Description

The third game in the Genius series, Genius Gems, is the same difficulty as Genius Star and offers more than 10,000 puzzles to solve! The same, mind-boggling game play builds faster thinking skills, spatial awareness, and visual perception, whether you challenge yourself or compete with another player. Begin challenges by rolling 5 patterned dice inside the shaker and letting them fall into 5 colored wells. Then race to rearrange the double-sided clusters so that each gem combination on your grid replicates the rolled patterns. Believe it or not, every challenge has a solution, no matter how impossible it may seem! The first to duplicate the patterns rolls again to reset the puzzle. Adjust the die combinations to change the difficulty level from basic to dastardly to devilish. Contents include 2 grids, 2 sets of 10 double-sided hexagon clusters, 5 ‘basic’ dice (white), 3 ‘dastardly’ dice (black), 1 ‘devilish’ die (red), and 1 dice shaker. Also includes 5 colored wells and game instructions. Best for 1-2 players, ages 8 and up. ~ Sarah E
