This game - may tip you over the edge!

TIPOVER


This new mind challenging game takes 3-dimensional brainteasers to a whole new level. 40 Beginner-to-Expert challenges show you how to set up the grid with crates of different heights and your Tipper (red figure) assists you in the tipping. All you need to do is figure out the correct tipping sequence to reach your goal! It is recommened from Ages 8 to adult however toyologist Bailey (age 6) LOVED THIS GAME!

What does the box contain?
·         40 Challenge cards
·         Game Grid
·         Tipper
·         Crates (10) yellow, (4) green, (2) blue and (1) red
·         Travel Bag (which is great!)
·         Instructions and Solutions




Toyologist Verdict
Bailey and her dad absolutely loved this game.  It was the perfect pool side game whilst we were on holiday in Egypt. 



The travel bag is a fanastic idea, one which other game producers should adopt.  There is nothing more frustrating when you open a box and then have nowhere to put all the pieces, and worse still when you go to play the game again, yep you guessed it pieces are missing!
                                      

There were levels to challenge both Bailey and her dad, and gave them hours of entertainment.  It was a great to see and encourage Bailey to stretch her mind.



Both Bailey and her dad give this game a well deserved 8 out of 10.

Ooo and one last fact…..DID YOU KNOW?
TIPOVER™ was initially developed as an online game by Atlanta-area eccentric James W. Stephens. Mechanical versions were designed by prolific puzzle inventor M. Oskar van Deventer and prototyped by George Miller
