Customer Reviews

Mind the gap
This is a very good compilation of board games, from the classics (Chess, Backgammon) to the more obscure.
There are a few classics noticably missing (9-mens-morris, hearts) but it is good to see a range of more unusual titles to stretch any player's experience.
There are no difficulty levels as such, but players should find a level of play to suit them - bosses are much harder to beat than other players.

Don't waste your money!
The graphics and user interface on this game are rudimentary to say the least. It has the look and feel of some of the lesser PC game offerings of the 1980s (yes I did say 1980s!).

Sorry but it annoyed me so much I couldn't bear to look at any games besides backgammon. At first glance the computer is a weak player of this game. There's also no doubling cube - this is a basic feature of backgammon.
