Loving dice and discovering these - I just had to have some!I stumbled upon a video on YouTube where this game was being demonstrated by the inventors. (I'd never heard of it) At first, like most people I guess, I was a little sceptical as to whether it would be the success it appeared it could be when I actually came to have a go myself. We're all a little shy I guess, and so the thought of rolling random images on cubes, and then having to `link' those images up to tell some kind of story (which could easily be nonsense - depending on what was rolled!) sounded a bit embarrassing to say the least... However; I thought I'd give these a go; not least because I love games involving dice (and these are nothing but dice with images instead of numbers, and so were so appealing to me) and also the fact that the people I saw playing with them seemed to really to be enjoying themselves!Having ordered my set - I couldn't wait to received them I was so eager and ready to go - and I wasn't disappointed! The very first throw, gave me quite an amazing set of images that I was fortunate enough to be able to think of a `link' without too much thought, which was good, as I would think a bad set of images on the very first go might influence newbies into thinking this may not be a good idea - but as it was, because of my good experience, in the very first instant my confidence and imagination had both `fired'! I then was surprised yet again when introducing them to my partner, who doesn't really enjoy dice games as much as myself, and who I thought would be pretty hopeless at it - proved to be much better than myself!Okay; they are a little expensive (and dice always are) but they ARE excellent quality (and so they should be) they come in a very neat little box with a magnetic fastener, and there are `expansion' sets.All in all a VERY good product; a challenging and imaginative game that I think is good for both young and old alike, and particularly for elderly people, in that it would be a great way to be sure their minds remained active!Five stars for a wonderful, useful and enjoyable little idea!

Brilliant, kids absolutely love them. We use them for creative writing as kids are homeschooled. They found English lessons much more fun with them. Really durable and come with a plastic storage box. We have ordered Batman ones too

I adore these story cubes! I had never heard of them until a friend told me all about them and brought her child's story cubes (this actual product) around to me to show me them. I was immediately impressed by the quality of the box as they come in a very strong, well designed box, closing with a magnetic strip. The interior of the box has not been ignored and looks very elegant and expensive, nothing has been spared in creating these. The cubes themselves have defined images that allow for multiple inferences. For example, a footprint could be used as "As we walked further, we came across an enormous footprint" or a child could simply use it as "We then went for a walk" because it is a foot. It is totally adaptable and dependent on the child or indeed adult using them...won't lie, I will be playing with these for my own muse and also to show my children what fun can be had.I am more interested in resources like these lately as I am now a Home Educator and have been for almost a year. One of my daughters(9 years old) is very resistant and had many issues at school resulting in extreme anxiety. When she is faced with a large task such as "Write a story about a man with a horse" she completely melts down and can not even start due to the anxiety and magnitude of the task. However once we received these story cubes, which I must say arrived so fast that I had not time to tell my friend I had purchased them and simply messaged her to tell them they were here as they arrived the next day, she was the first to want to try them.This set was purchased with two extension packs, the mythic and intergalactic ( I think they are named). I printed off some pretty bordered paper and off she went writing two full pages of story which plainly showed how much the cubes had helped. She had a smile on her face and thoroughly enjoyed using them. Anyone with an anxious child will understand the value of this.I look forward to using these cubes consistently with my children for many years to come and I feel so lucky to have them. They have unlocked my children's imaginations in a way they can express.
