The New Touch: A Game of Sensory Perception & Memory

This is a fabulous game!! It's simply great fun to try to identify items by touch -- our family was astonished at how hard it was at first, and at how quickly it became easy. In fact, it's so much fun that we usually just play the game for its own sake and don't even keep score, which is an absolute first for this competitive bunch.

One of the best features of The Touch is that there truly is no advantage in being an adult when playing against the kids, and so this is something that everyone in the family can play together with an equal chance of success. In fact, our 2-year old is one of the most eager players -- when it's his turn, we open up the top and he has to find the objects by sight, which is still plenty of fun for him.

We keep The Touch in the dining room and one parent will play a short round with the kids while the other parent is getting dinner together -- it's great for keeping everyone entertained together without involving the tv. Get this game -- no matter what age or type of group that you would be playing with it, you're certainly going to have a great time!

I purchased this game for my 6 year old daughter for Christmas. Everyone wanted to play it. Age is no advantage here. This game is fast paced, different every time and totally fun.
All these random pieces are in the dome,you spin for a card to see what you need to find, the timer is set and you have to feel(not look)for the pieces on your card as well as the pieces on your opponents cards. You have to have all the pieces on the card to keep the card, otherwise your opponent may find the last piece and get to keep your card. My kids love this game, their friends love this game and all the adults visiting us at Christmas loved this game.
In addition, there are multiple expansion sets when you need more challenge which hasn't happened yet for us.
GREAT GAME!

Okay, I was really excited to play this game with my kids too. But I was disappointed. The first problem is, when you stick your hand in the unit, it slides all over the place (they should have placed suction cups on the bottom). The lid kept coming off, so we were constantly holding down the lid to keep the unit still. Another problem is that the cards do not stay in place because the unit kept sliding around, so I was rearranging the cards the whole time. When you are playing with a 5 yr old, it is best to use only half of the pieces. The price was not right for this game. I feel like I overpaid about $15.00. You could probably buy a bunch of plastic toys and put them in a jar and make up your own game and have more fun.

This game was so much fun to play! My granddaughters (6 and 4) loved it! A bit harder for the 4 year old but she still enjoys playing. We didn't use the timer at first but now they ask for it to be on. Great game for learning as well. A very good buy!

This game is great! At first the kids were a little hesitant that it could actually be fun. Once we started playing, they all got into the exploration adventure zone. There are so many pieces, I think we can last a long time before ordering another set. But its nice to know there is an expansion set available. The hand opening could be a little bigger for "father-size" hands though
