I have used OuiSi in several Professional Developments with school principals. It is a flexible tool that allows participants to make meaningful connections. I will continue to think about new and interesting ways to use the cards.

This is a beautiful game and an enriching experience. We love playing it with our creative 4 year old and it helps us hear how her brain works in a fun way. And there are no wrong answers, but it's useful to help guide her if her reasoning could use a little help or clarification. Good teaching tool! I'll buy this as a gift for all ages!

The photos are bright and striking. There are so many ways to play! We started with cooperative game play in my family to get used to the concept. It’s interesting to see the connections different people come up with.

We played non-competitively with 6 people, aged from 23 to 93 and had a great time. We bought it as a gift for Mom who is having some concentration issues. It was a hit, and provided a fun creative way for all of us to enjoy. We are buying another OuiSi for us to play!

It’s probably the most creative, imaginative game you can find. You can make pairings from anywhere your imagination takes you. Our 4-year old grandson, and my husband in I (in our 70s), had a wonderful time playing it. What people see in associations are extraordinary — from colors, to shapes, to designs and patterns — it’s simply great. We all worked together and it’s a team building exercise vs. competitive.

Absolutely beautiful photos on the cards! My children (3 and 5 years old) love to play games and talk about them. We ask them to find cards that go together, cards that have their favorite shapes or colors. It has really helped build their language skills. I am also planning on using them in my pre-k classroom in the future!

I enjoyed playing Ouisi with my family. We tried several versions and enjoyed all of them. I can see using the game with my students who are taught in an outdoor nature environment.

I haven't been able to do much with it yet, but I read the game ideas and love all of them! It seems like a great way to pass time with family and friends. I'm a teacher, and I think it would make good brain teaser / ice breaker activities for the classroom too.

We really enjoy playing as a family! The pictures are beautiful & the cards are sturdy enough for the excited five year old playing!! Love this game, so glad I found it! Thank you.

I love that this game has no winners. We just play it as a family and use our creativity to keep it going!! It's wonderful for my eight and six year old boys. Highly recommend!!

I am a teacher and parent to a 6 year old. We have played in an open style with our friends and family a few times. I appreciate that the game can be used to spark new connections in an open way and that you can choose to gamify the play if desired.

These cards are beautiful - very well made cards and gorgeous photos. I’m a lover of paper - I’d rather hold a book than read on a tablet, so this game is a real treat.

I purchased a Quisi for my grandkids who are 5 and 7 years of age. Their mom opened the box, did a cursory reading of the instructions and put the cards out for play. My 7 year old grandson played a game with his mom and then turned to me and said "My Mom taught me how to play, you want to play?" So we did -- was great fun and I love the fluid quality of the games. We made it work for us and had a fun time playing.

Played OuiSi for the first time with elderly parents, one of whom has dementia. We loved how all of us could play with such ease, and one of us mentioned (several times) how much fun it would be to play with the great-grandkids. We tried a few of the game suggestions and added/changed some “rules” to fit our needs. The perfect game for the entire family, offering endless enjoyment and entertainment! A very nice quality product, too!

My grandsons, ages 7 and 3 1/2 loved this game. We sorted by type (like pictures with metal in them), similar pictures, for example cards that have water or related to water, etc. The photos are beautiful and cards sturdy. I feel that they will play with these cards for many years.

Our family loves this game so much! We are Guardian ad Litems to 10 local foster children and have recently gifted one of our kiddos this game as a BD present. She loves it too!

We bought this to play with our granddaughters (15 and 11) during a long weekend visit. We all enjoyed it so much. It was interesting to hear the girls justify their matches. Some of their reasoning was very creative. We played the non-competitive game so there were no losers.

My first game of Ouisi was a gift for my daughter and her six year old son who wants to be a detective when he grows up. We played a version he made up finding pairs and even trios of matches out of the same set of cards. A Ouisi game will be on its way to my son's family soon! Thank you for creating the game and constructing the game cards and box so that they will stand up to years of joyful play!!!

Have “played” with grandkids and so far we’ve made up our own games. They have asked for it, so that’s a good indication that they like it. Looking forward to more editions.

3 generations - 5-64yo. - had a new kind of fun playing this game. We always have fun together imagining and sharing ideas but this game added another player- the pictures and their plan. Some bystanders did not join in bc there was no score some folks need a win/lose outcome.

