The instructions were easy to understand, the setup was simple, and it was overall a very enjoyable game for me and my children.I love the idea that you must identify the mutual similarities between two children, regardless of age, race, nationality, and ethnicity. It not only teaches children to look beyond our differences but it also teaches children how to socialise.The aspect of the game that encourages the players to ask each other questions and converse, truly helps them make friends in the real world.When me and my children began playing, I was able to teach them the instructions within a few minutes. Then, after I had left, they continued playing for another hour!I encourage you to buy this game because it’s not only simple but creates a fun yet educational experience for children!😊👍

This product is very well made. The cards are beautifully printed and packaged. The quality is very high on this game. I have sorted out the cards so I can use this with different age levels in my school counseling office. Some of the vocabulary is way too advanced for 6 year olds as the game indicates. But with sorting, you can make it work. I only gave it 4 stars because the game just isn't that fun. My students will play it with me but the "fun factor" isn't very high. As an educational tool though, it serves its purpose.

I was hoping to use this with children in my mental health practice, but it confuses them and they tire of it quickly.

An excellent family game for young kids and these days probably adults too. It's an interesting game that takes you on a journey to discover what makes up a person. All the different personalities, and features.It has a very wide array of characters and seems inclusive of many different types of people. There are some blank cards for the players to come up with their own ideas and make the game very inclusive. They can describe themselves or someone they imagine.Together the players will talk about similarities in players, and differences and answer questions of what kind of attributes they have, what names they have and what interests they have. It opens your mind up to different possibilities and there is no wrong answer. This is not about being good or bad. It's about opening up your perspective and realizing there is much variety in life, families and friends.It's a lovely game if your curious or want to teach kids there are many different types of people. Everyone is ok. Everyone is accepted. You might fill in some gaps and answer some questions that you didn't even realize you had before.High recommended for the educational and social learning crowd and parents.

I LOVE the concept of this game however the language used was much too high level for its intended purpose I believe.I have an daughter with autism and this game is exactly the kind of play practice she needs. However! As nine year old kiddo with autism, she (like many other ASD kiddos) struggles with language and abstract concepts. Of which half of this game is based on. The words used are complex and complicated on the attribute cards (we had to explain the word attribute before we even got going!). I love me some five dollar words and am happy and excited to introduce her to new language however it took away from the compare and contrast part of the game massively. We had to sound out almost every word and then explain the very abstract meanings of them. Which made it difficult for her to then remember and use.As is, it is absolutely not for ages six and up. If your kiddo struggles with language at all I would say this is at minimum a middle school game or possibly a high school game. I wish it was a little more ASD friendly because the concept is fabulous and I could see therapists using it daily if the language was simplified.

I use this to help my son learn social skills and learn to interact with people. You do not have to be a therapist or professional to use this. It is great to have in any home.

I'll start by saying that the concept of this game is awesome and it is very well thought out. That being said, the instructions were a little hard for my kids (ages 11 and 7) to understand. Mostly my 7 year old. He quickly lost interest and tried to make up his own game with the cards. I explained it to them and once he had a better idea of the game he seemed to enjoy it. I would normally point out that $29 is a pretty steep price point for a game and especially a card game, but the message behind this one makes the price worth it in my eyes.

The directions were not clear. It was difficult for people to understand how to play.
