5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Game Made Mobile, January 3, 2007

I purchased my first Cathedral game set twenty-five years ago in a Fairbanks, Alaska bookstore. The simplicity of rules combined with nuances of strategy made it the favorite of my family. All ages could play one another, and as sports commentators so often say, "On any Sunday, any player could beat any other player." So I was delighted to find a travel-size set to go on vacations without risking raising the wrath of the trunk space regulator. In twenty-five years no one has tired of the game. And I love the fact that it doesn't require any batteries!

Great game to play with adults or kids. Love the magnetic board and travel size. However, it can be a pain to try to fit all the pieces inside to close the board.

My husband and I first played this game at a bed & breakfast, and we were hooked. It's quick, easy to learn, and a great way to spend some time together. It's only a two-person game, so it is a good one to sit down with that one child who might need some special attention without getting into a 3 hour Monopoly commitment.

The pieces are lovely & I like the travel case. My one complaint is that we have had two of the magnets come off the pieces. They have been easy to reglue, but I don't think the quality was quite what it should be.
