2 out of 5 stars Unless You Understand All The Board Games, This Game Is Ridiculous   January 1, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

The following review I am doing here is a game called "Spyglass Board Games" which is a XBox 360 Arcade Games for the XBox 360 Console. It is not Strategy Games!

Spyglass Board Games is a compilation of 4 Board Games combined into one game. It contains Chess, Checkers, Mancala & Reversi. At this moment in time, Spyglass Board Games is available as an Arcade Game for the XBox 360!

There is no alternative rules with all the games supplied, as the rules are exactly the same as if you were playing a real game of Chess, Checkers etc!

Spyglass Board Games contains a Leader-Board score chart, which places your wins and losses worldwide and 12 Achievements, which give you a total score of 200 Points!

Now I thought that Spyglass Board Games was going to be a really good game with hours of enjoyment, but the truth is, I was really looking forward to getting all 12 Achievements and getting the game over and done with. I didn't find the game at all very satisfying. The reason is because there is no skill to choose the computers competition status. Game play takes too long to finish a round, lag multiplayer games and I certainly don't understand Mancala & Reversi!

My Personal Game Score: 2.5/10: How Unfortunate, Avoidable, Upsetting

My Wish: A vast improvement on the game play, instructions or video instructions on how to play games such as Mancala & Reversi, faster multiplayer action, and a skill setting to choose for the computer!

Final Comments: If you are disappointed easily, I recommend you avoid this game at all costs. But if you can outsmart the computer in all 4 games and understand them very well, then by all means, the challenge is here for you! Just don't get stressed!
