Cortex + Challenge (2018)

About this game

Cortex + Challenge tests up to 2-6 players’ memory, cognition, and sensory perception. It even includes texture cards that are used during "touch challenges" in which players must guess what they are feeling, adding a unique element that is often neglected in games. Winning challenges allows players to add pieces to their brain 3D puzzle which they must complete before their opponents in order to win the game. This game contains 170 new cards, including 9 new challenges and can be mixed with cortex 1, cortex 2, and/ cortex 3

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.2/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 8 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
