Yokiboy1010 Schotten-Totten, and Battle Line, are great games for pre-teens. I've personally playe Battle Line, without the tactics cards with my then 8-year old daughter, and we had a really good time. However, I believe you should be about 10 to really get the most out of the strategy in this game.
robingoblin94Yes My older son plays the full game and plays it fairly well. My 4 year old plays it without the strategy cards; even though he has a limited grasp of the different combos, he can play well enough for it to be fun.
shawndumas910Yes Pre-teens and teens will have no trouble and are likely to enjoy. No half naked women, gore, cursing, or morbidity.
boltongeordie89Yes Takes a bit of learning, so not for the young ones, but a great game which can be a real nail-biter with some really tough decisions (so not one for a child who lacks confidence).
laraberrycross810Yes Trying to remember the ranking of the different combos is tough at first, but it's a lot of fun to play.
Mark88 Pretty abstract but (thin) battle theme may appeal to some teens.
mawiker88Yes  
mentis88Yes Essentially an abstract game with a light theme, but that does not dampen game play. The game is nicely done.
metalchorus88Yes Good two player game. Good for kids 8 and up.
The Unbeliever78Yes Nice introduction to bluffing, press your luck, and area control concepts.
wkusau79Yes Some kids get it and some don't. The ones that do really enjoy it.
Yollege77Yes We don't play it enough, but my 8 yr old enjoys it.
guantanamo612Yes Just ok of a game for kids.
