I'm torn between this version and the younger version for family of four with 13 & 15 yr old boys. Opinions?

Unfortunately I haven't played the younger version, but my good friend played the kids version with his entire family and they had a blast, so I think you wouldn't be bored with it. This game is unique in the fact that the format is what makes it challenging, not what is written on the cards.

I never played the version for youngsters. I know the adult one is probably "over their heads". Pardon the pun.It can be difficult as there are questions geared to the older generation for sure.

At that age they should manage just fine with the Adult version. It includes many Disney and fictional characters and things we encounter everyday. They will be able to manage. There may be a few (about 15) cards which they may not know but this will get them thinking as the kids version is too easy for their age group. Hope this helps!

The adult version will be the best one for your family.......Hours of fun and laughs

I have a 6 yr old daughter and 4 yr old son. My kids have played together with it many times over the past two years. If your son is into imaginative play he will likely enjoy it as well.

I think it is geared more towards smaller kids but I think 6/7 year olds will still enjoy them if they like music at all. Symbals rarely get old, tamborines are always fun. With the low price on the set I think it would be worth the risk.

To be honest with you I have the rush and the kid Zumba and my 7 year old son as well as my 9 year old daughter both choose the rush over the kids version but I think it depends on the kid. I have a 15 year old that likes the kids one just because justin beiber has a song on it lol but I would go for it. Even if she has a bit of trouble getting the hang of it she will totally have a blast spending time with you. Not to mention if you look half as silly as I do workin out, she'll probably be in heaven. Just keep the video camera hidden. Hope this is helpful and good luck. :)

I use the Family version with the teens in my youth group. They love it and the adults do too. We all find it challenging. When we have more people that player cards, we just choose teams and work together. No one seems to mind and we still enjoy the game.

I think it would have been fine for my children when they were 10. It is not a toy, but it is sturdier than some of the cheaper ones. May be a good lesson and it is simple to use.

I recommend purchasing the newer version. I own and love the old version and the new version has the option of adding a twist but you can just chose to play it the traditional way. The biggest reason I would recommend purchasing the new one if the words and people are more current and relevant to today.

This particular version is for ages 7 to adult. They have a Junior version for younger kids.

I have a five year old, and she is able to figure out this game. Certain levels seem harder, but she will ask for help. Don't waste your money on the younger version.

I would personally recommend multiple sets. My three will sometimes play nicely together with them but with the size of them there really not an easy way for more than 3 kids to even watch the play easily. Most of the games are a little complicated for a 2 year old but I think they are easily for 4-adult. I love some of the games!!

I think this is the same game just w/ smaller pieces. We play this game at home all the time and the size is not a problem for my 8&11yr olds. I think the bigger pieces would be easier to line up for some kids.

I would go with teenage and up, too. A younger kid would know all the words and people, I think, but may have a hard time describing them compared to adults.

The 4 1/2 would adore this this game. I haven't played dominion, (I eant it for my family though) but it really depends on your 12 year olds personality. If s/he enjoys playing games with younger sibling then I would say its definitly a fun game. But for the older child to play without the younger sibling it would probably be not so enjoyable. Its a nice game of memory.With that being said, this game I find is better than typical kid games (chutes and ladders, candy land etc.) when including older kids with it.

Probably. I gave my son his when he was 4 and it wasnt easy for him to figure it out at first. Plus I really recommend getting the 3 instead. Its wayy better than the 2. Alot easier to use.

It depends on the 4-5 year old. My son who just turned 5 can build the 8+ sets without much assistance. He didn't find the juniors sets very exciting at all, we tried those when he was 4. He prefers the themed sets (lego movie/star wars/mixels) over the simple juniors one. As a general rule he can do the regular sets with less than 300(maybe 400) pieces on his own, and requires slight assistance with ones that have more.

I think it is geared towards kids but it's certainly fun for all ages. We (my husband and I) play with our 6, 10, and 13 year old. Our 6 year old often beats us and it's not for our lack of trying! But it's still fun for us!

Not in my opinion. My son has some friends that age, and they have really enjoyed it as well. Hope that helps!
