4 Track Cribbage

This is a simple well made cabbage board. Solid and sturdy and you only have to go around the board one time. It was so nice we bought 2. We even turned our friends onto this board and they bought one too! I did put felt chair pads on the bottom so it wouldn't scratch the table.

I bought this board to learn to play cribbage with my girlfriend and some friends from school. When I received it, it was wrapped in plastic and was enclosed with a page of instructions. The instructions are useless, as they end mid-sentence before they even get to scoring. But, hey, instructions are easily supplemented through the internet. Just be aware. 24 pins are included in a compartment in the back of the board (6 of each color).The board itself is satisfying on a number of levels, both in aesthetic and functionality. The holes are drilled well, the pegs fit, and the board is marked very clearly with dark ink. I don't use most of the holes in regular play, but there are sufficient areas for scoring multiple and continuous games. It is constructed of a hardwood, maybe white oak, and the wood has no sharp edges or splinters. There are also short rubber feet on the bottom of the board that make it easy to set on wooden furniture.Amazon asks reviewers to rate toys and games on their educational value. I suppose that cribbage teaches basic arithmetic, but the only thing I teach is what it feels like to be skunked!

This is a great cribbage board, especially if you're a newer player and need to learn how to play without being paired up with anyone. It's solid, level and roomy.My only issue is that the paint on part of my board is starting to come up, a month since I purchased it. My husband and I play several times a week, but this shouldn't be happening. It looks as if it wasn't sanded properly in one spot, varnish was applied regardless and now the wood imperfection is causing the paint to come up.Otherwise, a great board and highly recommended.

I was pleasantly surprised that a board like this could be had for so little money. The four tracks mean you can play essentially any version of cribbage: two-handed, three-handed, four-handed, and four-handed with partners.

I purchased this gift for my husband who loves to play cribbage. The board is a very nice quality and comes with instructions on how to play 4-track cribbage. Before only two people could play cribbage at a time. Now our whole family can play. It's a great new game for our family game night.
