"This is a great teaching toy to teach children how to use strategic thinking. The packaging itself is sturdy and great for storing the game. The bag inside is a positive addition to store the chips. Storage is always a positive attribute to a game."

"This game fostered a competitive yet healthy atmosphere to see how fast each player could get their chosen token color of blue, red, green or yellow and four tokens of the same color or the wild card down on the board. It is rather addicting, for once you get a handle on how the game is played, the excitement is seeing how fast you can get four of your chosen token colors lined up without letting on to your competitors what your color is."

"The positive characteristics of this product are that it is fun and challenging. Trying to bluff the other players is a fun part of the game. Most 7 year olds did not understand how to bluff but it was fun teaching them. The game is multi-generational and got everyone involved, including my 87 year old mother-in-law who (we now realize) can bluff like a poker player. The box is well made and the board folds perfectly flat. The black bag with all the pieces in it is a mother’s and teacher’s dream. Adults get tired of picking up playing pieces and trying to decide which game they should be in. Great all inclusive box idea. Even the “open here” reminder on the box is great packaging. It was fun playing this game."

"BeFOUR You Know plays extremely well. The more strategic you like your games, the more you will enjoy BeFOUR You Know. Simply put, this is a very strong strategy based game - and the more you play it the more you will appreciate how it works. Add in additional players, and as our review team found out, this game can be both exhilarating and exasperating!"

"The directions were easy to understand. Younger children could use it to learn colors. Tokens are sturdy and could be used in other ways."

"This is a very fast-moving, fun game. It was easy to learn the rules. You have to pay attention to the baord as the pieces begin to fill it and think of strategies as you're playing."
-edplay review
"This is a wonderful family game and perfect for the ages recommended, 7 and up. It comes in a nice square box that is well packaged and perfect for the game shelf. The great thing is, the game doesn't take a long time, so, younger children with short attention spans can play without problem. You can play one game or several games if you want to go longer, it's all up to you."
