helenoftroy107Yes This is a great party game that all ages can play, a great replacement for Jenga and much prettier. It is definately a game that can be played at a child's birthday party, boy or girl, but also brought to family gatherings for everyone all ages to play.
BaSL96Yes Great dexterity game, which requires some skill; more then - say - Jenga, so not for the very young.
fsumarc96Yes Great dexterity game for kids and adults. being a dexterity game, those with shaky hands need not apply. build the tower higher and higher by moving your columns from lower levels to higher levels. Teaches basic balance dynamics as well as visual and hand/eye co-ordination.
liga95Yes One of the best game for game session with kids because it is fast, easy to learn and playable almost by everyone
wyldeoad94Yes As a shared and challenging building activity as young as 4 can enjoy. Probably 6 or so to participate in the competition of the game. It requires less fine motor skill than Jenga, so younger ones can play. But, it has more game-like element than Jenga. All with the same building tension as everyone waits for the tower to fall.
Admiral Fisher85Yes Nice manipulation game for kids and adults to play together and it's good for adults after a few glasses of wine!
christiankilloran86Yes An excellent next step for kids who enjoyed Blockhead when they were younger. Colorful and well-made, this game introduces more sophisticated balancing as well as a genuine multi-player dynamic. Point scoring adds some strategy to what is still mostly a dexterity game. Very popular with my family and friends of all ages.
flieger83Yes Excellent dexterity game, even for the young ones. With younger children, I recommend playing it on the (non-carpet) floor, because kids often bump the table so hard that the villa crumbles. Even my 3 year old daughter had fun with this one. It can also teach basic tactics.
phosrik85Yes Very fun dexterity game
shawndumas87Yes Pre-teens and teens will have no trouble and are likely to enjoy. No half naked women, gore, cursing, or morbidity.
TGov84Yes  
Doomfarer75Some Hard for the kids to get the tower stable, falls too easily for them.

prophx75 The girls really liked this game and taunting each other as the pieces are being pulled. There are many science lessons to be learned while playing the game and a good time overall. The wood pieces are brightly colored which brings another level of fun to it.
Yollege75Yes Fun, but the scoring will elude younger kids. But hey, who doesn't like stacking?
