Review on ๐ŸŽฒ MEIOCION Double Dominoes Spinner Wooden: Enhance Your Game with Style by Shawn Torres

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Everything is fine with dominoes, but the box disappoints.

This is a decent dice set in a nicely decorated box. Compared to other ankle sets I have them a bit smaller but they have some metal in them. an edge in the middle of each tile. Not sure what it's for, but none of my other kits have it. So lover? The main disadvantage of this set is the box. The blurb says it's "wood" but if it is, it's sort of a very light variant with a dark/wood effect decor. Other sets came to me in sturdy glass jars or pine boxes with sliding lids, which are cheaper but more durable. The hinges don't look particularly strong and there is no latch. If you plan to take this set on a trip, you will need to tie it or otherwise prevent it from falling apart. I'm assuming it's a black plastic disc with a domino-sized hole and clips around the edges. I also assume that this serves as a starting point for building tiles. The rules don't mention it at all. When we talk about the rules, they are written on a one-sided piece of paper and a somewhat rough translation into English. The version I received is missing a line about how the game continues if the person cannot place a tile. Those who have played dominoes won't need these instructions at all, but they can be confusing for new players. I think the price might be a bit high for what you get. The box isn't very pretty and I'm not sure if it's suitable for kids or travel. The dominoes themselves appear to be good, but overall they are not of the quality I would like if given as gifts.
