4.0 out of 5 starsMore Compact but Perfectly Fun and Functional
June 3, 2016
Our kids love to play Connect 4, but many of the checkers/ chips from our last game had wandered off. I chose this one to replace it, as the better price initially attracted me. Overall, it's a good little set, but it is much flimsier than the other brand. The board is smaller, as are the checkers, which wouldn't matter if they'd quit losing pieces, making me want to put together multiple sets to have one functional game (c'mon moms, you feel me!)... The good part of this particular game, it's all one piece, so the bottom is harder to kill and there are no legs to lose. I also like that it releases into the tray, so you don't have checkers rolling off everywhere (maybe that's how they escape?!). Compact for travel is a nice touch, too. For the price, it's a decent value.
