NOT WHAT IS IN THE PHOTO!

As with the bushings I reviewed, I bought them for an event I was hosting and I am not happy with the purchase. First, they don't look like the picture at all. Instead of solid colored sticks, they have colored stripes. a? I hope I can figure out how to get it working because it's too late to go shopping. In the picture you can see a comparison between these new clubs and my old clubs and how they differ from what is shown in their picture.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Eternal game for all ages.

I played this game as a kid and decided to introduce it to my grandkids who usually play video games on their phones. At first they were confused by this seemingly simple game. But they soon became addicted to the game and loved the challenge. They were thrilled when I gave them the set to take home. Then I bought another set to keep at home. I love this game because I have fond memories of my childhood and the great time I had playing stick with my siblings 70 years ago. There is no more time.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Safety

Joysticks are great for the average game and can be time consuming.

If you're used to playing with plastic sticks, the wooden version of Toysmith requires some adjustments. The 41-piece Toysmith set is nothing more than painted wooden dowels that are about twice the width of plastic sticks. The wooden sticks look identical at first glance, but as soon as they are thrown into the play pile, you notice that they wobble and sit a little awkwardly on top of each other. As a side note, the color of the black wand is a bit difficult to distinguish from the dark blue,

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Easily repairable

poorly done in handheld games

These are not the pickups I remember. They're about twice as thick as the plastic ones I remember and longer. The wood is very rough (watch out for splinters!) and many of the rods are bent. If you look closely at the pictures, you can see that fragments are sticking out of one of the red ones, one of the yellow ones is bent, and the yellow one in the second photo is missing half a page. In addition, the tips are very blunt and have no taper. As far as I remember you used the tips to separateโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Repair

As a parent... suitable for handheld games

When my 9 year old daughter asked about this game I thought ok the rules are simple enough she can play with her 5 year old younger brother. It's pretty, doesn't require a screen or batteries GREAT! "Yes, I would love to buy that for you," I said happily and bought it. It came the next day and they were so excited to play. We went through the rules, they sat down at the dining table and I went into the Kitchen. 0.00000009 seconds later the screeching match would restart whenever the stick wasโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Hard to say

What I remember most about portable games

My family wasn't poor, but we had some money. Most of our toys and games were pretty basic, but growing up I realized that they were just as much a learning experience as the toys. The pickups I played with were exactly the same. Some were slightly deformed. They were made of wood. I bought a set for my grandkids because my sons gave them all these damn phones as gifts, even the littlest ones have something like a smartphone and keep hunching their necks at the sight of the screens. They don'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Useless features
