The Fast Paced Animal-Themed Guessing Game Gets Kids Thinking, Asking Questions, and Discovering Fascinating Wildlife Facts

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Skillmatics, the global brand transforming everyday play into meaningful learning, announces that Skillmatics Guess in 10 National Geographic has been named a winner in the PARENTS 2026 Best Toy Awards. The latest edition of Skillmatics' award-winning Guess in 10 game brings the excitement of the original to the animal kingdom, combining strategic questioning with National Geographic photography and fascinating wildlife facts. The full list of winners can be found on parents.com.

Building on the popularity of Skillmatics' Guess in 10, which has held a #1 ranking on Amazon with a 4.7-star Amazon rating from more than 28,500 reviewers, the National Geographic edition takes the guessing game into the animal kingdom. Players take turns asking up to 10 yes-or-no questions to identify the mystery animal, using clues about characteristics, habitats, and behaviors to narrow down the possibilities. Players can also use Clue Cards strategically and race to be the first to collect seven Game Cards.

"Some of the best family learning happens when nobody realizes they're learning," said Devanshi Kejriwal Sheth, co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Skillmatics. "You'll have a child ask a question about an animal, an older sibling confidently make a guess, and then suddenly everyone is debating whether a penguin counts as a bird that can fly. That back-and-forth is what makes Guess in 10 so special. Kids are using what they know, adults get pulled into the conversation, and every question can lead to a new discovery. With National Geographic, we're giving families even more reasons to be curious together."

The game includes 50 Game Cards, six Clue Cards, a Card Holder, and an instruction manual, and is designed for two or more players or teams ages 6 and up. With an average 20-minute playtime, Guess in 10 National Geographic combines animal trivia and strategy while encouraging communication, logical thinking, problem-solving, decision-making, and curiosity, all in a lightweight, screen-free format.

The award-winning Skillmatics Guess in 10 National Geographic is designed for family play and retails for $24.97 on Amazon.
