Kanoodle has done it again!
As a longtime Kanoodle fan, I know that any new version is sure to be a brain-busting smash, and I'm happy to say that Shape Escape is no exception. Educational Insights just can't miss when it comes to creating the ultimate addicting brain teasers! This puzzle really takes spatial reasoning to a whole new level, especially when you get to the higher-level challenges. It takes the classic vertical shape-fitting gameplay of Tetris and adds a new dimension (literally). Each piece can fit in so many different ways depending on which direction you turn it. Then, of course there's the moving wall, which adds another layer of difficulty. Kanoodle Ultimate Champion has a timer, too, but you can always keep solving when it runs out. With Shape Escape, you better watch out for the wall so it doesn't knock your pieces down! It's intense, it's fun, and it's SO satisfying. All the best parts of Kanoodle, plus a little extra! A must-play.

So fun and so addicting
This game is great for wanting to stay entertained while getting away from the screen time. It's so engaging, it's like a Rubik's cube and makes me question my own level of spatial awareness!
