We love the feel of this game that comes with a handsome wooden board and 49 marbles. The goal here is to use your wood stomper to push through your opponents marbles until their colored marbles are trapped on the board with no similar colors adjacent. Our testers found that this is the type of game that you get the hang of (and enjoy) the more you play. The game also comes with a pouch for all the marbles (a good thing!). The player with the most number of marbles at the end of the game is the winner. 8 and up.
