Bought this for my grandchildren age 9 and 4, and it was a great hit, with them even inventing new games as they went along. Great to see how they could find connections, use their imagination and argue their case. Love it

I played this with friends one evening. It's non-competitive and really fun to explore one's own and others' ideas.

Fun and definitely different! Love the concept and that it illustrates how we look at the world from so many perspectives. Plan to use it in personality workshops for this reason. Hope to see more innovative concepts from you soon....
Bev
Excellent creative visual play/game

Planned a fast action type game to encourage mobility for a near chair-bound senior invalid. Used all the cards and covered the whole table - lots of reaching and a few suspect choices but all added fun interlude into an otherwise inactive afternoon.

It’s the perfect game/ box of fun to bring out and see people of all ages and abilities enjoy playing together.
The variety of games that can be played makes it far more flexible and fun in use.
We noticed how differently people of varying personality types played.
It’s a perfect game to enjoy with everyone.
Jackie H.
It's a really interesting game because there are lots of cards which have similarities to others and can therefore be played next to them. Players have to reason about why this card fits and not that one.
The pieces are good quality board and the game should last a good long time. Also can be played by a range of ages.

Bought this for my son and his partner at Christmas. He sent a message a few days later with a photo of the cards they'd played so far on the table and saying they really love it!

I bought it for a seniors club games week. 4 of us played and it prompted so much discussion!
We lived it.
Sandy B.
Well made and easy to use, ask to be handled carefully, so I would not use with younger children or those likely to chew them.
Donna
Great game, easy to understand but also challenging to all ages
Laura N.
We bought Ouisi as a family game for Christmas. I love the detailed pictures and how it got my children thinking and talking about how the cards were connected. Very pleased we got it, highly recommend
Lisa G.
We absolutely love this game ! Best fun, laughed so hard and pushed us to think and be creative.
Rebecca
I didn’t receive this order please can you help
Charles T.
I already sent you a review so stop asking me
Susan C.
We simply can't understand how to play it. Very disappointed.
Kay S.
Great game, with many ways to play, as there are no real rules. Can be adapted for all ages and abilities.
The photo cards are fascinating and beautful. Encourages thinking outside the box.

We played this for the first time on Boxing Day with a family group, including teenagers and twenty-somethings. Everyone was engaged and felt able to join in and contribute ideas and suggestions for connections. It ended up being a game where we all naturally helped each other to see possible connections.
So far, there has only been one image that we haven't been able to work out and part of me would like captions... but then again, we had as many ideas of what it could be as there were participants (six), so maybe it's better not to know for sure to avoid constraining the imagination.
Having emailed a few weeks ago to find out when OuiSi would be available in the UK, I've been very impressed with the prompt responses and speedy delivery. I'm tempted to also buy the Nature edition! Thank you.

I bought the game as a family Christmas present, because my mum has dementia and struggles to participate in traditional "rules based" games. The photos are so varied and interesting, and everyone was able to make their own individual connections. Funnily enough, it was my mum who kept asking "How do you WIN this game?!". The great thing was that we were all winners!
Pam P.
We played this with our two daughters on Christmas Day. We all agreed that the photos are beautiful and were amazed at how many there are. We played a 2 simple games with 10 cards each and we didn’t pick one up after putting one down. They Iasted just the right amount of time and we all agreed that you really have to use your eyes and imagination. Really enjoyable.
Nick M.
Really *really* disappointed with this lifeless collection of pictures.
I gave it as a gift to a visually-oriented person who flicked through the pictures and put them straight back in the box, didn't understand the point of it. Lovely presentation, flashy rulebook, but ultimately very disappointing.
I'm regretting buying the second box of nature pics, as I know they'll never be looked at.
And I could have spent that £50 (Yes! Ridiculously overpriced) on many other lovely things, myself included.
Biggest disappointment of Christmas: avoid.
Lynn V.
The pictures are a really good idea and thanks for introducing your new game to all of us and I would love it if you can make another good one just like the one you have invented already.
Rosemary F.
Really loved by our 5 year old Granddaughter
Sharon R.
We've played a few different games now and are finding some of them brilliant. I can definitely see OuiSi coming along with us to family holidays and home education groups this year
Sue W.
Very good quality. Only used once so far. Needs more experience to appreciate its diversity. Hoping it will be enjoyed for many years
Diane M.
Bought as a Christmas gift and have received no comments from recipients yet.

