Mystery Garden
From the Publisher...
Let´s Play! Randomly place the 48 picture cards face down around the game board. The youngest player begins by picking up any one of the picture cards they choose, being sure not to show it to any of the other players. This picture card shows an exact picture of an object on the game board. The other players try to guess the object by asking "yes" or "no" questions. After each question, the single playing piece is moved along the path in the mystery garden. The player who correctly guesses the object shown on the picture card keeps that card and draws another one from around the game board. Then the questions begin again. If no one has guesses the object by the time the playing piece reaches the castle, the player answering the questions keeps the picture card and draws another one and the questioning starts over. The player with the most picture cards at the end of the game wins. What Do You Learn? Recognition, association, deductive reasoning

| Mystery Garden is something as rare as a deduction game for children. It reminds me of a game I used to play as a child, called 20 questions for the professor, where one child would think of a thing and the other would have to ask questions to determine what it is. Mystery Garden brings this mechanic to board game form, with nice pictures and a small story element to it. It is a simple game, but it is fun and it teaches deductive reasoning to your youngest. |
