The whole family can participate in this color/number matching game. Even our 6 and 7 year old grandsons understand the game and have great fun when our extended family plays.
Although it may seem that there is no challenge. there is strategy involved; try to block others from discarding their tiles before you, so if you can block their forward movement - Do So.
But they are really durable. Received them in plenty of time for Christmas. Man are they heavy. The instructions are very vague and complicated.but even though we might have had to make up our own rules, it was fun. I like that you aren't limited to number of players.
The dominoes in this set are excellent, but the features that make it Mexican Train are very poor. The metal box is fine, but is not a carrying case with a handle like other sets. The centerpiece is just a piece of cardboard, and does not make sound effects like other sets. Also, only 4 trains are included. The directions for the game were written by a person who does not speak English well, and the rules are ambiguous. I am going to buy a different set because this one is a disappointment.
I purchased these for my nine year old son for Christmas this year. They are a great starter set and we have absolutely no complaints. The tiles appear to be well made and the tin was in great shape.
