Could have been better.

I enjoy the simplicity of board games from time to time. The ds versions hold true to the originals. I give it four stars for fun since I've already played these games growing up and now I'm happy I can play them on the go.

It should be noted the games' graphics are generally mediocre overall, but pretty poor in Sorry -- the cards are poorly rendered/barely legible (is this just a gba port??) Also, it was disappointing to find you need a second copy of the game for local multiplayer only/no download/hot-seat available. Somewhere I missed reading that in the description, there for it gets 3 stars overall. However for $20 it may not be a bad deal to get two..

Wished multiplayer was better.

I like the variety of the games in this pack, several choices for only $20. I read a few other reviews before I purchased this and figured their bad reviews of multiplayer options was something I would be able to deal with. I decided: you really need to buy two games in order to play these games against another player. Each game has a multiplayer option, but you can not use them without multiple game packs. Make sure anyone else that has a DS that you might want to play gets a game pack too.

Great combination of games

I purchased this game for my 8-year-old grandson. He has played all four games in the traditional versions, and loves the DS games. The only problem that both he and I have is with the Connect Four game. The black pieces are hard to see because the background is also dark. And, at the end of your turn, the stand rotates to reveal the opponent's view, which we find confusing.

Not bad

Sometimes I get tired of action games for my DS so this was a nice change. Not too challenging for the brain, though. Overall it's fun.

Great old board games!!!

Cool game, but you need two game cartridges if you want to play against someone else.

4 Games in One!!!

These games are very close to the original board games. I really enjoy playing them when I am somewhere that I have to wait, I just pull it out of my purse and play. It is nice to have a choice of games in just one cartridge.

Bought this for my son who is seven years old. He loves it. Especially, the Battleship. My husband and him are constantly battling over the Nintendo and this is just one of their favorite games. It does bring back a lot of good memories for me playing these game with my family and friends.

Bringing back the oldies

I gave this gave to my son for Christmas. These are all of the games that my family played as a kid... HE LOVES IT! It is fun to have them back in the family again. He likes Battleship the most, but I prefer Sorry. My 8 year old steals the game and plays Connect Four all of the time. Good Game. Four games for one low price.

Buy 2!

My husband and I each have a Nintendo DS. We bought 2 games so we could play against each other. Our favorite game is Battleship, but we have fun playing all of the games.
