I am sorry, but I cannot review it right now. It is a gift for my son for Christmas and I haven’t opened it. So he will get it on Christmas Day. He knows about your product because this is what he requested. He wanted it really bad, so I ordered it for him right away, and he doesn’t know it. So if you would like to send this to me after the 25th, I would be happy to review your product or my son would. Thank you!

We love Otrio!! It’s such a simple game but the added twist to the basic tic tac toe game makes it more enjoyable over and over again. The inventor’s edition is very luxe and well made. Totally worth it!! Makes for great decor too ;)

One of my all time favorite games and this version may be pricy but it’s definitely worth it with look and feel great quality
Ernest S.
The craftsmanship and beauty of the game is top notch. Everyone we introduce to the game loves it!

Otrio is a very fun game for all ages! Quick to learn, but challenging. It's a perfect game for families, and especially family Holidays when everyone wants to participate.
This Inventor's Edition is beautiful and well made. It can be left out as a display piece that will be admired, spark conversations, and be played!
The artist signs the reverse side of the playing board as advertised, but I received a kind note as well.
Thank you!
Deborah M.
It never arrived. Pity because I had for one before for my daughter and she loved it.
Marc B.
Cool game, aesthetically a beauty, leave it out on your coffee table. Only improvement I see would be a copper color instead of the silver or gun metal for easier viewing.
Julie K.
This is a surprisingly engaging and intriguing game. The beautiful wood board and metal pieces are so pretty and artistic that we leave the game out on our coffee table. We have introduced it to friends and everyone has loved playing it.
Renee K.
We have had fun over the holidays playing Otrio……I like the way it looks on our coffee table too.

A tactile pleasure becoming part of our family memories, Otrio caters for competitive grandfathers and young people who really want to win a straight line, how hard can it be? Keep an eye on competitive grandfathers, sleight of hand is a skill you have to teach youngsters to spot. Meanwhile the master fabrication and perfection of this board and the rings makes all the paper, card board and plastic usually handled seem a distant memory, for other people.

WHERE do I start?! Oh my gosh, we are hooked! We live in New Orleans, and a very dear friend of mine is no joke, a NASA rocket scientist, and he turned us onto the game. I swear I think we played for four hours! My best friend, and I ordered it the same day! We brought it home for Thanksgiving and we annihilated our siblings. The thrill of annoying our brothers was everything! They are the worst sore winners, and we finally found a game that they could not dominate. It’s such a different mindset to play this. You have to count on everybody blocking the next person. So it takes everyone to win or lose, and as you see in the photos, even Trouble (poodle)got in on it! Rebel the yellow lab crashed out. Thank you so much for inventing the game based on cafeteria booths! Proof that inspiration can be found anywhere. Keep inventing!
Rachel H.
We love this game! However we painted our gray pieces as it was difficult to tell them apart from the black pieces. Copper would be a nice option with the other metal colors.
I have purchased several games as gifts. Is it possible to get replacement pieces? If so, I would like to order one small black piece.
Please let me know if this is possible and how I can pay for it.
Thank you,

It’s not just a game it’s like art! We have this version in one space and have the original version on our kitchen table as a centerpiece sometimes. It’s the game our whole family enjoys and a great one to play with the teens.
Anne-Sophie B.
Excellent jeu, bel objet!
Jessica M.
This game is so much fun. It’s quick. You can play one round or 10. This version is so pretty in the room, that it doesn’t need to be put away. Fun for kids and and adults!
Gail G.
I bought this as a gift for my daughter and her family. They didn't understand why I would buy a fancy set when I could have bought a plastic one. After playing a while, the grandkids told me they loved the feel and look of the nice metal materials an appreciated that I bought a high end version!
Andrew T.
My friends and myself absolutely love this game. I originally played the game with the multicolor plastic pieces that a friend had brought over. I loved it so much that I purchased the inventors edition. When not in use I leave it out on the coffee table as it makes a beautiful art piece as well. Also by leaving out and not storing it away in a closet it can make for a conversation piece which will inevitably lead to some friendly games where hours of gameplay flyby. A standard game of tic tac toe can be boring in which most games end in a tie, but not this game. This game almost always has a winner and motivates you to play another round. You will not be disappointed with the purchase of this game.
Ryan M.
Very fun game the whole family plays. Looks great too!
Dan M.
I learned of your game at a friends house and ordered while was there. It makes for great entertainment and brain “exercise”. I’m so glad I got the version with metal rings…. Super high quality, and will surely outlive me! It’s going to be in my family a long, long time! Thanks for such a great product.
Petya G.
So beautifully made and our whole family loves it!
Bridget G.
