This game is recommended for ages 8+, however my 5-year old just LOVES it. We need to help him read the action cards, but he has gotten the trading down pat. He now knows how many of each card he needs to buy habitats with. This is a great game for the family. Winning is based on a combination of luck as well as skill.

We have many Cranium games but this is by far the worst. Too simplistic for my 8 year old (its for 8 and up). Basically no educational value. Simply a
trading game. Having said that my 6 and 4 year olds do seem to enjoy it. I do cringe when they pick it to play.

The kids got this last Christmas, and we finally got it out to play! It's a very pleasant game which my 10, 7, and 5 year olds liked a lot. It seemed a little overwhelming at first with all the cards, but the instructions were easy to follow. We were actively playing within 5 minutes. The game took about 20 minutes to get to a winner, but of course we kept going for 2nd, 3rd and last (me.) We have 6 kids and sometimes games can be a chore for me as a parent to play -- this one wasn't. I won't groan under my breath when they ask to play again!

I got this game for my daughter's eighth birthday and we have a great time playing it. Not only are you gathering items to trade in for zoo habitats (needed to win the game) but you are also guessing on the roll of a die which is great for learning the concept of probability. The game gets exciting when a player needs something really badly and lands on "Team Up." This allows all players to try to match the roll of the die. When it matches, mayhem ensues. Loved it.

This is a great game--brightly colored, educational, and durable. We play lots of board games in the winter months and this is one of our favorites. Can easily be adapted to make it a little easier for younger kids. The only prob I have is my kids fighting over the habitats.
