Pros and cons

What we like

  • All 42 pawns store inside the case
  • Trays fold back onto the grid after play
  • Same rules as the original: line up four and block
  • Easy for kids aged 6 and up

What may bother

  • Two players only
  • Small pawns can scatter if the case is left open
  • Little depth for older strategy fans

Our verdict

82 / 100

Car trips, flights and campsites are where this earns its place, when a full board game will not fit. Kids from 6 and adults can play within a minute. Skip it for groups bigger than two, or for a child who owns the full-size one.

Best forKids aged 6 and up, and anyone who wants a quick head-to-head game for car rides, flights or camping.
Avoid ifSkip it if you need a game for more than two players or the child already has the full-size version.

How we score

The CTG score out of 100 is the weighted average of five criteria rated for every product: proven reliability (36%), perceived value (18%), bond and memory (18%), originality (14%) and novelty (14%). Each criterion has its own published scale, identical for every product: it rates generously, because every product in our selection is already good. The score does not depend on the guide. 60 to 69: average gift. 70 to 77: good pick. 78 to 85: safe bet. 86 to 89: favorite. 90 and above: the perfect gift, a label reserved for excellent products that customers like, one winner per occasion. In a guide, the score for the recipient combines this score with the place in the ranking. The budget is an indicative range: the exact price is shown by the store at checkout.
