Winner of 19 Prestigious Awards! A best-selling mind puzzle past and present!
Bumper to bumper excitement that's jam-packed with challenge...4 big rig trucks, 11 compact cars. Your speedy red sports car stuck in the gridlock.
Your desire to do anything else comes to a screeching halt when you attempt to unsnarl the traffic challenges in Rush Hour and make your "full speed ahead" escape.
A flashy red sports car, (that's you-naturally), is stuck in a meddle of 4 big rig trucks and 11 compact cars. Do you curse, break into a sweat, give up, give in to the pressure? Noooo Waayyyy!! Sliding colorful blocks-you rev cars & trucks forward, backward. Shifting the vehicle positions and weakening the gridlock...until Phheww! Freedom on the open road! ( and IF you're in a brain jam...hopelessly halted, there will be no citing for traffic violations - just dump out the pieces and start again!)
Better than a brain teaser, Rush Hour is a premier sliding block puzzle designed to challenge your sequential thinking skills. Start simple with Level 1 puzzles and by the time you hit Level 4, you'll be hitting the high road with handling expertise in problem solving.
Paving the way for whole family fun, this set includes 40 challenge cards from Beginner to Expert (Rush Hour is designed to challenge all skill levels.) 16 Cars, 1 Grid Tray for play with a neat pull-out tray for easy storage.
The genius who invented the game is Nob Yoshigahara, a world-renowned inventor of puzzles. Now, Nob may have dealt with his share of "What was that name again?", but believe us...people recognize his best selling games. Rush Hour is such a run-away favorite it's now available in Rush Hour Jr., Railroad, and Safari Editions.
Keep Rush Hour tucked under your coffee table and you'll keep a freeway of fun at everyone's fingertips.

This is a wonderful addicting game that exercises your brain and keeps you thinking. I bought it for my children originally (10 years ago) and found myself fighting with them for a turn so I could play! I gave it to my nephew and I just repurchased it for myself. I also bought all the expansion sets so I could have more to play.

We all thoroughly enjoyed the Rush Hour toy. Bought both the jr. version & the adult one. Everyone played it from 6 yrs. to 60. It held interest.
Excellent Classroom Purchase

We love this game, my son is Autistic and we were turned on to this game during one of his therapy session. Ever since then I have looked for it in the stores but couldn't find it.
It's very engaging, he's 6 and some of the puzzles are challenging but it works great because it pushes his threshold of fustration and that's exactly what we were working on in therapy. He gets a big kick out of solving the puzzles and it's a great family activity to do together. We also bought rush hour junior for my daughter who is 4 and she finds it challenging but fun as well. I highly recommend this to any puzzle lovers and those looking for a challenge!
