This game is just awesome. The curved domino pieces add a fun twist to the game, allowing to block your opponent from playing his piece if it does not go the right direction.
We played the game non-stop with the family on July 4th, could not stop playing, it is addictive. Our five year old nephew was able to join the group and even win a few rounds! Great game for the entire family, highly recommended.

The instructions include several interesting variations of play. My family plays with alternative rules that require adding the ends and getting points for multiples of five. In standard dominoes we like trying to block others from playing. In Bendominoes blocking is more dynamic. You can start with four places to play, but since the dominoes are bent it is possible to block an entire end or just one direction of that end depending on where the other pieces are played. This may limit your opponents ability to play, but you have to be careful not to block yourself and make sure to count the "dead ends". Another of the standard rules is easier for children to play since the points are not added and the goal is to go out first. Overall this is a great game and in many ways better than classic dominoes and is a good value. The pieces are well crafted and very durable. After playing we decided to buy a set for my parents and are looking forward to playing a four player game over the holidays.

I would give this a 4.5 stars. It is fun and entertaining, but has not great educational value. We love the "twist" that the bendominoes have, it makes it more interesting that regular dominoes. The only downside to the game is the number of pieces (28), that allows for just 2 to 4 players.
