I discovered this game on vacation this summer with an aunt. We played with her two little girls of 14 years. I enjoyed and my 8 year old girl who won the part of large dams 2 teenagers !! It takes 14 pins out. The next step is to make combinations of the same color either on, or sets of same figure in different colors. And where it gets interesting is that you use at will all the pieces already placed to make new combinations and get rid of all his checkers. The only condition is that the pieces remain on the table by 3 series. So for Christmas, I gave my niece 10 years and has several parts including between adults! Well, there is no reason that not amused with us as major ;-))
