Your hands and brain work together in crucial, sometimes frenetic, ways while playing Q-bitz Extreme. Players race one another to recreate a pattern shown on a card, using wooden cubes with various shapes on all sides. Each player is given a tray and 16 cubes. A pattern card is flipped and everyone launches into action. The first player to complete the pattern wins the card from that round. Mental muscles flex, stretch, and grow, with each of the four rounds stimulating a different kind of mental gymnastics. Round one allows players to manually rotate their cubes in any way, freely seeking the shapes they need. In round two, cubes are rolled like dice and must be played as rolled, with unusable cubes rerolled only after as many cubes as possible have been placed. Round three brings memory to the forefront, and round four requires players to create the reverse of the image they see. From your highly energized neural pathways to the tips of your fast-moving fingers, Q-bitz Extreme puts you in a state of pure, dynamic fun. For 2 to 4 players.
