I received this game in the mail a few days ago and I must say that my family and I were thoroughly impressed. The game comes with a see through plastic carrying case with a zipper top. The first time that I assembeled the 2 spinning sets, it took me about 10 minutes to figure it out, but the second time around it took me only 1 minute to fully assemble them both. The rubber bolas are safe for children and heavy enough to be thrown a good distance. The rules were pretty straight forward and keeping score was very simple via the one scoring tape and o-rings that came with the game.
The only things that I feel the game could have used were:
A) 2 sets of scoring tapes incase one wanted to play with 3 people, vice 2 or 4. The scoring tapes have #'s on two ends for even #'d of players scoring.
B) A fourth set of bola colors. There currently are only 3 colors to choose from.
Overall, out of 5 stars, I would give this game 4 1/2 stars. If you like Ladder Golf, then you'll like the Spin-it Game. In fact, the kids will love it since it is safe and cool looking. We had this set up in our front yard and the neighborhood kids flocked around it since they've never seen anything like it before. They had a blast playing it! It sure was a conversation starter!
