ThinkFun Chocolate Fix Board Game (Colors and Parts May Vary)

The price was very good for this brilliant product. Also, I love how there aren’t too many prices to lose. The booklet of “orders” which the child works on completing is a spiraled and won’t get lost or spilled all over the house. It’s mainly 9 plastic chocolate pieces. Originally I got this as I wanted to keep my child busy on their own if they want some quiet time and still keep their thinking brain on. It does require patience and readjusting and for a child who can do it , it is great! Another good idea is to use for parent to play with child and spend some quality time. I’d buy another one if I needed it

I love this game!! I had one from the early 2000’s and the chocolate pieces were strawberry, milk and dark chocolate, this one has strawberry, chocolate and white chocolate. The old version has a better booklet of puzzles, where it’s on a spiral with a stand, but overall the same concept game. I think it’s fun to sit down and play and the challenges are good. I enjoy teaching students how to play it and they all get hooked! One of the best Thinkfun games we have!

I have had this in my cart for probably a year. Got an Amazon card for Mother’s Day & decided I could finally buy it. I am almost 71 years old & a retired teacher. Since it arrived a few days ago, I keep it on my dining table & work one of the challenges 2-3 times a day. There is a sturdy booklet that comes with it. One side gives clues. When you turn that page over, you see the solution. There are 40 challenges. I have completed 15 & am on the intermediate level. Number 15 took a little time, but I got it. Based on that, I think the whole booklet will keep me engaged. The game is small. I just pulled out a ruler. The play base is 6” x 6”. The candy pieces are very cute & well made. It comes with a nylon travel bag. I can see a lot of good times ahead with this game. It is a one player logic puzzle type of game. But you could work the puzzles with a partner or take turns solving the challenges. I really like this game & am glad I purchased it.

I have had the old one since it came out. When I saw that they had updated it I had to have it.The thing's I like about this new one:It has place holders that make the the puzzles easier to solve.The things I don't like so much:The clue book isn't as well made.*The rules used to be in the clue book and are now on a folded piece of paper that comes with the game makeing them easier to lose.*The old clue book had a stand makeing easier to see the clues. The new one doesn't have a stand.* The old bag was smaller but I feel like it was made better, and it had a plastic piece that held the bag closed.So if their are so many things that I didn't like then why the 5 stars? When my game came in I had a piece missing I called THINK FUN and they sent me a new piece. They took care of it in less then 5 minutes. It was the best customer care experience that I have ever had.

As an adult, this is one of my fave logic game to play. I purchased it for my daughter and she liked solving how to place the candy pieces to solve the logic puzzle. This is a quick to learn and easy to understand how to play puzzle.

This is a well made little game and is quite entertaining. There is a booklet with I believe 40 challenges that you have to solve. They start out pretty easy and then get to be quite tricky. Because of the various levels this can be fun for a variety of people, younger and older kids as well as grown ups.I am still only giving it 4 starts instead of 5 because the fun is quite limited, once you are through with the 40 challenges you could start over but I am not sure that would be fun any time soon. So you'd have to put it away for a couple of years and see if it's fun again or instead I will probably pass this on to someone else once I am through with the challenges in the booklet.

As a gifted program teacher, this and other “Think Fun” games are developed to teach children how to solve the problem. Children and teens of all grades love these games ! They are durable and invitingly beautiful! My grandson, Mason is always excited to solve one or two problems, feel successful and run outside to play! It’s a great break from computer games.

Are you as sick of electronic stuff as I am? I feel like the kids would spent, if allowed, all of their waking time in front of a computer or a TV. I've had decent control over this by not allowing DS, PS, Wii, etc. until now. But, that's another story. With regard to this item, I found my daughters playing with it a lot, even my one daughter who normally doesn't gravitate to brain challenges (that sounds bad, right?).Anyway, it's a portable game for one person that will keep the kids entertained for a while. I would say it's appropriate for under age 12 or so because I think it may be too easy to figure out after that.All of the ThinkFun items are good.
