For parents looking for a unique new game to introduce to Family Game Night, one that is fun yet educational, this is a winner. Players young and old will learn a remarkable amount of fun National Park facts, things we feel confident in predicting you never knew before. The game box is gorgeous with a painting of a wildlife scene. This is just a teaser of things to come; wait until you open the box. The game pieces are well made, sturdy, and wooden. Also, the “leather” pouch is a nice detail that creates the ambiance of a rugged journey. The instructions are lengthy and detailed (think Dungeons and Dragons, not Chutes and Ladders); it is clearly one of the reasons that the recommended age is 10 and up. This is definitely a game that you’ll want to read about and understand ahead of time. If you’d prefer someone show you how to play, there is a great online video that walks you through it step-by-step. The game is part strategy and part luck. Players got a real kick out of employing the many strategic options available. Along the way, you’ll discover that it is also an excellent resource for gaining knowledge and creating a love of nature. The price tag is on the high side, but the quality and ingenuity shine through so strongly that you’ll understand and appreciate the reasons behind it.
