Is this game easy enough to pick up and play? My son is 6, loves WWE, but I'm not sure if this is too advanced for him.

This game is easy for anyone to play. I'm sure he will love it once he plays the game.

I'll be totally honest, this game has a lot of button combinations you need to know to do certain things. Although this game is awesome, I don't think I'd recommend it for someone that young. It may be a bit too advanced. I'd say 9 or 10 would be the minimum age for a game like this.

It is pretty simple to play it takes a little bit to get use to the controls but he will have fun playing it

It may be too much. It has a pretty steep learning curve. There are lots of move situations and kicking out of pins requires good timing. I might suggest WWE All Stars instead. It is more of a fighting game and really easy to pick up and play.

My 6 yr old son plays this game all the time with me. There is a learning curve with the game. It doesn't come with a manual, you have to download it from the games site

We just learned to play it from the rules. I read them and looked at everything ahead of playing - by myself - until I somewhat understood what was supposed to happen. I think all of these types of games have really detailed rules and you just need to go over them really well and think it out - or play first with someone who has played it before. Also - keep the rules handy for reference as you play the game. That is the best advice I can give. After you play it a couple times - it become's pretty easy and a game can be played in 30 mins. I have nephews & nieces that are 9 that play - maybe not with the most strategy - but they play.

I bought this game for a 29 year old and he loved it! I honestly don't know about children that young, nothing objectionable in it that I am aware of....requires a lot of manual dexterity.

Well, my daughter is almost 3. We haven't given her the game yet as we bought it for Christmas. I personally remember playing the original operation for a long time. I was probably 12 or 13 before I stopped playing. And now as an adult I can't wait to play it again with my daughter. I would have to think a 6 year old would LOVE playing this game. I hope my answer was at least a little helpful.

Not hard at all. The rules are a bit complicated, but they are all very intuitive once you've read through them. I've played with about 6 to 8 different people at various times and everyone has enjoyed the game and had a good time. I do admit that i don't think we have ever made it in the expected play time, but then we're enjoying ourselves so much we don't care. Play time does pick up once everyone is familiar with the rules, this last Saturday we completed one game, and just jumped right into a second one.

I think so, however the youngest I've known to play it is 8. If the 6 yr old grasps instructions well then he should be fine. It's the explanation of various combinations vs. just colour combos that may frustrate him. But there is no reading involved so he may just enjoy it for the combinations and patterns.

Good question! My kids are also smart and competitive, but they're a little older. The game is pretty complicated, so we think you shouldn't get it until you've got teenagers in your house. It will be worth the wait. :)

My son is 6 and my daughter is 8. Their friends have played it and loved it. My husband and I have played it and some of our friends and loved it. I think six ( any younger they might be to short) and older would be great.

I would think as young as 4 or 5 is age appropriate for this game. It's about recognition of colors and shapes, so if a child is able to distinguish those, it would be fun. Once they start playing, you will be able to tell if they are able to catch on, and if they aren't, it would be best to put up the game until they are able to catch on easier, to save them from being frustrated and not having fun. I've given these as gifts for kids as young as 4 and 5 and they have loved it. As adults playing with kids, naturally, you allow them to "win" a card to encourage play. It is fun with a group of kids with about the same skill level. My 8 year old can beat some adults!

If they know how to use the controllers, they will not have a problem playing this game. My 13 year old son says this is a fun game and suitable for their age.

It depends on the child. The game is fun, the rules are fairly dimple but a pittle deep and may require a little bit of reading between the lines.Ive played it with a 9 year old and he had fun, but he didnt quite grasp the concept.Your boy will probably grow to love it.

I bought this for my nine year old son. He asked for this particular game. He does not have the 1 or 2 versions. He loves it and plays it a lot. I don't believe you need the other two to enjoy this game. We got a used version, it is fine and was half the price.

I find Dominion to have a much higher replay value. There are millions of combinations of cards to play with. Meaning that you have to devise a new strategy with every game... it is lots of fun. Only downside is the game doesnt really pick up until you get a couple expansions. It's not hard to become a master at the base set. If you give your kids this Base Dominion set, they will be begging for expansions to this in no time at all. It can get a little costly, but totally worth it. Awesome game. I have played both 7 wonders and Dominion. However, I haven't played any 7W expansions and own almost all of the Dominion ones, so take that into consideration. .

The concepts are a little bit difficult to get the hang of at first but after the first play through it becomes so much easier. I guess it depends how old he is and how many people will actually play it with him, but the game itself is absolutely perfect for any fan

I play this with my 6 year old son. I recommend keeping the number of starships to a minimum. He starts to lose interest when battles take a while. Missions are good too. He beat me on one of the Falcon cargo runs with him playing the Empire. You can make the game simpler than it is. My son understands dice results, focus, evade, and target lock actions so it's still pretty fun.

Well, we only have the original W&W.; But I will say that my 9-year-old son loves this game. There have been very few questions that were over his head, and I wouldn't deem any of it "inappropriate." I guess that the gambling is simplified in the family version, but it's not overly complicated in the original version. All-in-all, I'd recommend the original. That said, I haven't played the others.

Yes the game is kid friendly but it might take him a little time to learn the controls hope this helps
