My teenagers are always trying to get their friends into board gaming and this feels like a fun game for them to play, with donuts to snack on, of course. 😊

[@jameskirk4692]

Thanks for teaching and talking about the game.

[@25thCenturyGames]

Thank you so much for the kind words, Sam. Much appreciated your time and effort (and enthusiasm) in sharing your thoughts. And yes....Krispy Kreme is the best! The napkin dispenser and the tile rack are in the regular edition too! Only the hats and the mini-expansion are in the deluxe (deluxe is more of "kickstarter version" and we have some available for sale now in our web store). - chad

Understood! This one is great fun! Congratulations!

[@thewoopsik]

Thank you for the review.

Do those card and tile holders fit back in the box without having to take them apart?

[@25thCenturyGames]

Yes the constructs fit back into the box without needing to take them apart. That was important when we made the box size what it is.

[@SamHealey6]

I can wholeheartedly confirm the above as being true! Even all four bakers hats fit back in the box!!

[@bjjzombie]

You aren't wrong about Krispy Kreme. I once waited out all night in December 2003 for the grand opening of a Krispy Kreme. Got a year of free donuts as I was #17 inline.

[@SamHealey6]

Free donuts for a year (from Krispy Kreme) is a great prize!!!…well worth a night’s worth of sleep.

A quad shaped box huh? Is this like a squares are rectangles thing? 😉😄 Thanks for the review, I'm more a custard eclaire kinda guy.

[@SamHealey6]

lol! Yep…a quad shaped box! I got in the habit of calling them quads playing the game because four donuts fit under it…smh. Crullers are my absolute favorite!

Who makes that shirt you’re wearing?

[@SamHealey6]

It’s a company called Grunt Style. They’re headquartered in my hometown of San Antonio, TX.

[@davidnorris8724]

@@SamHealey6because the flag is displayed incorrectly. The field of stars should always be to the observers left🫡

[@SamHealey6]

@@davidnorris8724 To my knowledge (that is to say what my son in the US Army told me), the field of stars should never be retreating (facing the rear). This isn’t argumentative, btw. I think all their shirts have the Grunt Style logo on the left sleeve and the US flag on the right, with the field of stars facing forward (not retreating).

[@SamHealey6]

@@davidnorris8724 I think the difference is between “when it is displayed” (in which case you are correct) and “when it’s part of an article of clothing” (the context within I was speaking).

[@samirjafri191]

On the Boy Scouts of America uniform, the flag is positioned on the right sleeve oriented as suggested by @davidnorris8724 (field of stars to the left of the observer, so towards the back of the sleeve). As a scout leader, that is also how it is to be displayed, for example, on a stage (either horizontally or vertically). I am not an expert on this, but I daresay say that if the BSA has this wrong, it would have been corrected by now.
