  • Great selection of games

    The kids loved the games.
    The only downside is that not all games come with a storage bag, so it’s easy to loose parts.

  • Stocking stuffers or party favors

    The adult "kids" got a kick out of them too. Made some into key chains.
    Don't take up much room keep in the car for long trips with kids as a change up from electronic games.

    Such a great collection of games to take with you anywhere. There are all the classics and some fun new ones I wasn't familiar with.

  • Fun but small

    Are fun little games but are extremely small for the older eyes lol. Can’t see them lasting more than one road trip before tiny parts go missing.

      You are paying a low price to receive something, you don’t mind throwing away at the end of the trip. Do not expect the Sun and the Moon.

    • Just like you remember, for better or worse.

      Exactly like the games I had as kid, which also means that pieces will end up getting lost, regardless of how careful you are. Still fun , classic games to take with on trips or poor weather.

      Great value for the price. We haven't used them yet as they are a Christmas gift for our son, but they look durable and well made. We think he will love them!

    • Great for travel.

      The stickers came off board pieces quickly, rendering the game obsolete. If pieces were more durable then this idea of travel games has meritt. Very cheaply made.

    • Very poorly made

      I had these as a child so I got them for my kids for car rides and they are just really flimsy and poorly made. They were cheap so I guess it would be okay for a single trip but for wanting they for regular use in the car I’d look for something at a much higher quality. Each game got about 3 uses before the game board was disfigured and the magnets were falling out.

    • Save your money

      The idea of this is good, but the quality wasn't worth it. The boar slides out of the spots, the plastic boxes break easily, and some of the rules of some of the games are hard to understand or not fully explained.

    • Poor Quality

      I was so excited about these for travel. When they arrived we realized the magnets are weak and the pieces are to big for the games. It was very disappointing. It is impossible to play some games with the provided game pieces.

    • Too small to handle and read.

      The game selection is great but the pieces are too small to work with and you almost need a magnifying glass to read the writing on the game boards. Magnets do keep things in place for travel.

    • Even cheap can still mean good games

      Let's be honest: the build quality of these games is predictably abysmal. The boards are flimsy, the pieces may be a bit wonky, and when you pay cheap, you get cheap. That said, however, you do get a dozen great games here, including timeless classics that will keep people of all ages entertained. The point to keep in mind is that you're never (I hope!) going to use this set as your primary board game collection at home (please don't!!), but for travelling, especially when space may be at a premium, this is a handy set to have. Stick a few in a bag and they'll take up almost no room at all. Even an airplane's fold down tray can easily accommodate these boards. The magnetic boards hold the pieces reasonably well. And for rather little money you're able to bring your favorite board games along wherever you're going to have some time to kill and want to enjoy that time doing something fun. I bring mine to work with me to have something to do during breaks. One can overlook this set's shortcomings for the sake of portability; after all, there's far more to a game than the materials you're playing it with.

    • Disappointed

      Disappointed in the design. The magnets don’t work well and fall off. The pieces in some of the games are incorrect (checkers pieces were all red instead of red and black, pieces missing from the ludo, etc).

    • Worthless

      I do mission trips to Guatemala and I wanted to bring little gifts as we usually do to give out to the kids. The directions were nonexistent and the product was cheap which is fine because it came in bulk- but there are literally no instructions and how to play any of these games so this was worthless for me to buy.

    • All parts are plastic and very small! Not great quality

      Was hoping for a better quality product. Pieces are so tiny they wouldn't last one game with kids, never mind a whole car trip. Love the idea, but if the boxes were made of metal and had better way to store the pieces it would be worth the price.

    • Way too small

      I thought I would try these. But way too small. Half the games I feel like you cant play because they are two small. And you get two of the same game! And the dice isn’t magnetic.
