Wow... what can I say. I sent it back. The wood on the game in the photo appears smooth, and slightly darker with a sheen like a polished walnut... when I received it, I was disappointed to find a rough, pale colored set. The cribbage board was assembled poorly - the seam where the hinges are did not match up and was uneven, the dividers inside the box are not sturdy... they completely come out and/or shift around inside the box. The other thing that disappointed me was that I paid $50 for the set. This is a starter set for my son, and I know that really nice sets are hundreds of dollars, but for $50 I expected to at least get something decent. The next day, after I purchased the set, the price went down to $34... and was still from the same seller. I love Amazon - I have bought many things from Amazon, but I was not happy with this Item at all. The photograph is a very poor representation of the product and there aren't enough reviews to judge otherwise. Please don't make the ame mistake I did, and buy this set!

The game boards, cabinet, chessmen, backgammon chips, and cribbage board are all made of wood. The chessboard reverses to serve as the backgammon board. You get a 12x12 inch game board with 1 1/8" chess squares. The king height is a little over 2.5 inches and all the chessmen are carved and look pretty decent. In the game set you also get a deck of playing cards, 28 domino tiles, 4 poker dice, 4 regular dice, and 2 dice that I am not sure what game they are for. 2 plastic cups dice cups and a small cribbage board completes the set. the domino tiles are 1.25" tall so smaller than the standard 2" tournament tiles, but you can't expect tournament size tiles in a multi-game set like this. The game set overall wood construction looks good and durable and cleanly made. Under the game board there is storage for all game pieces and other accessories. The storage area is divided into 6 rectangular compartments with wood dividers to keep things separate. Overall a good starter game set for the price.

This is getting sent back. It's cheap, rough, poorly made, glue has seeped out from the joint onto the board, part of the board was broken, and there are paint splatters all over the backgammon side. The chess pieces are small and rough, the other playing pieces are flimsy, plastic, and VERY small. Really? This is a rip off, and is ridiculously over-priced. This was my first purchase from amazon.com, and if this is the kind of vendor on here, then I doubt I'll be making any more purchases from amazon or this vendor anytime soon. I'll be sticking with companies that don't insult me by taking my hard-earned money and giving me crap in return.
