This is a great game of strategy, yet not difficult. It can easily be played with two people; I'd say one round lasts maybe 15 minutes. You make a trail to hop over each other and the first one to get all his marbles in the opposing corner of the star wins. They used to sell this game in a tin, but now, I discovered alot of the chinese checkers games are either made with plastic pegs or smaller marbles that are on slightly smaller boards, making it annoying to play, because it's hard to maneuver the marbles around - no room for the fingers to grasp the marble without knocking them out of the holes. This particular set that I am reviewing is the standard size, with standard sized glass marbles (hooray!) so I'm pleased. It's also made in the USA (hooray!) of maple or cherry wood.

I am so glad that I bought this nice game. My children, ages 6, 8 and 10, enjoy playing and are slowly catching on to the strategy involved. I love that the directions are actually carved into the back of the wooden game board - we'll never lose them! The marbles come with a pouch for safe keeping, but I have to keep an eye on where that pouch ends up. This is made in Vermont, and I always like buying things made here in the good ol' US of A.

Chinese Checkers (made in the USA)was introduced to my grandchildren on a rainy day that needed a little something extra. The three year old used counting , understanding getting from one place to another and strategy. The almost seven year old was all about strategy. We had a fun filled afternoon and the children look forward to playing each time they visit.
