| Admiral Fisher | 10 | 6 | Yes | A wonderful game, though the English version Escape from Atlantis is better as the pieces are more interesting. Lots of simple strategy and a good dose of luck. It has the gobble factor that kids like and it's almost like a precusror to a lot of Euros today. |
| laraberrycross | 9 | 8 | Yes | You can't play too rough against kids, but it's a great game. |
| talhoffer | 9 | 6 | Yes | I will never turn down a game of Survive- this was my favorite boardgame as a kid. Elegant mechanics and oh so fun fun with a great 'take that!' feel that my family adores. |
| Thommy8 | 9 | 10 | Yes | |
| aljovin | 8 | 7 | Some | The game is marked 8 and up, and can probably be played with a younger crowd, but some reading skills are required to play the game,as there is text under the pieces. The game plays well with 3 or 4 players, but is lacking interaction when played with 2 players.
My sons enjoyed the game but prefer Escape from Atlantis (similar game, but 3D components). |
| bane221 | 8 | 8 | Yes | I did play this as a kid and simply loved it. It gives a chance to do some risk-benefit analysis on a kid level. |
| Gecko23 | 8 | 6 | Yes | The kids really liked this one as soon as they saw it, sending a sea monster or two after opponents being the obvious favorite part. Although there is a little text on some of the tiles, an older sibling or parent can read it. |
| sandys | 8 | 5 | Yes | What a fun game. You can't play too cutthroat with the kids and we have a house rule that you can't gang up one person, but we all really enjoyed this. My 5-year-old didn't have any trouble playing and really enjoyed dumping his brothers into the ocean and attacking them with the monsters. I could see where this might not be a game for someone who takes winning too seriously or gets their feelings hurt easily, though. |
| ed95005 | 7 | 10 | Yes | Kids and adults will find a lot to like about this. I thought this was out of print, though. |
