SUMMARY

Find It Games offers a line of creative games that never need to be put away. Find It is ideal to play anywhere: at home, in the office, in your car. People of all ages can enjoy the hunt for the hidden objects buried within the layer of recycled plastic pellets. Alone or with friends, everyone will enjoy spinning it, shaking it, and twisting it until all the objects are found.

 

Find It “Sports Version” contains pellets that simulate an outdoor playing field and represents over 35 different sports containing over 40 items such as jet ski, boxing glove, basketball hoop, tennis racket, football and the hidden penny.
INDIVIDUAL CATEGORY RATINGS

EASE OF USE
Is it easy to use?  Well...it isn't hard to start using it!  And it isn't hard to work with!  But if you think it's going to be easy to find all 40 items in the cylinder - you are sadly mistaken!  Find It Games has created such an addicting, time-eating little bundle of joy (or madness) that you won't find it easy to put it down!  So yes, Find It Sports Version is easy to use, but it is certainly hard to find every hidden piece!
DURABILITY
Find It Sports Version is made extremely sound - and it needs to be - because you'll be shaking, turning, twisting and working the cylinder to find those items incessantly!  Let's just say, even with a little frustrated shaking and tossing, Find It showed no signs of wear or tear!
VISUAL APPEAL
At first look Find It Sports Version isn't going to jump off the shelf at your kids.  But wait...it just takes a minute or two of playing with it...a crowd will gather...eager little hands will take the cylinder and start shaking and shaking until they start checking off the items they are locating!  It doesn't take long, and it's fun to watch the transformation from a simple cylinder to a fun and interesting game!
FUNCTIONALITY
Hmmm...sort of a tricky category to rate on.  Find It Sports Version is just a cylinder with pellets and tiny objects hidden inside.  On the other hand it can provide hour after hour of entertainment.  Play with it while watching television.  Play with it on a car ride.  You can pretty much play with it anywhere and everywhere!  Take all of that into account and we are certainly looking at a toy that is more functional that first appearances would suggest!
COST EFFICIENCY
In a blind survey we priced Find It Sports Edition right around $15.  With an actual retail price of just under $20, it is a little bit more expensive than we would have liked.  It is made well, and ready to provide hours of entertainment, when you consider those factors the pricing seems a bit more on point.

ORIGINALITY

We've seen seek and find books before...we've even seen seek and find puzzles...but we've never seen anything like this!  You'll find hours of agonizing fun with this original, entertaining little cylinder!
OVERALL RATING
We really, really enjoyed playing with Find It Games Sports Version.  It is certainly easy to use - but definitely difficult to solve totally!  It will provide hours and hours of fun for kids of all ages, and it will last a lifetime!  We're warning you - Find It Games is addictive-fun and frustration all wrapped in a cool cylinder!  We loved it!  You'll love it!  But don't say we didn't warn you!
