Can someone confirm the size of the game board? Is it around 10"? This latest version has a small retail box. So I want to confirm the game board size

I bought the game for my grandchildren who live in NC...I live in Ohio, so I do not have the game in front of me. But I would say the board is 12" x 12."

How big do they ave to be? My wife and I have no issue with the size of the chips. They seem perfect to us. We had a board back in college, and if memory serves me right, the chips were the same size. A non issue as far as I'm concerned. Hope that helps.

This is the best answer The box of the actual game is 11 x 8 inches. It came in a box 17 x 16 inches. Depth of about 2 inches for both.Keith C. answered on October 3, 2014

I ordered the 18" leatherette set. The chips that came with it were fine, not small. I did find other chips that I liked better in shape and color that matched the board. They are the same size as the ones that came with the game. Chips do come in different sizes according to the size of the board.

The box is labeled 8+, but I've played it with 5 year olds who have requested to play it again.Cheers,Dominic CrapuchettesDesigner of Wits & Wagers and Say Anything

Hello, The pictures in MY listing are the exact game I'm offering. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00000IWD0/ref=dp_olp_0?ie=UTF8&condition;=all&sr;=1-1&qid;=1430055020. The game is like new but for some minor box wear as described but I don't know the vintage.

The board is 11 1/8" in diameter. The wooden pieces are about 1" high. We would have preferred the board and pieces were a little bigger. But it is nice wood and good quality so far.

The board is a little bigger than the traditional cardboard board. The tiles are the exact same size. The board has slots so the tiles do not move around like in the old version. It's really great!

The balls are definitely smaller than standard and as I remember the cues were shorter. Sorry this was a gift for my grandson so the table is not here in my home where I can measure. However, we gave it to him last Xmas, almost a year ago, and his whole family, adults included, still enjoy playing on it. Good quality.

Yea its definitely not a regular size board. Actually its a lot smaller.....quality on it is pretty terrible as well. I definitely should have done more research before I purchased that board.

We bought our base game at Christmas, then bought the seafarers a couple months later. It fits. I think the game boards made five years ago are the same as the ones made currently.

The board (excluding the frame) is 9" x 7.5". The actual playing area is 7.5" x 7.5", because there's an inch on the left for the letter distribution, etc., and half an inch on the right that's blank (so the two halves of the actual playing area are equal size). The tiles are 7/16" square. They fit into a plastic grid. Each square in the grid is .5", so there's a tiny space between the tiles when they're placed on the board. It's much smaller than a standard set, but you get used to it pretty quickly. It's a little difficult to clear the board at the end of a game, but that's about the only problem I can think of, and that's not much of a problem. The board (excluding the frame) is 9" x 7.5".

I think the mat is different in each version of the game. The original game has a cardboard mat that folds up. It is sturdy and nice to play on but, in my expaerience, folding boards fall apart with even moderate use. The board on the deluxe game is a little bit larger than the basic game board, made of vinyl and rolls up to fit back in the box. I believe that the jumbo board is also mafe of vinyl and is much larger. Other reviews that I read mentioned that it would not fit in the box and had to be stored seperately.This is a woderful game to play for as few as two people or in teams. Whenever we have a family gathering eeverbody wants to play. I think the mat is different in each version of the game. The original game has a cardboard mat that folds up.

Queen E, well I gave it to my son for Christmas so I don"t have it anymore. Isn't there a product description, including dimensions? It's big, certainly the board itself is at least 12" x 12" but there is a considerable boarder around it. It's VERY heavy. The artwork is beautiful. I was blown away and so was my son. Hope this helps. Jane

Yes the base game comes with the board. Everything you need is in the box ready to go.

I still have the pack 'n play box and it measures 32"x13"x11", but it came inside another box for shipping and I remember that shipping box being much bigger than the actual pack 'n play box. Well worth it!

Yes, in regards to the question of the size of each square in the chess board I purchased: Each square is 1 1/2". I am satisfied with the chess board and it was a good buy. It is sturdy, looks good and served it's purpose. I hope this gets to the person who was inquiring in time.
