Winning Moves Chinese Checkers vs Hansen Chinese Checkers and Checkers Tin

Both are solid, traditional Chinese Checkers sets with 2-6 player support and glass-style marbles. The Winning Moves set has a sturdier platform board and clearer illustrated rules, which suits families who want a dedicated board that stays put. The Hansen tin adds a second game, traditional checkers, and packs into a dragon-themed tin that doubles as the board, so it suits travel, small storage and mixed-age groups. Owners rate the Hansen set well but not perfectly, with the tin and mesh bags being the main talking points.

• Choose the Winning Moves Chinese Checkers if you want a dedicated, sturdy platform board with illustrated rules for a family game shelf.
• Choose the Hansen tin if you want two games in one, a board that doubles as its own storage case, and a lower starting age for younger players.
