My 5 and 8 year old grandchildren love this game.  It's a great way to teach matching colors and shapes. I actually bought a second set so we can build a great big design. One set is for the coffee table, but two sets are for the dining room table!  After we are done the kids like to get our their little Leggo people and the Qwirkle design become a  fantasy world for the kids. This is fun for the kids and me. Also, it keeps them entertained for a very  long time!  I've attached a couple of photos.
