I chose this one because it had both checkers/chess and backgammon. There are others that look better made, but they're more expensive and most only had one (chess/checkers) or the other (backgammon). I wouldn't use this as an every-day game set - the stitching is not the best - but I got it specifically for travel, and for that, it's perfect: 3 games, all the parts, a little space for extra dice or game pieces, all in a light roll-up package. Oh, it will be adults using this set. I'm not sure how long it would last being used by kids.
