4.0 out of 5 stars Great games - better not to get the attache version, September 6, 2008

Both the code pegs and the key pegs are really small and difficult to grasp. This may be the case with the "full-sized" version as well; it has been 30 years since I played that one, so I can't say. The size of the pegs aside, the game case itself is built flimsily. The pegs do not stay in place because the compartment doors do not stay closed, so we're always fishing the little tiny pegs out of the inaccessible corners of the canvas case. And when we unzip the case, the pegs go flying around. Not practical when traveling. I will say that I had (excessively?) high expectations for the game, because we love, love, love our attache Yahtzee!!
As for the game of Mastermind, it is awesome. My six-year-old loves to play. Hidden analytical skills come to light, Scooby Doo is forgotten for a while, we both have fun together.
Recommended buy, probably better in another design.

I admit that I prefer the convenience of the attache versions of games, because it keeps all the little parts organized and makes cleanup so much easier. Yes, it is harder to pick up the pegs out of the side compartments, and sometimes they slip under the tray during play, but it is really a minor annoyance. The side compartments close securely on my unit and I have encountered no displacement when the game is closed up. I don't think that the pegs are any smaller than the traditional mastermind version, at least from what I remember. They fit securely in the game holes.

I bought this game for my 9 years old kid and he loves it. It's fun and challenging at the same time and it's perfect long road trips.