The Otrio set is the perfect centerpiece in our living room. We love to hosts guests and play!
Claudia R.
We love our Otrio set! I’ve been buying this game as housewarming, birthday, hostess gifts since I was o traduced to the game by my mom! It’s the only game or activity that keeps my college boys engaged when the come home. They’ve each asked for the game to be sent to the college dorms as well. Honestly, this is one of the best things that I have recommended. I love this game and so will all who purchase ! Enjoy!
Nancy W.
Gave as a new home gift. Couple loved it and enjoyed playing!
Marjorie M.
This is a wonderfully entertaining game. It’s easy to learn and fun to play. I love that each game only lasts a few minutes to it’s not a commitment. It get more complicated when three or four people play. We love it. Family fun for all.
Joerg F.
This is a very nice game with great craftsmanship. Fun to play nice to look at and a great gift too.
Connor D.
Great product and fanatical customer service.
Gabriel J.
Wat een geweldig spel is dit! Niet alleen is het spel "boter-kaas-eieren" opnieuw uitgevonden, maar heeft meerdere lagen gekregen, waardoor je weer opnieuw je hersens kunt kraken. EN in deze prachtige uitvoering al helemaal een feest om naar te kijken, als object in je interieur te plaatsen. Zoals vroeger het schaakspel. Werkelijk geweldig! Wij zijn fan. Onze kinderen zijn fan. EN we hebben intussen al meer dan 10 Otrio spellen gekocht, voor onszelf en om kado te geven. Peffect!
Liza C.
The whole family including Piper loved our new game!
Margaret L.
Bought this for several people everyone loves the game it’s a great challenge and makes your brain work and people can still mingle while playing.
Barbara B.
This is a FUN game!! It’s like 3 dimensional tic tac toe for 4 players. Lots of thinking required.
Mary R.
We love this game. My husband, who doesn’t like games (like literally none) loves it. My almost 6 year old, loves it (we slightly modify the rules). Simple but really makes you think. Awesome that you can flex from 2-4 players. Incredible customer service. Beautiful design and fun. Win win!
Tricia S.
Nice quality game, looks good on the coffee table. We have enjoyed getting to know how to play. Simple rules, but will keep being fun to master.
Erica J.
Awesome! High quality, gorgeous on the coffee table, fun to play! Highly recommend!
Lucia H.
I played this with some friends before Christmas and loved the game so much that I had to order one! I couldn't wait to get it. I bought the inventor's edition, it's so beautiful you can leave it out on your coffee table. Thank you!!!
Jina W.
Brady, this inventors edition is amazing! I love the thick beautiful board and the metal pieces are just stunning. Have always loved Otrio since the first time we got to play it with you at The Lady Next Door but this kicks it up a whole lot!
Kathleen B.
This is one of the most beautifully crafted games I've seen. Not only was the woodwork on the game board perfect, the rings of various metals attractive, but the packaging itself was a work of art. The stunning copperish metallic circles and brand logo were so lovely, I decided not to wrap the gift at all...just added a copper bow and done! It's cocktail table worthy, much like a fine chess set. I will be ordering again when I decide who of my friends deserves such a treasure!
Randy M.
It is a wonderful game for those who enjoy chess, checkers, and other strategy games. The concepts are easy to understand, but the more you play the more complex the actual game becomes. I love this game!
Joe S.
Otrio is a fantastic game with a sleek, stylish appearance that makes it a good display item when not in use. The game play is challenging enough to be engaging but fast-paced enough to keep every involved. Definitely recommend it.
Maris B.
Such a fun and unique game that is a conversation starter and an excelent decor piece for your home.
Sarah B.
We love this game. It is so fun and so well crafted- it’s beautiful and just as fun to display as it is to play it.
KATHLEEN P.
We love playing this game, so far kids from 7 to 66 years old have played. The game board and pieces are beautiful. I’m so glad I bought the inventors edition, well worth it.
Jaclyn B.
I bought Otrio for my sister as a thank you gift. It combines two of her favorite things: art and games!
It is an absolutely beautiful piece of art and looks gorgeous on her coffee table. The game is fun, easy and can be challenging at times. This unique gift is something she will always cherish and enjoy.
Debra A.
It's really fun and looks great on the coffee table!
Beth B.
Very beautiful design and construction! There are three of us who usually play the game... it was fun and we think it would be even more enjoyable when four play. Thank you! ~the NC Browns
Shari S.
What a fun game and enjoyed by all in the family! It’s well made and beautiful to display. Love it. Highly recommended.
Jane L.
Hi Brady!
