Deck gets a solid 4.5 stars from me! But the packaging was so damaged, I'm surprised the cards were ok.
I've been really excited for the new set to drop and ordered a bunch of things so it was kinda disappointing to find duplicates in my commander deck since you technically can't play with this deck.
Highly Highly recommended!!!!! These chips did have shaven edges, no excess paint, center sticker were not missing and they stack perfectly compared to (MRC and BryBelly Brands). As a Pro Casino dealer and a owner of a mobile Casino, these chips have the best feel then any other chips out there. They were easy to shuffle and they did not fall over when I put them in a full stack!!. I have pics and video to prove it!!
This is my second set so the wife and I can each have our own markers and dice (solving one of the problems listed in my first review below). I will paste my original review here because it still holds true for this little gem of a game. Please note, I ordered the ORANGE dice set this time, but received a BLACK set... no big deal, as the color is just a personal preference and doesn't affect gameplay at all... but still is a mishap in shipping an order... so take that however you like. (Copied from my initial review of Spicy Dice from my first of two ordered sets) If you've ever played Yahtzee, you'll pick this up pretty fast. It also has a quick reference rule set attached to the scorepad, so that's a big help too! I am going to start with the negatives... only two small ones... ONE - It is a bit expensive for 6 dice and 3 little acrylic disks. I collect gaming dice and acrylic dice are CHEAP to manufacture, so $17.50 seems a little steep for this... BUT... this game is fun! TWO - and please read this - This set will accommodate ONE PLAYER ONLY without using paper markers, though they do include a sheet of paper markers for you to play with four players, and you could use pennies, buttons, peppermints or any other thing you have laying around... so it's not a REAL problem, but I do find that either me or my wife has to use those and don't get the shiny acrylic markers... I mean, if they would have added 9 more markers and made it a 4 player set it would have solved problem number 1 and only cost them 10 cents a unit. Now onto the game itself... like I said, it's basically Yahtzee but has 2 nice little twists on it. First, each die has one set of number dots that are red. When you roll a red it's either worth bonus points or you can flip the die to any number you want. This makes for some cool comeback moments while playing. Second, the marker system allows you to basically save unused rolls from turn to turn up to three. Get that straight in the first roll? Take the points and grab 2 markers. Rolled 3 times and you're only one number from that set? Use a marker to roll again and try to get it! This adds an element of strategy when choosing to score that adds another depth level to the game! No longer do you want to save "Chance" (or "sum" in this game) until last.... you might want to use it up on a first roll to take 2 markers for a big move later. It's really a great mechanic that I think makes this game better than Yahtzee. Yes, I said "better than Yahtzee"... if only they would include the other 3 players worth of REAL markers or bring the price point down to somewhere where buying 4 or 5 sets wouldn't mean putting 100 bucks into a dice game. Outside of that, this is a great family game night gem!
I am a sealed product collector and I’m pretty cautious about scams. After reading the comments below I started to worry because when I receive my package the seal was looser than I am use to seeing and my fears started to creep in. I broke my collection morals and opened my product only to see all the items were in all the spots they were suppose to be and I received every item. I am a little sad I opened the product but let me tell you that quickly went away when I seen the cards. There breath taking… let it be known that although scalpers are a real threat the only harm you do when you spread lies to try an tarnish someone name just because you don’t like that they scalp also hurts the ones willing to pay the price… we need true honest feed back as a community or all hope is lost.. the product is good I can’t vouch for every single product this dude sells but this one I recieved was sketchy but turned out to be real.

