If you have never played this game you should try it. I play this with my 8 year old son and it has helped with his maths tremendously. He finds it fun to play and doesn’t realise he is learning at the same time. Every school should have a couple of these to be honest for maths lessons.
Used as a drinking game by my nephew.
Wir haben es als Trinksspiel umgemodelt. Perfekt.
