Even though Pizza Mania is technically an Early Math game, to my boys its just a fun game. It is a game that comes with four plastic pieces and pizza toppings, everything being quite durable! The game also comes with a pizza chef which is a plastic pizza guy who talks you through the game! He does require 3 AAA batteries, which are not included and his Italian voice makes my boys laugh. There are only two buttons on him, Start and Game so it is quite simple for my boys to play, but I do have to get them started as there are two games to choose from.
The first game, Pizza Party, is more for beginners (or younger players) as it uses basic adding and subtracting by 1-3 toppings. The chef tells players what toppings to add or take away from their pizzas.
The second game, Pizza Panic, is for more advanced players. It is basically the same as the first game but faster.
The games last about a minute and at the end of the game the chef will tell you what should be left on your pizza, whoever's pizza matches wins! So yes there can be more than one winner! I really like that there (hopefully) isn't just one winner, as so many games are about competition but this game is more about self-confidence and paying attention. It encourages players to pay attention, listen to directions and not necessarily compete. While it is for 2-4 players (ages 4 and up) , really one person can play on their own to practice. My 3 year old loves to make the pizzas on his own and he is slowly understanding that he needs to listen to the pizza chef's directions.

Love this toy! As a former teacher, now a childcare provider, I would recommend this toy! The pieces are rubber and extremely cute! Excellent for teaching children to follow directions and learning to realize its ok to not always be correct, so long as they tried. Only thing I'd recommend is maybe a clearer voice from pizza man. You can understand him fine just could be a little clearer. But love the concept!!
