## Questions & Answers

**Q: Just wondering, due to the style of the game, is it one where you’ll remember all the answers so won’t be fun after a few plays?**
A: Nope. I don't think so at least. My daughter is quite savey when it comes to remembering things like this and because the cards are randomly shuffled and there are so many different types of puzzles on each card it makes it quite difficult to remember. I suppose after playing it for years and years you may remember if you have that type of brain but that has yet to happening with us. 
Hope this helps!

**Q: Is there a limited amount of games possible?**
A: To us, yes. But since we liked it we bought two and joined them for longer play.

**Q: What is the difference between cortex challenge mlv and versions 2 and 3 please?**
A: I only bought 1 and 3.  Both are fun really. We joined them together for longer play ;)
