Question : Just want to make sure that this 10th Anniversary Deluxe Version includes the book
Answer : Yes it includes the book but its a small paper version. It was fine for my older children, but if you have younger children or if it will be handled a lot, you may want to buy a larger, more durable version separately.
Question : Is this the full size game?
Answer : Yes, it is the full size game. It comes with two regular sized card decks (one red, one blue), a plastic tray to store them in, 4 little maps and a small storybook.
Question : I'm a teacher and I was wondering if this game would lend itself well to playing in the classroom. Could it be played in large teams?
Answer : Yes, the game can be played in large teams. You can assign one map from the box to each team and give each child a state card. You can ask questions and the children can slap their card and raise their hand if they know the answer. The child who is correct collects the game card. The team with the most game cards after the allotted play time wins. However, keep the team size reasonable as too many players could be too many for the deck provided.
Question : I have only one child. Will it still be fun if it is just the two of us playing?
Answer : Yes, it will still be fun even if there are only two players. You can play with your child in a team and compete against your son. It is enjoyable and engaging.
Question : Why is there a single and double pack? Is there a difference?
Answer : The single and double pack versions are different. The single pack includes one stack of cards listing the states and facts about each state. The double pack includes an additional stack of cards that tell the player what they need to find.
Question : If I buy the 2 pack, are there two different sets of cards about the states? And if I buy the 3 pack, are there three different sets?
Answer : No, there are no expansions for this game. The number indicates the quantity of game copies you will receive. The game content remains the same. It is a simple game with creative matching challenges to familiarize players with states facts.
Question : Is this too easy for a 9-year-old?
Answer : It depends on the 9-year-old. If they have already mastered the states, capitals, and fun facts about each state, the game's fun may wear off after a few plays. However, if they are still learning about the states and enjoy board games, they will likely enjoy this game. It is enjoyable and educational for both children and adults.
Question : Would a 4-year-old be able to play this?
Answer : Yes, a 4-year-old can play this game. To make it easier for younger players, you can modify the rules by allowing anyone with a card that fits the description to put it down instead of racing to put cards down. This modification makes it enjoyable for younger children and can be played with older siblings or family members.
Question : What is the difference between this and the Scrambles States of America game listed right under this one?
Answer : There doesn't seem to be any difference between the two games. They are sold by different sellers but the games appear to be the same. The only variation might be the packaging or a potential newer version, but the description of the games is identical.
