Product Description
Let’s Play! Randomly place the 48 picture cards face down around the game board. The youngest player begins by picking up any one of the picture cards they choose, being sure not to show it to any of the other players. This picture card shows an exact picture of an object on the game board. The other players try to guess the object by asking “yes” or “no” questions. After each question, the single playing piece is moved along the path in the mystery garden. The player who correctly guesses the object shown on the picture card keeps that card & draws another one from around the game board. Then the questions begin again. If no one has guessed the object by the time the playing piece reaches the castle, the player answering the questions keeps the picture card & draws another one & the questioning starts over. The player with the most picture cards at the end of the game wins. What Do You Learn? Recognition, association, deductive reasoning. Box measures 7.5 x 10.75 x 1.5 inch. Ages 4 & up. For 2 to 6 players. Play time is about 20 minutes.

My child could play this at 3 and it was a welcome relief from Candyland! It’s a simple, imaginative game that the whole family can enjoy.

We bought this toy for our children, ages 4 and 5, for Christmas. We have played it several times a week since then and have purchased four more as gifts. My son has been in speech therapy since he was two and this game has even helped to further develop his language skills. We love it and enjoy it as a top pick for family game time.

This is a great game because of its simlicity. There is a big detailed picture and a bunch of tiles with pieces of the big picture on them. One player selects a tile and the other players ask yes and no questions to figure out what the tile is. We love to play this game as a family.

Let me preface this by saying, I am now a big Ravensburger fan. I have a verbal, game loving 3 1/2 year old. He is obsessed with Junior Labrynth (sp?) which ranks as one of the best children’s games I have ever seen. It teaches kids to think ahead – so is a great precursor to chess. Plus it is goulish in tenor, so kids love it. With this is mind, I purchased mystery garden and the enchanted forest. They are both wonderful. Mystery garden is the simplest – it is just a 20 questions game, but it is made visual and has magical elements, so it is so much better for children. It teaches them to learn to ask general questions “Can you eat it?” as opposed to limited ID questions, “Is it the blueberries?”. My son loves it and is beginning to grasp the concept of narrowing down the options through careful questioning. Enchanted forest is also a MUST HAVE. A+ to this lovely company.
