My son has been asking for the original game having played it at friends houses and wants to get rid of this version. There's many flaws here compared to the original game...1 There's only 20 pieces per side but the 2 player board is the same size, leading to a lot of awkward open space2 The pieces are very hard to see from any angle but straight behind them, meaning you have to elevate the board to play the game3 The cards fall out of the slots in the pieces- we have lost a few and are frequently having to reassemble piecesAs I'm now being forced to go back and buy the original game, I figured I'd post this review as a warning to others.
