The Box & Components:
Googol is a card game. It comes in a compact box that is easy to carry. The box inlays keep the cards safe. In our opinion that the inlays could have grip grooves for the cards for easy accessibility to the cards.
The cards have simple graphics. The makers have not tried including over-the-top elements to distract from the game. The cards are laminated and have rounded corners to avoid cuts.
The Game:
Googol means 10 raised to the power 100. Seems simple? Just imagine the actual value. Googol is a game just like that. Easy to explain but it is not so easy to score, especially seeing as the players are not playing individually.
The players will be scratching their heads to calculate the solution while each player continuously flips open new cards. The makers have two variations including short and long plays for the players so that at no point, they are bored of the game.

The entertainment sneaks up on you with this game. The players can use any basic mathematical operation which opens up wide possibilities. Googol is a great educational game but it can also be a great entertaining game for all ages.
