that Fat Brain Toys had it in stock, our almost 8-year-old could only focus on "how long is it going to take to get here." It arrived in record time - 4 business days standard shipping. Our son loves it and has spent many hours working to achieve the next milestone. It is a challenging game that is difficult to put down. The adults in the house are also rather intrigued by the game. Excellent game for problem-solving and patience.

I bought this for my 12 year old niece and she loves it. Actually everyone was loving it. Her sister (15) and her were working together (a first) to see how far they could get. I really like how it is numbered along the way so you can say "I can't get past number 8" or "I got up to 25!
Grandpa wanted to steal it. I want to steal it (I actually tried to play it in the box before I gave it away, but the box surrounding half the globe made it kind of difficult).

I bought this for my home when the grandchildren come over to visit me. From what I have seen playing Perplexus myself, I am going to send it back to you. The ball continues to fall off time after time and who wants to stick with that? I don't mind the challenge but a ball falling off the path is not challenging at all. It's frustrating and not any kind of fun. Sorry.
