 Rating: - An educational and very fun gameI gave this to my 4 year old gifted son last Christmas and for the 2 months following, all he wanted to play was Scrambled States. Good thing it is such a great game otherwise Mom and Dad would have gone mad! He has always had a geography interest so this game suited him perfectly.

Rating: - Wow!My 5 year old son has now learned all the states and capitals! I have recommended to all of our friends! Lots of fun! Rating: - Thumbs UpThis is the game my nine year old son brings out when it is game time as his favorite.

After playing it repeatedly, some of the "challenge" cards start to get repetitive, so I do wish there were more (or a booster pack) to help keep the game fresh. A single game goes by pretty quickly, and can be easily adapted for younger kids or beginners (just let ... Read More |