I purchased Otrio as a Christmas gift for my husband. We traditionally buy a new game annually to share with family during the holidays. The game arrived in a timely fashion and was beautifully packaged. When he opened it he was delighted with the exceptional quality of the board and the game pieces. It is a work of art! Then, we played.... it is deceptively simple and intellectually complex at the same time! We love it and can’t wait to share with our family(once we are able to see them again)! Thanks for the beautiful, challenging new game. It was the best gift of the season!
Sincerely,
Jane Lang
Scott S.
We are totally loving this game. It has just been the two of us so far with the need to stay inside. We just had the opportunity to play four players and enjoyed it even more. We have the metal edition and it looks so classy when not being played. Our only feedback is wishing the smallest pieces were taller. They are hard to pick up with their current height. If you could make taller ones, we would be interested in buying replacements! Highly recommend! It is so simple a
Concept and yet mentally challenging! Perfect for engaging the brain. Thanks!!! We needed this!
Martha R.
My mother bought this game for me, and our family loves it. First, it's an easy game to learn. Second, it seems to be a hard game to master, and perhaps more importantly, it's a game where young players can fairly match mature players easily. And finally, it's a beautiful game with a great tactile feel to the walnut board and the aluminum pieces. Thanks for inventing it, and creating it with style.
Thyra C.
Love it! Definitely worthy of table space in LR as the walnut board is lovelyand contrasting metallic rings offer contrast.
Elaine F.
Also great for 2 players playing all 4 colors simultaneously. This keeps you on your toes. Then, when you are done the limited edition will add wonderfully to modern/ vintage design pieces.
Tom N.
Hi Brady, The Otrio Inventor Edition arrived in time for Christmas and met all of our expectations. It arrived beautifully boxed, and once opened we found the game a beautiful combination of form and function. Beautiful to look at with simple, clear instructions for a fun play. Thanks for your creativity. Keep dreaming !
Tom
Penny W.
Wonderful quality and beautiful board. My husband and 10 year old granddaughter have a challenge going. She is getting very good with the strategy and winning almost as many games as her grandpa!
Steve S.
This game is gorgeous, and super fun.
Anthony M.
Great game! Santa happened to bring the Inventor’s Edition to our house this year and my wife, two teenagers and myself cannot get enough of it! With multidimensional ways to win, it’s actually more challenging than it appears and teaches one to think strategically way past the next move. To me, this is better than just another game of chance. I was initially attracted to this game by the the pure looks of it - it jumped off the page of the magazine I was reading (Dwell). CNC-engraved walnut that is super-precise looking appealed to my preference for well-designed items. Placing the aluminum pieces in the grooves is oddly satisfying. The overall design is fantastic and it is literally the ONLY game in our house we allow to sit out of it’s packaging on a table as it looks like an art piece as much as it does a game. My only critique would be that in certain lighting, the space gray colored pieces can look like the black pieces (adapting to the environment is part of any game and my son has learned to use this to his advantage!). Overall, I highly recommend!
Katie R.
This game is a lot of fun! I brought this home to my family who were apprehensive at first but as soon as we got into the game everyone was taking it very seriously. Once you understand the strategy behind winning, you won’t want to stop playing! It also pairs well with wine as your opponents quickly become worse at the game a few glasses in!
Montez V.
Otrio was a Christmas gift for my family--daughter, son-in-law, and two grandchildren (ages 9 and 13). We live 600 miles apart and have not seen each other in person for over a year now; we visit on FaceTime often. In talking with them a couple of days ago, they said they love the game and are glad to have something a little "different" than is trending with friends...think it is "really cool" and enjoy the game very much. I saw your add in Dwell magazine. Thank you for your great craftmanship. I will ask about getting a photo to send.
Carli P.
The game is beautiful! I have it displayed in my living room and everyone loves playing it.
Lee W.
Otrio was a Christmas gift to my daughter's family and they love it! They really enjoy the various modes of play and we all think it's just so beautifully designed and crafted!
Gordie P.
Great game! Easy to learn and many levels of strategy. Classy looking too when you order the Inventor's Edition.
Kevin S.
Love this game. I have been sharing with several family members. Great conversation ..welllllll its kinds like tic tac toe but better... great entertainment
Stuart C.
Great game, the whole family loves it - from ages 5 - 40!
Susan M.
This is a beautiful game. We gave it as a gift and the recipient said it was a great hit -- easy to learn and fun to play. Highly recommend!
Stacy W.
I bought this because my 12 year old loves tic tac toe. This adds 2 more layers of challenge to it. I beat him the first few games, but then he started beating me. You have to be careful not to lose sight of what your opponent is doing! Great game!
Ken W.
Looks good just sitting there waiting to be played
Monica M.
