Gobblet on the Go is a great, straight-forward game to develop a variety of visual memory and strategic thinking skills. In a twist on the classic game of tic-tac-toe, players must place three in a row before their opponent, but the game pieces come in three different sizes so a player can put a new piece on an empty space OR cover a piece already on the board with a larger piece. The pieces are sturdy and will be easy for most students to cover and uncover, but could be challenging for students who have very weak fine and/or visual motor skills. Students with visual weaknesses might have difficulty judging the different piece sizes. Most students should find this game fun yet challenging, and want to play more as they improve.
