pmboos8  This is a great dexterity game with a very fun theme. It is probably the first work against the time game my son has played and he finds it enjoyable.
shumyum8  Probably the coolest childrens game we have. There is no interest in playing it by the real rules. Definitely needs to be thought of as a toy, at least for young children.
XaaK84Yes My daughter (2.5) is too young for this currently - but I am excited to play it with her when she is older. Moving the ghost around by magnet is just too hard right now. She does love the pieces however - and we often will just play with the castle and the ghost. On a side note: this game has been played several times in my adult game group with much laughter and enjoyment. As with all HABA games, this is a top quality product.
shawndumas74Some It's HABA which means great game bits! Good kids game. Pre-teens and teens are not likely to enjoy. No half naked women, gore, cursing, or morbidity.
Yollege74Some More a toy than a game, but it is fun for the kids. The 5 yr old had some trouble the first time, but did much better the next time we played. We'll try some of the numerous varients someday.
tiggle55No Very disappointing for our family. Pretty, but no fun. We've had this several years and have never made it through a single game. My daughter's friends don't care for it either. Kind of cool for a few minutes in a "Mousetrap" sort of a way, but more a toy than a game and not even a very fun toy. I wish we saw in it what others do. We'd certainly like to like it.
1wif45No An absolutely beautiful game, with the cutest little ghost ever...but just not a good game. One of the features is that there are three variations for the game, but they are so similar that if you don't like one, you won't like them all. I was disappointed in it, I really wanted to love it.
