Today I would like to introduce you to the company called Educational Insights based out of Southern California. Educational Insights is the manufacturer of playful products with serious educational value, including subject-specific classroom products, teacher resources, educational toys, and games. Their products are designed by seasoned educators & parents who know that children love to learn when you make that learning experience fun!
When you visit the Educational Insights online web site you will find that it’s really easy to navigate. The web site has three tabbed categories which are the sections for Parents, Teachers and Classroom Jeopardy. Since I am a mother and grandmother…I could spend hours just browsing around their parent’s section of the web site.
My Review: Today I am reviewing the new Tritective 3-Letter Mystery Word Game from Educational Insights for all of you. My family loves games and we have a family game night almost every week so we were excited to try out this game once it arrived.
This game is for ages 10+ and for 2-4 players. This mystery word game includes 100 spy cards featuring 3 words on each card and comes nicely packaged in a reusable metal tin.
How to Play: Each person takes a turn being the “spy” and choosing a spy word from any card in the deck. The Detectives play their cards one at a time. The “spy” tells them the number of letters their words have in common with the “spy word”. Using their super sleuth powers of deduction, detectives narrow down the letters in common with the “spy word” with every card played. The first player to guess the 3-letter mystery word wins the round!
I invited my 2 nephews over one evening so they could try out this game with me and my husband. They are ages 10 and 13 years of age. We sat down to play this and let me tell you…the boys loved it! This game is great for the 10-13 age group and it kept them totally entertained. I love educational games like this that are fun (not all educational games are fun) but this one definitely is! It was even fun for us adults to play along with them. We had a great time playing it and it only took us about 40 minutes to play. It would be a great game for at home or for when traveling since it is very compact & portable. We loved it!
