A mini version of Ingenious. Good for two people. A little bulky for a travel edition of a game, but we enjoyed playing it at the pool on our recent Hawaii vacation. Counter pegs are a bit small, making them a little difficult to pick up and easy to drop. But the playing tiles fit well on the board. We would bring it on a driving trip in the future, but not likely on a flying trip.

I bought this becasue I was looking for a good 2 person game to ttake on vacation with us. The reviews of this game seemed great, and I have to agree that its a great game. It take s a few games to figure out your "best" strategy, but that is part of the fun. Since our vacation I've played it with others, and it seems oce people play once they want to keep going. I would suggest the first time you play with a new player that you"help" them find the best way to play their tiles for the first game so they get the idea quickly. Good fun!

We picked this game up easily -- rules and scoring. It's fun -- challenging to figure out where to place your tiles and rewarding when you find just the perfect spot. Good for kids and adults.
