Summary: Simply awesome!! 2008-10-26
Comment: My six-year old (and I) love this game. We even make negative numbers thanks to Poseidon (which requires you to subtract 10). My son has gotten into Greek mythology and likes math, so this game is ideal for him. We also make up stories using all the different gods and godesses. Another hit by Gamewright!

Summary: A pretty fun game 2008-10-10
Comment: This game was not quite as interesting as some of Gamewright's other ones. The rules are a little awkward, but it's still a good game. There's the mythological figures and you basically have to do a little math every time you play. It's worth checking out, but I enjoyed FrogJuice, Loot, and even Sleeping Queens more.

Summary: Fun Game and Educational 2008-04-21
Comment: We played this game and really enjoyed it. My son, age 6, loved it, although he needed a lot of help as he's not quite up to reading all the cards. He had a great time and couldn't wait to capture Zeus! So far, we have enjoyed every Gamewright game that we've ordered: Castle Keep, Rat A Tat Cat, Mummy Rummy & Slamwich.

Summary: Great Game 2008-02-03
Comment: I'm a speech pathologist and the kids I work with love this game. Younger students practice their math skills by keeping a total of Mt. Olympus (on paper), while older students enjoy the challenge of remembering the total as the game is played. A great game for elementary-aged kids.

Summary: Zues on the Loose ROCKS!! 2007-11-19
Comment: This is one of many Gamewright games I've gotten to play with my kids, and is one of my very favorites! It is simple, you try to get Mt. Olympus (the discard pile) to add up to 100, and have Zeus with you when it gets there. Full of fun card like reverse the total, subtract 10, round to the nearest 10 along with the regular numbered cards. It's so much fun that you forget that your kid is using their math skills. My husband is a teacher and plays this in his classroom. You can't go wrong with this game!