"Ascended Masters are great spiritual teachers and helpers, most of whom lived as humans upon the earth. They're powerful guides who can help you understand your life's purpose, muster the courage to make significant changes, and develop your psychic and manifestation capabilities." - From the companion book In her tenth--yes, tenth!--oracle deck, angel therapist Doreen Virtue imparts wisdom from Ascended Masters. Spanning every culture and spiritual tradition, these masters are said to have certain "specialties" of expertise--aiding seekers and offering guidance within the realm of these specializations. For example, the Greek god Apollo can help you focus on your innate strengths, while The Green Man leads you into nature and its many gifts. Lugh, the Celtic sun god, encourages persistence while the beloved master of Christianity, Jesus, invites all to open their heart to love. As with Doreen's other decks, the Ascended Masters Oracle Cards number 44. And like her recent decks, these cards have a lovely shiny gilt edging. The 104-paged companion book provides a brief overview of deck clearing, preparing for guidance, and performing readings. The rest of the companion book explains the theme of each card, as well as various card meanings and a brief bio of the Ascended Master. Some of the Ascended Masters found in this deck--and the wisdom they offer--include: * White Buffalo Calf Woman - Peace Offering * El Morya - Clear and Shield Your Energy * Krishna - Find the Blessing in Your Current Situation * Melchizedek - Spiritual Law of Attraction * Isis - Balance Career and Home Life * Paul the Venetian - Artistic Expression * Moses - Take Charge of This Situation * Maitraya - Power of Joy * Mother Mary - Nurture Yourself * Epona - Crystals * Thoth - Write * Paramahansa Yogananada - Choose Peace * Hilarion - Health and Healing * Pallas Athena - Detach from Drama As I first began working with this deck, I wasn't sure how I felt about it. There were "Masters" I had never heard of and a few were obscure. For example, I had no idea who "Mahachohan Ragoczy" was--and after Googling the name, only found one reference! After further research, I discovered an alternative spelling (M. Rakozi) and realized that he--and the other obscure "Masters" (such as Paul the Venetian, Serapis Bey, Lady Nada and Kuthumi)--are referenced in the writings of Theosophy...an esoteric spirituality based on writings of Alice A. Bailey, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, and Madame Blavatsky. Initially, I did a 3-card reading with the Ascended Masters Oracle Cards and felt it to be inaccurate and irrelevant. Yet, the next day, I performed a one-card reading on a writing project, and found it to be surprisingly accurate. In fact, the card I drew (Lugh)--and his accompanying wisdom--actually described a *specific* component of my project...word for word! I was stunned. So this highly accurate reading gave me pause--and I reconsidered the reading from the night before. I realized that the wisdom it offered was unfolding--and actually gave relevant insights now that the light of a new day illuminated the previous reading. I'm inclined to think, then, that this deck crosses dimensions of time and space--quite fitting for a decidedly New Age oracle! I feel that the decorative border colorings are too bland on some cards (especially the ones with muddy brown, dull gold, and dreary olive), and some of the images are so-so. Others are quite attractive and even ethereal. A few of the New Age Ascended Masters look identical in the face as the same artist painted them--but the colors chosen are gorgeous. From Ganesh to Merlin, Paravati to King Solomon, the Ascended Masters Oracle Cards provides a wide range of wisdom from various cultures and traditions, appealing to seekers on a broad spiritual path. Those familiar with the "7 Ray" New Age teachings will be especially delighted that Masters such as Saint-Germain are given honor in this deck. As always, this deck can be used in conjunction with Doreen's other decks, which will likely add another layer of depth to a reading.

The product arrived damaged (not the packaging), and my son was very disappointed.
Arrived sealed with 2 battle styles sword & shield base, darkness ablaze & celestial storm
Got a lot of cards that completed my evolution chains plus two V cards. Plus it was boxed super well, no way for the box to be slipping around at all. Plus every thing was still factory sealed!
Had a group of Army and Marine friends over the house for some drinks...even let a dirty Seaman join us. Busted out the game and it got ridiculous. I definitely recommend this for all the crusty Vets out there
Ok first off im not aware if scamming people and not thinking i was gonna call kidzgeek.com and report this crap of a box all cards was open and all rares taken
I'm not sure how much of this is accident or design. The metal counter is smooth metal that does spin. But the fact that part of it comes off very easily and the spinners usually just fly off if you're not holding it tightly. I realize that it's not a spinner device which means it can be used easily as a counter, but I really think for the price it would be stronger.
Decent quality dice with very different styles. Some are nicer looking than others, and feel better in quality (none have readability issues in my eyes). Overall pleased with the order. No problem with package or shipping delays.
