Consequences is a multifaceted educational game for ages three and up. The game consists of a deck of Consequences cards, a die, playing pieces, game board, and instructions. All components are packaged in a typical cardboard playing box.

The object of Consequences is to be the first player to reach Waterland. The instructions are clear and easy to understand. Two alternative game instructions are included.

I opened the Consequences game and let my four children (5 to 15) set it up and play. My 9 year old was able to read and follow the directions. We have played this game repeatedly over the past 4 weeks and my 9 and 5 year old children really like it. It does not appeal as much to the 13 and 15 year old, but they will play, so it is not unpleasant to them.

Consequences cards include the following, and more, good and bad behaviors: 'You followed directions the first time you were asked!!',' You remembered to wash you hands?Awesome' , 'You said please and thank you?excellent', 'You didn't interrupt?you are super', 'You didn't go to bed on time when you were asked', and 'You didn't pick up your toys?uh oh!!'. Each card contains some clues for non-readers so they could play by themselves. Good behavior cards entitle the player to roll the die and move ahead, while the bad behavior cards have the player rolling the die and moving backwards. This movement reinforces the consequences of good and bad behavior. The deck includes two of each card plus 6 blank cards so you could also play a memory game.

If you like board games and you want to reinforce consequences for good and bad behavior, you will probably like Consequences.
