Toys and Games Reviews of Travel Sequence
Customer Review: Not quite the full-size, but good.
Summary: 4 Stars
Players- 2 (and only 2)
Age range I'd reccomend: 8+ (small parts)
The travel-size Sequence box is a bit limited- it has one deck to play instead of two. But what it might lack in that respect might be made up for in its compact form, depending on what you're looking for. It is worth noting that the box includes small plastic pieces for markers that could be dangerous to small children. The pieces seem to be a very manageable size for the rest of us- and this is coming from a 6'2" guy with stubby fingers.
I bought this game with my girlfriend during a brief power outage, and it it was a fantastic way to spend the time. The compact size is perfect when you don't want to limit yourself to a full table, and it is great for travel. All of the components easily fit into one plastic box that snaps together with two tabs, instantly and securely locking everything together.
The game itself takes only moments to learn- deal 7 cards to each player, and take turns discarding cards (and placing a marker on the appropriate spot on the board) to work toward sequences- composed of 4 markers in a row. To mix it up, the Jacks are "wild" in the game. Two-eyed Jacks allow you to place your marker anywhere. One-eyed Jacks allow you to remove one of your opponent's pegs from the game. Even if you get tired of Sequence, the deck of cards included is full (including Jokers) so you can play whatever card games you might feel like enjoying.
Some luck is involved in the game- probably more than you'd want to have involved in a single play. In the travel version, players can only really interfere with each other by drawing a card the other side was hoping for or by drawing the Jacks (something the original minimized by having two decks). It can sometimes tilt one game toward one side, but playing a few games generally lets everyone have a chance to get the upper hand.
If you're looking for a game more appropriate for children, the same company that makes Sequence also made Jumbo and Children's versions of the game.
Description of Travel Sequence
Now you can take the popular family game on all your family trips! Compact and easy to pack, Travel Sequence is perfect for plane rides, camping trips, or wherever your travels may take you. It's still the same exciting game of strategy and luck that all ages enjoy. The familiar Sequence board is contained within the lid of the plastic carrying case. Pegs replace chips as the way to mark the cards on the game board so they'll stay in place on a bumpy ride. The miniature deck of cards measures 2 ½ x 1 ¾. Easy enough for children and still challenging for adults, Sequence has been a family favorite for generations. Travel Sequence comes with a Sequence game board, Sequence playing cards, Pegs, Game Instructions, and packaged in a convenient plastic travel case. For 2 or More Players, Ages 7 and Up.Travel Games Toys
