Review on ๐Ÿ—๏ธ Jenga A2120EU4 Classic Game: The Ultimate Tower-Building Challenge by Richard Summerall

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Game, 5 stars, 3-pack

Well, as for the game, it's Jenga, blocks of excellent quality, 5 stars. But as other reviews have said the packaging sucks and I give it 3 stars. For an overall rating of 4 stars. The problem occurs when you want to save blocks. You have two trains of thought here. Save time by stacking them neatly when you're done by just throwing them all in the box and then arranging them next time you want to play OR stack them neatly in the box when you're done, so you don't have to adjust them next time you want to play because you can just pull them out of the box, ready to play. Both options mean you only need to fold them neatly once. You can do NOTHING with this package. We tried the first scenario by just throwing them all into a large rectangular box, thinking that this is why it's bigger to fit all the blocks if they aren't stacked properly. NO. They won't fit if you just drop them all. Okay, no problem, we'll just fold them neatly into the cardboard corner guide they give you and glue them in. However, this allows you to place all the blocks in it. Box, there's nothing inside to hold them together, so they all fall apart once you put the box on the shelf anyway, and you'll have to put them back together if you want to play again! So when you put them away you need to fold them neatly and then when you want to play you need to fold them AGAIN before playing. What I mean is that you can solve this problem by either 1. make the box square so the blocks in the box don't fall apart, or 2. make the box big enough to hold all the blocks if they are randomly thrown into it . There may be a third option which is to just grab a large gallon sized ziplock bag, they can all fit in there. However, then you don't have room to store a cardboard sleeve that will serve as a guide during installation. You just can't win. Packaging error.TL;DR The game is good, but the cleaning and customization sucks just because of the packaging. The whining is over.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