This is a game for EVERYONE. My colorblind husband can play and all of my kids can play (including my special needs child). I love how flexible the game is so you can adapt to your own circumstances.

I'm "rolling out" Ouisi at Thanksgiving, but my sister and I "auditioned" it. We were quickly hooked! I think it will be good for a variety of ages and abilities. I'm looking forward to introducing it.

I work with adults with Autism and I was hoping the cards could be another way to connect and get some different experiences during our sessions. So far, I love the colors of the photographs, the sturdiness of the construction of the cards and the access to more information from the QR code on the back. I haven’t had them long, but I am excited and looking forward to exploring them in the future.

We had a ball figuring out what the photos were and discussing what we saw in the connections we were making. We had varied ages and abilities at the table, and everyone contributed and enjoyed it!

I use this game in a variety of setting in an elementary school. I have used it with ESL students, after school programs, and a variety of grades 1-6. Students (and adults) love this game.

My grandkids and I find new ways to enjoy every time we play! I love the photography and the way you can look online to see more about the picture. -Everett age 13 I like how they are all so different yet similar. -Lillian age 9

I’m a pediatric COTA and use this in my session with kids 5- 18. It engages clients of all ages and abilities, my coworkers borrow my set for sessions all the time!

My grandchildren love telling stories with these cards. I've handed them out as an opener at parties with adults to help them find connections with each other. I used it in homeschooling my grandson so he could get a sense for how connections are made and what to look for in his history lessons.

I am a former art teacher with two very visually inclined young children. In an effort to compete with constant screentime, I ordered Ouisi on a whim off of instagram. I'm so glad I did!! This is part game, part meditation, part collage... So many different things all at once. It's a great quality product with a lot to offer. I'd recommend it to anyone.

We had such fun matching the pictures together with our nine-year-old grandson. He was fascinated with figuring out how to match every single card either by color, shape, or function until every card was placed in a long line. He spent two hours with the cards during his first session of play. It was fascinating to hear his reasons for the matches. This is a wonderful game with no mention of screen time, which is a huge plus.

This was really fun and both friends and their children enjoyed the game at the same time. Very chilled out, don’t have to worry too much about rules and nice to just play while chatting and enjoying a drink.

We used OuiSi for an activity with teachers at our back to school in-service. It was great fun, and many teachers have now checked out our OuiSi game for their own classroom activities. It can be used in so many ways!

I brought mine to my neighbor's house and five of us gathered around her kitchen island and just improvised our own game: 10 cards each, one starter card on the table, each added a card that matched: conceptually, functionally, color-wise, etc. Great opportunity to be creative and just chat and connect.

OuiSi arrived just in time for 2 weeks of visiting grandchildren. The age range was 7-11. I showed them the getting starting games and they all loved the freedom and creativity allowed. Pretty soon they invited the neighbor kids over!!

I use Ouisi in my work at an addiction treatment center for women. I have used the game to help them identify images that correspond to how they felt in the height of their addiction, how they feel in treatment, and how they hope to feel in a future marked by sobriety.

We love this game! My partner and I play it with our 4yr old grandson who loves finding literal matches of color or shape. Sometimes the 3 of us get so involved looking at all the images and talking about them that the conversation takes over the game. So fun!

Everyone can play, from kids to grannies. Oui-Si encourages seeing more deeply and unconventionally, and thinking about the odd connections between and among images. Then, it encourages conversation among all the players about that seeing and thinking. We do not keep any kind of score, so there is no competition, and players help one another. We like it!

My grandkids and I love Ouisi! We played some of the suggested games, and we also made up some games of our own. With so many different cards, the possibilities are endless.

Our 5 year old really enjoys playing with us! The perfect balance of simplicity and thoughtfulness making it a perfect game to quickly pull out and play without time or energy constraints. A fun bonding experience to see how each player interprets what they're looking at and the associations made between each picture.

The visuals on both the Original OuiSi and the OuiSi Nature series are fascinating and beautiful. It is wonderful the way people of different ages can interact with the cards and each person sees another type of connection! I have seen 5 year olds up through adults engage in playing different games. I love it so much that I bought sets for my daughter who is a teacher and my friends all over the country.
