    Look for the new version of this game instead. This one is discontinued
    I would give this 5 stars but because it is discontinued, when you download the "free" app to play you have to pay $20 for a subscription☹ apparently there are new versions that come with a free subscription. I didn't know that. Look for the new version instead! Btw it comes in a really nice and sturdy box plus it has 9 compartments inside to keep your colors organized. Really well made!
