"Thank you very much for offering the Team Blink Challenge! My Girl Scout troop has enjoyed it tremendously. It was fascinating to watch the girls achieve a new level and then encourage the others to try also. The game really brought the girls closer together and taught them how to work as a team to improve the individual as well as the team. I'm happy we took advantage of the Challenge!"

Learning Magazine, Teachers' Choice Awards, July 2003

"BLINK was introduced to me by a friend. We had such a great time playing it, that I went out & bought it the next day. :-) Since then I have taught at least 5 of my friends to play, and they have bought it too! It is such a fun game. It is easy to learn and doesn't take long to play. :-) I am an avid gamer, and this one is climbing to the top of my list! Keep up the great work. I look forward to trying some of your other games as well."

Ricki Block agreed, "Blink is just a great attribute game."
