This DS game offers numerous fun games for you to play. You will compete against the computer and via the wireless network you can compete against your friends. My family gets lots of laughs every time we get together to play this game. It's never boring and it's always challenging. Definitely worth the money. Makes a great gift, but make sure you save one for yourself.

Lots of fun for the DS

Clubhouse Games is a collection of Mini-games on one card. It has card games, sports games, board games, etc...

The games can be played in single player mode, with other DS gamers near you in single card download play, or many can be played over your wi-fi internet connection. The third option is the one I find the most interesting, and probably use the most. Playing someone on the other side of the world at darts is pretty fun! And, due to the time difference, there is always an opponent available.

I think this game is a "staple" for the DS user, the familiar games play well and this title offers alot in the way of connectivity and challenge.

Best game for DS.

This is the best game for the DS. It's all about replay value. When all those other games run out of fun, club house will give you what you need.

My only complaint is when the CPU is set on hard, it isn't hard, they still make ridiculously bad choices often.

Never a dull moment

I never wanted to get a DS until my BF brought his over and we started playing clubhouse games. I was hooked from the start, and I now have my own. It's a very addictive game (I am a fan of bowling and blackjack) that never gets dull. There's always something new to unlock and I love how challenging the games are. It's even better when you play against someone.

If you are new to the DS, Clubhouse games is a good game to start with. Prepare to become addicted!

Great collection of games for a not so bad price.

This is a really wonderful collection and one of the few games out there actually worth the money. I'm personally a fan of Koi-Koi now... but that's just me, everyone is bound to like something different. It's great for kids and adults. There are little things that made me drop a star... but for the most part I do think it's a worthy investment.

Big Fun in a Small Package

Excellent game. Lots of choices and an easy way to play card games on the go.

Great variety, but . . .

It's great to have a big collection of mostly traditional games with all the convenience of the DS. There's sure to be something here for everybody.

On the downside, there are sure to be some games you'll rarely, if ever, bother with. First off, some of them are kids' games and won't be much fun if you're older than six or so. At the other extreme, some are brain-taxing games (e.g., checkers, chess, shogi), and many people will pass those by. Those who don't pass them by will also likely be disappointed, as the AI is much too weak for even a good novice player.

If you're planning to play these games with other people, in the same room or online, it may be a great buy. It'll be fairly easy to find something everybody considers fun; and the game play will be just like any board or card game, only quicker and neater.

But if you're a single-player gamer like me, Clubhouse Games may not be the best choice. There are some pleasant diversions in the mix -- games that are good for passing a bit of time -- but the challenge is lacking in some games, and others just don't feel right without other human players.

I ended up buying Chessmaster, since the Clubhouse Games version of chess is pitifully weak and a little slow and awkward. I also bought Solitaire Overload, for a greater variety of card games for one. Now that I have those, I rarely come back to Clubhouse Games.

I'd like to enjoy a game of backgammon now and then, but the Clubhouse Games version does not have a doubling-cube feature, which limits the strategic challenge of that game.

I also like checkers (draughts), but besides the weak AI, the Clubhouse Games version of checkers is faulty: it allows (actually forces) a man to jump out of the king row upon being kinged. That's contrary to the standard rules of checkers.

So, the variety is there, but quantity doesn't make up for lack of quality. In my view, this is just a promising collection of what turn out to be mostly so-so games.

Just what I needed

I work for a security company, and I often find myself in the middle of nowhere with nothing to look at and nobody to talk to. This makes falling asleep a serious risk, as in a risk to my employment and potentially a risk to the people and property I'm protecting. How do I avoid this problem? Playing games like this.

Clubhouse Games has over card games, board games, puzzle games, bowling , billiards, darts, and my personal favorite, shake the bottle, which I'm going to play against my niece the next time I see her. I can and have played this game for hours on end. You can change the look of each game, the rules of each game, and how many players you play against in each game. As you play, you unlock new surprises.

It was worth every penny to buy this game.

Welcome to hours of fun

Club House games is a great little DS game. In the one game there are plenty of games to keep you occupied and playing for hours. Play locally with one game card or go online and play with friends or strangers. Really the single player experience here will work whether you're commuting on the bus or just lying on your couch at home bored. There are 42 games in this purchase, you can't go wrong and you'll be playing it over and over with plenty of replay value. Great for those nights that you can't sleep!
