Color JCD Piecepack Review

JCD Piecepack

Upon initial glance, was surprised at how small the package was — from the shipping container, it appeared to be no larger than a paperback book. The tiles and coins seem much smaller than their internet picture representations I’ve perused, but given the physical dimensions, it seems my perception was off.

First glance — I like the wooden tiles, even if the color seems a tad askew (which I reckon is to be expected for wooden tiles). The coins seem OK but the engravings on the wooden dice (specifically on the “null” die face) are offset onto the edge. And the dice seem overly large and clunky, and bereft of color, unlike the other game pieces. Though the pawns too, feel incongruous in relation to the rest of the set.

The wooden box is a nice touch, but the wood is paper thin.
