More Fun Than I Remembered

I haven't played all of the games included in the box set yet, but the games that I have played are even more fun than I remembered. There are 10 computer characters that you can choose to play against. I find most of them a little annoying, but you have full control over how much they can speak. I have already gotten many hours of enjoyment out of this box set and still have many games to try.

Maximum Pool does not work properly.

The Maximum Pool game does not work if you have any game controllers. It locks up when you start it and you will have to use Task Manager to shut it down. This is a known bug in the program, and there is no patch available for this version. The patches for other versions will not work for "Puzzle and Board Games", I've tried! A quick search will give a lot of information on this problem. If you do not mind turning off your computer, unplugging your joystick and game controllers every time you want to play pool, then rebooting, the pool game WILL work. You have to shut down your computer to reinstall any game controllers needed for other games. I'm not going to put all this stress on my new computer and USB ports just to play a game.

I still recommend this game to all young children and pre-teens who wish to hone their skills at chess, backgammon or other games such as The Incredible Machine and crossword puzzles.

Great games!

I like the selection of games in this set. This was a replacement of a board game CD I had a while back. I like this one better.

title?

I loaned out my other copy and didn't get it back and searched about ten stores trying to look to buy another copy and no one was carrying it. Most are carrying action or poker. I knew I would find it on your web site. It is a great game and I get many hours of pleasure out of it.

I got this from the library, and it's awesome! You install it, and then you don't need to put the disc in to play it. The games are awesome; over 40 of them. You can create your own character that looks just like you, and you can play with other people too. When you play with the computer, you can earn money to spend at the store on the disc. It's so awesome. You can also play pool on it, which is one of my favorite games. I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested.
