Creative Crafthouse Penny Drop Game Premium Version - The Original

A fun little game. Mostly chance with a wee bit of strategy thrown in.This popped up on my Amazon home screen. I buy a new game every year for the family for Christmas. I was curious. I checked out the game, then played it with pennies and a paper board that I drew. It was fun, so I decided to purchase the game for this year's game gift.The box is very well made, and quite beautiful. I was not sure what to expect--but this exceeded any expectations that I may have formed. I am quite happy with my purchase. In fact, I think I will be buying more to give to family as gifts.And it is small enough to take with you. We like to go to a local Italian deli on Fridays to hang out with friends and play games. This one is going in the bag.Let's be honest. The game is simple and mostly chance. PERFECT for a game night with friends. You can play and maintain a conversation. Throw in a little betting and some smack talk, and you will have a boisterous time. And the kids love it.Well worth the money.

This game box is beautifully detailed and well made. I was happy the moment I opened the Amazon box and saw it in person. It is truly a game for all ages and I was amazed at how quickly the children picked up on the passing strategy. Additionally, we were able to play and engage with some friends visiting from overseas and the language barrier evaporated after they learned to play. I highly recommend this game.Last but not least Deb in customer service is a gem!

Great small game for camping! The top slides on in a groove (vs being placed on top) which is great for travel. Easy game for adults and children to play together.

My boyfriend and I love this game. Super easy to learn and I have taught many friends. Quick and cute game and easy for on-the-go & travel

This game has swiftly become the favorite of everyone with whom I’ve played. Takes less than a minute to learn, is appropriate and entertaining for 4-year-olds to ages 100+, and may be played with any number (2+) of people.Amazingly, it is not boring to watch others taking their turn, no matter how long their turn lasts — in fact, watching others play is really fun because it’s a game of chance and you learn a lot about other players’ personalities as they decide when to keep rolling the dice and when to stop taking chances and pass the dice on to the next player. And, of course, you are revealing that about yourself on your turns too.Now, a word about the craftsmanship: I bought the “deluxe” version of Penny Drop with the tightly secured sliding lid. It is carefully crafted and a thing of beauty. There are three different colors of wood that complement each other and all are well finished off and smooth. I have it on display, it is so pretty. And the 3-D wooden Lincoln head penny adhered to the top — what a cute touch! It did take me a bit to figure out how to open this game; the lid slides in one direction only and is snuggly fitting. I bought two rolls of pennies at my bank (.50 cents per roll of 50 pennies :) and keep them stored inside the game. The lid is so tight I never have to worry about the pennies falling out. And the dice (die?) — it’s one, it’s wooden, and it’s big; you aren’t going to lose it and it’s good for all sized hands. Every facet of this game is 5 star. I highly, highly recommend it.

A really fun game, and one that you don't have to really concentrate on.

My brother really liked this game. Nice quality wood. Not cardboard like others.

This penny drop game is made better than some of the other brands.