Excellent quality - photos and cards …. I’m looking forward to using the activity in my Aphasia group.
Alison S.
Excellent quality product. Brilliant for developing thinking and verbal skills. Also, some fascinating photos!
Jane D.
Lovely ideas to engage my mum who has dementia.
Francesca D.
I had been thinking about purchasing OuiSi and OuiSi nature for some time and treated myself at Christmas. I have to say the family aren't keen as they are board and computer game players. This doesn't worry me as I am content to play a basic connecting dominoes type game by myself and I am sure I will find other people to play with. Additionally I like the meditative/mindfulness element and the images can be thought provoking, what, why, how etc. The packaging and cards are top quality. I will recommend it to friends and to those who are involved with people with dementia.
Zelda R.
It’s a fun visual game ! We really enjoyed playing it as a drawing game. It was was amusing to see how we could use our imaginations to incorporate the pictures into totally different settings .
Norah M.
Lots of fun over Christmas with myself at 76yrs thru to my grandson of 6yrs. Some of his connecting ideas were extraordinary. Great game for mixed ages.
Pearl W.
I bought it for my friend’s twins for Christmas so haven’t heard how they got on yet, but my friend loved what she read about it. I’ve also passed the details on to 2 other friends who were so bowled over by the concept, they ordered it too .
Fiona O.
It's OK, but does not live up to the hype
Barbara C.
To be honest ,we haven't played the game yet. I bought the sets to use as references for practising my art skills! The subject matters are fantastic.The cards are of great quality as is the box and packaging, very nicely presented.
When we have more time I will play with the kids etc.
Sheryl F.
A lovely gentle game to play with family without pressure and to start conversations. And I love to get the cards out to kick off creativity in my brain. Interesting pictures. High quality product. I love it!

Great game for all the family. A

We took OuiSi as an extra gift for our family Christmas. All adults: a mixture of serious games enthusiasts and those who don't usually join in the games. All eleven of us filled the dining table with a marvellous layout of cards on Christmas afternoon. Just matching themes, colours and composition. Not really competitive, but creative and great fun. We don't think the same group would want to play with the same packs of cards very often, or frequently. Some obvious pairings were getting familiar after a few run throughs. However, I'm sure the game will come out with other groups of friends, and will also work with children. A great addition to our family games options.
Vivien H.
Great fun played with 9 people and then again with only two

I bought this to give to my daughter, her partner and children aged 4 and 6. It is a game even the youngest could play easily - no wrong answers and no upset at not "winning". I like how it encourages associative thinking.
Bev S.
This first round of OuiSi was creatively open and really engaging. We look forward to more rounds this new year.
Ann M.
I’ve been looking at this game for a while. Bought it as a pre Christmas present to play with my grandchildren aged 9 and 6.When they were younger we played many games.Now they spend a lot of time on their iPads.
Once we opened the Ouisi box they were both fully engaged. We spread the tiles on the floor and quickly spread out. The conversation and reasoning as to why they were using certain tiles flowed: it wasn’t long before their father joined us on the floor .
On the following day they instigated another game. A different shape, more reasons to link them, chatter and laughter. Suddenly it was lunchtime! Very high quality tiles.Well worth the money . We’re all looking forward to getting together again soon to have another game. Excellent product.
Jane H.
Still new but has promise for informal gatherings
Keith G.
OuiSi was totally new to me but with a little bit of effort, on everyones part at the beginning, it became a firm favourite over Christmas.
Nicola
I cannot remember the last time I bought a board game that had a plastic insert. But ... this one has, which is extremely annoying and impossible to understand given that all the cards are the same size and no fancy insert is needed. Beggars belief. Very disappointed!
The game is ok. But the presentation lets it down.

Already played this with our 4 year old granddaughter and we had a lot of fun. Totally open play and great for all ages.
