Would it be good for a fun youth group game? Or is it just for training?

Had one for over a year and it would be wonderful for kids. Softer and slightly bigger than a regular volleyball. Our 5 year old grandson can play just fine.

Depends on how old the kids are I think, if they are younger than ten I think they would like it.

It's larger and much softer than a normal volleyball. Probably best for training.

As a counselor I have found this game helpful with children to start them talking, for me to model for them being able to share personally. I've never used with adults in my practice. In a group it can also help people learn to actively listen to others without interrupting them, taking turns, etc. a little like passing a talking stick around a group. Deck one is more general and less likely to seem threatening to anyone, but with people who have an history of abuse it would be important to have a facilitator who can reinforce the simple rules, and ensure a safe space to share. So, the Ungame could be part of the help, but other strategies would be needed to build self esteeem.

Yes it's appropriate, but some of the pop culture may be pretty hard. They also offer a kids version of this game. I was told by friends of mine who played it, that it was still fun for everyone.

It would be great for that! This game is so much fun in big groups. We played it in large groups after a wedding and it was a big hit.

I'd guess no because it's pretty rules heavy for a card game so not sure most kids would have the patience. But Fantasy Flight put out an instructional video (on their site and youtube) that instructs through actual gameplay so you could check it out and see if the boys would be into it.

Adults will like the game, although it is geared for children! A great game for the family and each hand goes quickly. A fast pace game and that is what will draw adults to the game. Hope this helps!

I think it is geared towards kids but it's certainly fun for all ages. We (my husband and I) play with our 6, 10, and 13 year old. Our 6 year old often beats us and it's not for our lack of trying! But it's still fun for us!

I'm 32 and have fun with it. Use it for stress relief at work. We have a few catapults, tribuchets, ballistas, and crossbows that we ambush each other with. Might not be interesting enough for a teenager though, unless they like that sort of thing.

Yes. Every grown up who comes into my home think it's so cute! Then they try it and the kids are forgotten. It's not sturdy enough for a hard core competitive game, and they will bash hands but it's a lot of fun and laughter.

Yes I would say a smart 5 year old could play for a little bit.. subject wide range..fun game for a group

I think it's appropriate for ages 3 and up. Even as an adult, I enjoy playing it with my kids. It will not be a huge challenge for older kids, but they will still have fun looking for all the objects. And they either win as a team or lose as a team, so it's a good game to play together.

Yes. Definetely for adults. We were introduced to the game by another couple we met. The 4 of us played along with my 16yr old.

Yes, it is a very good game for older children and adults. My husband and I have enjoyed playing this game with our 10 year old, and there are very few games we can all agree on.

Yup. The game is good for adults. I wouldn't suggest it before age 10 or so, as simple as the rules are, reading comprehension is a must. Particularly good for folks who don't know each other well yet.

Several players can play and actually is more fun. My sister & my grandchildren played and loved it. There were 7 kids and 1 adult playing.

Yes, this is a great game for adults - in fact, that is the only group I play this with. I'm surprised to see such a young age range - I would not recommend it for anyone under 15. It requires planning multiple steps ahead, and I've found children have not developed that skill.

Depends on your family. We played with a 17 and 19 year old and they enjoyed it
