★★★★★
This was a lot of fun, and it was good exercise. I recommend.
★★★★★
we had a ton of fun doing the quest with one catch, the score screen gave us results as if we were in competition with each, but we did the whole thing cooperatively, so that was an unsatisfying conclusion. I think it would be better if at the beginnng, you chose cooperative or competitive mode and the the score screen reflected that. we were waiting for each other to enter answers, not trying to race each other.
★★★★★
