 "Great little brain teaser" 2010-02-12
By Vegan Mama (Massachusetts)
I purchased this game two years ago and I still play it. I've worked through all of the cards now but the expert ones are hard enough that you can redo them again and again without remembering the moves plus there are additional card packs you can purchase. My son wanted to learn how to play so I set up a beginners level game for him and he zoomed through the first few puzzles in the pack so I bought the junior version for him. He was 3 at the time and he's now 4 and back on the adult version, just hit the expert level today. He's incredibly logical and has excellent spatial reasoning skills, no doubt due in large part to his love of Rush Hour. It's a very educational game for kids and great fun for adults.

This is a great toy - for both kids and adults alike. It is stimulating to the brain and is a great solitary activity. I know adults who play this every time they have a spare moment!

 "a well-designed all-ages game" 2010-01-29
By audrey (white mtns)
This game is simple to explain, fun to play for all ages, adaptable to multiple skill levels and designed well -- what more could you ask. Opening the box you'll find a set of plastic cars of varying length, a deck of 40 cards that give layouts for the cars that vary from fairly simple to dastardly. Once you set up the miniatures as depicted, the player's task is to move the cars until a path is cleared for the target car to escape the gridlock. The game is well designed -- it includes a tray to hold the cards and a bag for the cars when not in use; also, a card holder lets you display the current puzzle. Very nicely done!

My 9 year old son absolutely loves this game! He had played it at school and kept asking for it. The drawer for card storage is ideal and it comes with a bag to store the cars in!

 "Family fun" 2010-01-17
By P. N. S. Viera (Spain)
I bought this game for my child's 6th birthday. He had played a similar game at a brain games website we visit often, so he was familiar with the mechanics. He loves playing and likes the challenge of starting with easy cards and hiking up to intermediate, and even advanced. At first he needed help placing the vehicles in the grid, but not any more. He also knows there's the solution on the back of each card, but he hasn't figured out how to interpret the code, which is good, because that way he doesn't give up right away. I also like the cloth bag to store it in, as it allows you to take it along and play whenever you feel like it.

 "Great strategy and improving concentration game" 2010-01-06
By Twins and tired (Ny, NY)
We bought this game after reading positive reviews and deciding that we were trying to avoid a lot of plastic toys this Christmas. We focused on games and puzzles instead, and this has been my 5 year old twins favorite. The concept is simple - move the trucks and cars out of the way so the ice cream truck can get through. I'm impressed with the patience and strategy my 5 year olds have displayed. It's also small, so it can be taken on vacation, etc. Great addition to our games!

 "Cheap plastic moulds for trucks" 2009-11-07
By Myrtha W. Chang (Boston, MA)
I bought this game a few years ago. Kids like it so I bought another for a friend. The plastic moulds are so cheap and light, not like the heavier ones in the original game. The trucks in the game I bought a couple years ago were heavier and studier. This one was wobbly and plasticy and didn't move as smoothly on the board. I hope manufacturer reads this so will restore previous quality.

 "Nice Game for Asperger's or Nonverbal Learning Disorder" 2009-11-06
By Leslie Readit
This was a game recommended for my 6 year old with Asperger's and NVLD. I'ts supposed to help with visual-spatial deficits. I'm sure it does, but also like the fact that it helps with motor planning too. You have to plan your move a couple of steps at a time. You want to move your icecream truck, but first must move the purple car, but, wait, the red firetruck has to move in order to do that. But wait, the yellow taxi is in the way of the firetruck, and so on. It teaches logic, patience and the oh so important sequencing that is so difficult for Asperger kids. For them it is hard to keep track of more than 3 steps at a time and this game teaches that. It has super beginner levels and gets harder as you work thru the cards. I like to play it too.

 "Money WELL spent" 2009-10-03
By Mary (IL, USA)
This is the BEST. I bought it for my 4yr olds B'Day. He loves it, as does my 5 yr old as well as my husband. My son takes it with him to his brothers soccer practice and plays against a friend who has one as well. Its wonderful because it requires thinking without an adult being present to explain. If you want a learning toy that will keep your child occupied for hours, this is IT
