Product Description
What Goes Around Comes Around. Roundabout is similar in play to classics like Backgammon and Parcheesi, but it is also innovative, challenging, and lots of fun for everyone. It is easy to learn and simple to play, yet it is filled with many strategic possibilities for those who enjoy a more challenging match. Played on a round board, players roll dice and move their game pieces in two opposite directions at the same time. The basic object is to be the first to remove all 10 pieces from the board by advancing all of them around the board and back to your home territory, although the game does offer some shortcuts to scoring. Players advance their pieces using Roundabout’s innovative offensive maneuvers and stymie their opponents with the game’s defensive moves. Game comes with Game Board, 40 Game Pieces, 2 Dice, and Rule Sheet for a 2 Player Game and 3 & 4 Player Games. Ages 10 and Up.

Purchased this game for my children (ages 12 & 13) to play with my husband and I. The kids were not at all impressed. We love to play games as a family and we are always looking for new things to add to our list. This game did not make the “must play” list in our house.

I purchased this “new” board game and quickly found out it was a BORED game! There is nothing new here. Same old premise. Do yourself a favor and don’t waste your money

My husband and I love this game! We really enjoy strategy games, and we play chess and backgammon quite often. Now we will be adding Roundabout to our rotation. The more you play it, the better it gets!

I bought this game because it won so many awards and thought it might be a good strategy game to play with my husband and my oldest daughter(who is almost 10). The first time we played, we thought it was okay, but the more we played the game and developed our own strategies, the more fun it became. Now we absolutely LOVE this game. It reminds me a little of Backgammon and Parcheesi, which are two of our favorite games of strategy, but this one is different enough to add to our list of must plays.

My family absolutely loves this game. We’re practically addicted to it! The strategy makes you think, but it’s fast and fun. We love the reversing doubles and going for a ringer makes this way more exciting than backgammon or our other strategy games. It may take you playing two or three games, but then you’ll see how really cool this game is!
