BaSL812Yes For more experienced teenage gamers.
duchamp810Yes Point allowance system and exploring - nice theme, complex mechanics - for the more experienced gamers of them kids!
Mark810Yes Less abstract than most euro games. Older kids may enjoy the exploration theme.
ERPriest78Yes Our kids like it OK, but it tends to drag on and the competition for the temples can get heated. One of the games that is classically criticized for analysis paralysis, though we've not had too much problem. Probably too complex for younger kids.

Ed the Red510Yes Quite complex, though beautiful to look at and with an interesting theme. Difficult for the younger end of the range to play as there are a lot of possibilities on each turn. Hard for a 10 year old to play it truly independently, older children wold probably enjoy it more.
Shade_Jon510Yes A pretty game, doesn't seem to appeal to kids, because it's pretty contemplative. They like stealing the excavations away from each other, however. An exploration game where each turn you have 10 action points to do a limited number of things.
