Review: Great quality brand, long lasting gift that can be passed onto other family members - My kids love this game. Lovely, good quality product, finished well with no rough parts. Comes in a nice cardboard box. Great for a gift if not sure what to buy someone's kids. Played a lot at home and great for learning number bonds to 12 quickly. My kids 14, 11 and 5 all play together which is saying something given the age gaps. It's almost impossible to find things these days that do not involve a screen and that can keep siblings of varying ages entertained, but this worked. I also bought the wooden snakes and ladders, ludo double sided board after a cardboard folding one got damaged.
