Do you enjoy playing games with the family? My family and I love playing games, and we do it often. We are always out to look for new ones too. The ones that we seem to enjoy most, are those that are a bit challenging. I love a great challenge. That’s why these puzzle games from SmartGames are just what my family needed.
We have the Cube Puzzler Go, Cube Puzzler Pro and the Sleeping Beauty Deluxe games from SmartGames. All of these games are challenging, and I’d say they’re more challenging for children, which is why I recommend them for children, but the cubes are actually great for everyone. They were a bit of a challenge for me even.
All SmartGames, like the just-released Sleeping Beauty maze, draw on various cognitive skills as players solve the dozens of challenges. Look on each game box where brainy benefits are clearly marked from logic and concentration to problem solving and spatial insight.
When playing either the Cube Puzzler GO or more difficult Cube Puzzler PRO, kids and adults can try up to 80 different challenges! Start with the easy puzzles and see how long it takes to become an expert while moving the 3D game pieces.
The SmartGames Cube Puzzler PRO is a bit of a challenge, but a lot of fun too. There is a square cube that you have to try to piece these pieces all together with. You have to set them in their so that they all fit correctly. They should all fit in the cube if they’re done correctly. There are different levels where some are more challenging than others. They do have some photos to show you how you’re suppose to put them in the cube though, so that is extremely helpful for this.

The SmartGames Cube Puzzler GO is also very fun and challenging. I think this one may be a bit easier than the PRO just because they’re square-shaped and not circles. This makes it a bit easier to get the pieces to fit together. This is the same concept as the PRO one, beside it being squares instead of the circles. I like this one for my daughters because it’s a bit simpler for them. Sometimes challenges can be a bit tricky, but that’s what I really love about these cubes.

SmartGames Sleeping Beauty is much different from the other two games. This one is a maze. For this maze game, you’re trying to get the prince to reach the castle, or you can try to get the princess to get out of the castle. Either way, it’s a lot of fun. There is another way you can play this as well. You have a dragon who is going to try to block the way. For this game, you want to try to find the correct placement for the dragon. There are a couple of different ways this dragon can go, and you want to make it so that the princess can’t escape or make it to the castle. You actually want the dragon to try to stop her. We prefer to play this game with the dragon. We love it this way because it becomes a bit more challenging and we don’t want anyone to get in or out of the castle.
- A great brain game for young children
- 48 challenges plus a family-friendly picture book
- Challenges utilize key cognitive skills
- Navigate the maze or play as the dragon and block the path!
- For Ages 3 and up, Easy to Expert Challenges
If you’re looking for some fun, challenging games, I’d highly recommend giving SmartGames a look. These three games we have are a lot of fun, and my whole family enjoys playing them. My kids love playing with the maze one the most since it’s a bit easier for them. We love a great challenge in our house!
