This was so great. Really high quality and good puzzles. I used the treasure hunt for my son’s 8 year old party. The kids were able to solve all the puzzles by themselves and had a wonderful time doing it.

We had a blast with this! We needed to tweak some of the wording to make it make sense in the US. But the kids had an awesome time…8 and 9 year olds. Great value for the price!
