Review on ๐Ÿ€ Travel Hoops Basketball Dice Set by Zack Block

Revainrating 5 out of 5

covers an amazing variety of football nuances

I stumbled across this while looking for travel games for two or more people. If you just start looking at the instructions, you'll go insane. Just start spinning and looking for each reel. We were struggling to understand the scorecard, so we threw it away and just wrote down the results of the game. Once you **get the hang of the logic**, just start using your knowledge of soccer to figure out what the dice mean. Get fired, roll the yellow die to see how many yards you've lost and take the Run Play die because that's a down loss - OH. The only complaint we have is that with the Possession Cube, it would help if the O and D were a little less similar, especially at the campground picnic table. . They also simplified the math. My husband made fun of me because I "1. and 10th on the 87-yard line". It was really worth understanding because we played great. I think what impresses me the most is how much real football they made with the dice. When I rolled the safety at the 50 yard line, it might not have been very realistic, but they actually thought you were rolling the dice from a 20 and not from the end zone, like a free kick. Also in real football it would be insanely useful to know in advance what the footage will be on all the downs, but who cares, this is a really fun game and the harder it is the more it will be. You don't know anything about football, although you will get lost. On the other hand, if you want to teach someone the basic rules of soccer, this would be a great way to do it. I have to apologize to my niece as we were so looking forward to ordering one for my nephew who should be there tomorrow. That's all I can say, Katherine Bishop.

Pros
