 Battleship Folio
Great game, great fun. I especially like the zip up aspect of it. It keeps it nice and neat & hard to lose pieces.

LOVE the travel games
We have these at home for family game night. I love the travel editions of the games because they all zip up into a nice size to store. No boxes to get stepped on and ruined, and a place for all of the pieces. You can take them with you when you are on the road, or play them at the kitchen table. I think they are much more convenient than the full size games. Plus they stay more organized, and I LOVE organization!

 One major flaw... ( bdunkle )
This is okay, though as another reviewer said, too big to be very portable. The pegs work fine for us, no trouble so far.
The big negative, for me, is the fact that it's all one piece. If the two players' boards snapped apart, you could use it in a car. As it is, you have to sit facing each other, and it's just small enough that you need to do it on the floor, or on a very small table.
Oh well - I got it because it was on sale, and we didn't have a regular battleship set. If my kids like it enough, I'll get them a better version - one with separate boards for each player (good in general, not only in the car).
Fun - battleship is a fun game; the awkwardness of this set takes away little.
Educational - there is some learning of how to..."spread your fire". One son took all of his shots in a single line at first, for example...not the most efficient.
Durable - don't know yet.
Overall - size and setup kill it - too big for a portable, too small for a "regular".

Too Big to be travel size
Travel size should mean smaller to fit into travel bags. These folio games are huge! They are only a little smaller than the game in the original box - which for me, defeated the purpose. Save your money on this one - they take up a TON of room!

 3 Stars with work! ( silver@racsa.co.cr )
First thing you need to do is sand down the pegs that hold the ships to the board. Nearly all! My son had cracked his board twice before I saw what was happening. The pegs that mark shots taken are fine. He likes it.
