is this the first level game?

As far as I know this is the first level. I believe it is called the 'original' Perplexus and I assume the others came after it and are more sophisticated games for people who mastered the original and were looking for more challenges. I have given it to a 5 year old and 8 year old grand-child and both were very enthusiastic - and so were their parents!

This is the "Original" version. There was a version before this one called the "Rookie" which was a little more simplistic and is noted for ages 6 and up. The Original is noted for ages 8 and up. It is such a fun game...my kids love it!

I'd say so. The game starts out pretty basic, but through the "unlockables" and advanced game modes there is a ton of room for increased complexity. I have a bright, game-playing, puzzle-doing 4 year old who loves Robot Turtles, and I'd estimate we've only tapped into about one quarter of what it offers.

This isn't a puzzle type of game. It's not like... Hey figure this out to move on. This game doesn't even fit in any game category, it's more of a category on its own. You play as the character and have objectives to do. Whether you do them or not will decide your factor in game ending. There's over 20 endings to the game.

I am not certain on all games, but a few I have played yes and some no. Thanks

Yes! There is a "Newbie" difficulty setting. In the menu, the main character is wearing a baby bonnett and sucking a pacifier ;-) You'll like this game and as you get better, play it on the next higher difficulty. Have fun!!

We haven't played this one yet. We played 'The Last Train From Paris' and our youngest participant was 11. All of our kids did fine. They have been begging to play another one.

No, they guide you through the first section how to play. Very easy to play beat the game in a month for a girl who's in her early 20s.

Yes. Although this is the older version of the game, there is a new one out.

The beginner Game includes everything you need to run a "canned" campaign. It's all premade with characters. An experienced GM could run with it and continue forward. The "new GM" that I gave this to felt it was too closed ended but a great starter to get his brain working. If you have a new GM it's a good place to start. If you have an experienced one start with the core rules and standard set instead.Hope this helps!

Definitely! There's 5 separate difficulty levels, which is more than what most games have. With each difficulty level, enemies become slightly stronger and more accurate, and you become more susceptible to damage.

No, it's on the cusp. Our kindergarten grandson understood & enjoyed playing the game. If you enjoy playing it--he or she will want to join in. Play together & enjoy!

Sure. However, its a pretty advanced game and it takes a long time to finish. Keeping that in mind, its a great game!

I think so!! I have been playing since I was little! It is a very linear game and easy to follow. It is a lot of fun

Yes. I tend to make my way through the levels and then go back and do levels in free play and explore the city, but you can. The nicest thing is that as you complete "city" tasks, new tasks open up. So you're not overwhelmed with tasks and it kind of make the game last longer.

Don't know, never played that game. Can vouch for the quality though. Worth the price.

It is difficult. It took my son (10) and I about 3 hours to figure out the whole game. We have also changed a few rules for faster play. That said, this game is amazing, and it feels like you are in an episode of the show. I hope you like it.

Looked at this game in stores and at reviews online. It looks like it can be fun for youth up to adult. Kind of a combo of sports, and video game (sort of) along with actual movement required to get the activity level up. At least that is our hope. No more hands-on experience available though--ours is still in the box.
