Reviewers praise Mixed Emotions as an engaging, durable and adaptable tool for children, adolescents and therapy settings — a strong conversation starter and check-in that builds emotional vocabulary, self-awareness and empathy. Some users found the provided scenarios limited; others said it’s less game-like (some boys prefer more competitive play) and is most effective after rapport is built.