Fun, easy to lean game that is challenging but not overwhelming!
Beautiful inventors edition, we leave it out all the time!
Jean B.
My son was blown away by the quality of craftsmanship and materials of this edition compared to the plastic version he already owned. A pleasure to have displayed!
Dana R.
We love the game; it is clever, relaxing, fun and good looking ! We purchased a second one for a Christmas gift .
We came to realize during this crazy time that playing a board game gives one the opportunity to reject the phone, tv, all the white noise and focus on the game with a loved one, proving the space to reconnect. We play it quite often!
Rebecca S.
Beautiful game! Perfect to leave on the table for quick rounds off and on. Best present ever for my husband!
Todd S.
Our entire immediate family [4 families in total] all have Otrio games and LOVE them. My wife and I decided to include the Otrio Inventor's Edition as part of our joint Christmas present. The craftsmanship of the Inventor's Edition is superb! In addition, Brady and his family display personal attention in all of their communication. We could not be happier! Thanks!
Shari O.
A picture of the Otrio game in Dwell magazine caught my eye and I knew I wanted one on my coffee table. I felt it would be a wonderful conversation starter as well as a fun game for family and friends.. Unfortunately, this year of COVID has prevented all the gatherings at my home I normally enjoy, even so Otrio has proven to be all that I hoped.
Brenda A.
We purchased this for friends who just completed a fabulous mountain retreat as a house warming gift for the family. He is an architect so we knew he would appreciate the design and materials. We have not seen it in person but they were so impressed that they gifted one to friends the next day, impressive I think... This will be our standard gift to friends who appreciate a board game that they can leave out on the coffee table and enjoy with the children, family and friends.
Brenda
Mark S.
Otrio is *GREAT!* My family plays a pretty wide variety of games and Otrio quickly moved to the top of our list for games to play this holiday season. We love the simplicity of learning how to play and then the complex strategies that can be used when playing. It's a terrific game for all age groups and, if you're not paying attention, even a 5-year old can beat you. (It's true!!)
Michael D.
We love this game. I bought 2. Very for apre ski etc.
Lisa A.
I purchased this as a gift for my daughter and longtime boyfriend. They love it! They have a really fun time playing. Thank you!
Al H.
We love this game, had the original colorful board and decided to splurge on the fancy one with metal rings. Goes great with our midcentury/Industrial vibe we have in our home. And our cat just looks perfect on it! (see the picture)
Adam J.
The game is fun and the board and pieces are absolutely beautiful! We love it
Joy E.
I bought this for my daughter and we all loved it. The quality is fantastic, definitely a coffee table game to be left out. We had fun playing the game, which was new to us all.
sal p.
My family loves games. My nine year old and his mom have been playing nonstop since i got mom the game for christmas. It’s fantastic.
Andrew Q.
tic-tac-toe is a very simple game. Otrio takes this concept to a whole new level by creating multiple win scenarios and thus a wonderfully strategic approach to the game! I have played with adults as well as teens and we all LOVED IT!
The board and pieces are beautifully made of walnut and anodized aluminum - I'm certain it will outlast any other game I own and be a family favorite for many years to come!
Tondi H.
We love this game and the inventors edition is stunning.
susan R.
at first we were a bit afraid of it but started playing and now have all friends and family buying a board and gave it out as gifts even when you were back ordered. we just love how quickly the game can be played while using our brain power . highly recommended for all
Rosalind M.
This was a gift for my adult son he loved it.
John G.
Many more chances to win than I would have guessed, or even see when we are playing.
Andrew B.
We just bought the Inventors Edition of Otrio as a Christmas gift. It is beautifully made. Thus we are still learning 2 person strategies. The idea is for 2 persons to play the 4 person game. Alternating turns giving each a chance to win with either of his or her two colors. An excellent way to spend time away from the TV serial reruns while isolating from the virus.
Jen B.
This is the best game ever! It was a family Christmas present that we opened Christmas Eve. It is SO addicting that after each game my kids would say “OK one more game”. We stayed up WAY too late. I like it because it makes the kids learn to think strategically, all while having a blast. I might add that it is beautifully constructed...actually too pretty to be shoved in a game closet.
Again, thanks for a fantastic game. What a find!
Mitch B.
This is the best game ever! It was a Christmas gift for the fam that we opened Christmas Eve. It is SO addicting. After every game my kids would say “OK, one more game”. We stayed up WAY too late, and consequently woke up WAY too late this morning. I might add that is a beautiful game, solidly constructed and just very pretty. Really shouldn’t even be put in a game closet. Finally, it only took about three practice runs for us to completely
Jacob F.
