    Marbles Gift Wrap

     

    Marbles offers gift wrapping on this brainy product for only $1!

    This multi-award winner is one of our bestsellers. Perhaps it’s the fun of setting up the game board based on pictures of traffic jams and then plotting your escape as you slide cars and trucks out of the way. Or maybe it’s because Rush Hour looks like a kid’s game but it’s challenging to even the best adult puzzlers. Whatever the reason, this world-renowned game will rev up your concentration, spatial awareness and sequencing abilities. Now if only your morning commute were this mentally rewarding and fun.

    Brain Health Expert Says:

    "Improve your concentration as you engage your occipital lobe keeping track of different colors; exercise your parietal lobe to modulate spatial awareness."

    How to Play:

    Each player gets a pawn and ten gates. The pawns start on opposite sides of the board. In turn, players can choose whether they want to move their pawn one space up, down, left, or right (no diagonals); or place a gate somewhere on the board. Pawns have to maneuver around the gates with the goal of getting to the other side of the board. Pawns cannot be trapped by the gates - they have to be left with at least one way to get to the other side.

    How to Win:

    The first player to get to the opposite side of the board is the winner.

    The Marbles BrainCoach says...

    Everyone loves this game. Rush Hour provides hours of visual puzzling. It's popular with both kids and adults - I've had customers tell me that it's a big hit in the break room at work! If you aready have this game, and you think you've gotten pretty good at it, try the expansion packs because they take things up a notch.
