What Parents Need to Know

About The Tuttles Madcap Misadventures

Parents need to know that by purchasing this game, at least half of the proceeds will go to the Starlight charity. If you purchase the boxed version, fifty percent of the cost goes to the charity, while with the downloadable version (www.tuttlesfamilygame.com), the charitable amount rises to seventy-five percent. Because the game can be played on three levels of difficulty, it is a game the whole family can enjoy.