I hadn't heard of Otrio until I saw it advertised in Dwell magazine. I love the game because it's simple enough that my 9 year old can play and strategic enough that my wife and I can play for hours on end. Plus, the Inventor's Edition looks so beautiful in my mid-century home that I can leave it out and it actually doesn't bother me. Imagine that! A game that I don't mind being left out!
Rebekah S.
We absolutely love this clever and attractive game. My husband bought it for my birthday, and it’s had pride of place on our coffee table ever since. This is one game you will want to keep on display and not tucked away in the closet. It’s also very, very fun to play. We’ve purchased two more as Christmas gifts for discerning relatives.
Extra shout out to the owner for his excellent customer service.
Rebekah, Washington DC
Tom G.
Quality is first rate. Beautiful wood finished well, nicely anodized aluminum game pieces. A great game to relax to.
Tish G.
I was trying to figure our what to get my guy for his birthday...we're both really into board games, and he's always buying things on kickstarter so surprising him with a game he hasn't heard of is HARD. Plus we both like beautiful games we can display, with well crafted pieces and a timeless look.
Otrio to the rescue! I saw the ad for this game in Dwell, and after researching it I knew it'd be the perfect present. It's actually BETTER than described, the quality of the pieces is excellent, and the game itself is simple yet challenging. HE LOVES IT and so do I!
Even cooler...while placing my order I had the pleasure of chatting with Brady the inventor and not only has he created a spectacular game, he's also a really great guy! So I feel extra good about my money going to a small business owner!
Whether you are into board games or not, Otrio is a fun, simple game that enhances both home and play. I'll definitely be ordering it as gifts for our gaming friends in the future!
Andy L.
The inventors edition is a very classy version of this fast-paced, fun game that my family loves to play. The board and game pieces have a substantial look and feel to them.
This edition draws attention in any room and invites people to play. I highly recommend. You won’t be disappointed with the quality!
Angela W.
Our family loves Otrio. From the adults to the kiddos. A game board that has replaced checkers and is never put away in our home. We got the inventors edition for our guest room for others to enjoy. You can not go wrong if you are looking for quick thinking game! The inventor, graciously, took the time for my kiddos to interview him as well ... don't think you can get better service than that!
Filipa P.
The game is beautiful. The wood, the pieces and the packaging, it's all so beautiful. The game itself is super smart and you just want to play again and again. My teenage sons love it as much as I do: When you play with 4 people after each round we always talk about what happened and why that person won and who's responsibility was it to stop it from happening! Great family fun.
Fantastic game! Love it!
Amanda S.
The board and pieces are absolutely gorgeous! They're very well made and heavy. It's definitely worth the price. The game itself is fun to play but difficult to master.
The top of the game box came split at the corners due to shipping; because it was a present I contacted customer service who happened to be the inventor himself! Brady was incredible and offered to send me a replacement box. He also threw in the silicone gasket from the special editions for free! Thanks again Brady!
I'm so pleased with the purchase and my husband was very happy with his gift!
Hiroko L.
Otrio seems simple until it twists your mind until you can't go back. No, seriously, it's a devilishly clever game that will have you playing for hours. And the inventors edition has a super refined beautiful finish.
Matt M.
Loved playing with the entire family. We've done 2 players, 3 players and 4 player games. Even made up a few of our own rules along the way depending on the skill level of the players. Quality built game that everybody we've shown has loved.
Pamela L.
I just got this Otrio Inventor's edition as a gift and I absolutely love it! It's a game-a really fun one for all ages-but this is also art. It is beautiful and functional which is something I really value in products these days. It is very high quality and the playing pieces are metal so the whole thing looks and feels substantial-yet elegant. Would be beautiful in a modern setting but as you can see it looks great with my farmhouse decor as well! I'll be ordering a few of these as holiday gifts. Perfect hostess gift for someone special. Would make a fantastic wedding gift for a couple starting out. Can't say enough about it. It's pretty rare that I find myself this pleased with a purchase. Don't hesitate to order one before they sell out.
Andy W.
What a fun game for the entire family! The Inventor's Edition comes with a beautiful board that is a piece of art in itself. I highly recommend buying the game for a birthday or Holiday present. It combines strategy and good wholesome fun for you and your crew!
Bambi V.
While I bought the inventor's edition for its aesthetic qualities, I found it to be a fantastic game to play. From the 10-year-old on up to the 85-year-old, it's fun for all and quick to play—though play tends to go on and on. Members of my family then purchased the colorful plastic version for themselves and their friends, and we found the inexpensive colorful version much easier to use, because the inventor's version's beautiful metal pieces are quite similar in color (in some lighting situations). Anyway, Otrio (with its super-clever name) is a total winner.
