So we grew up with Monopoly, Life, Clue, etc. I wanted to get into "real" board games and this is the first one I tried. It's more complex but there are plenty of online streaming videos that can help shortcut the learning curve. This is a great game that even my young kids could play 9-10 years old when they first tried. There are lots of expansion packs for more players and scenarios. Highly recommend to start.

Kids and adults love it. I have kids from 13 to 7. Encourages critical thinking, strategy building and cooperation. They would play every day if we could.

If you don't know this game you should. If you haven't played it yet then try it! There are places where you can play these games in most cities so that you could probably try it before you buy it. If not, buy one anyway and if you don't really like it you could surely find someone to give it to who would! It takes a little effort to learn, but not too much - even my eight year old daughter loves it! It doesn't usually take as long as monopoly can and it's certainly faster than games like Alies and Axis. It does seem a little expensive for being mostly cardboard, but, it is worth it for the amount of fun you get, especially considering how important it is to have your kids spend time away from cell phones and video games!
