4/5 & up. My 3 yr old granddaughter plays with us but doesnt have the patience or knows the concept yet. That is why i stated 4 or 5 as long as playing with someone older.

The game comes with simplified, quick start rules. Even with the quick start rules the game would be difficult for a 6 year old; however, he/she should be able to start learning the basic mechanics of the game or play with an adult. The manufacturer recommends 14 years of age or older. See GameBoardGeek.com for more detailed information about this fun game.

In stead of stopping at 12 it goes to 18. Only thing we found is pick up cheap calculators it makes game go faster. Lots of fun.

Our entire family loves this: ages 5-75! Although we usually play because of the youngest one, the truth is that we'd enjoy it with just the adults, too.

TLDR: playable by the whole family with a little coaching. The game box itself recommends players ages 10 and up. In my opinion, children who are familiar with Euro games and who have at least a middle school-level reading comprehension will probably be able to play competitively and find the game enjoyable. Having said that, be aware that younger players may face a particular challenge with learning this game initially. Each turn, players are called on to pick one card from a hand (which starts at seven and decreases each turn) to play. Trying to decipher the best choice is daunting at first, even for adults. My suggestion: play 1 or 2 open-hand dummy matches so that everyone gets a feel for it. Happy gaming!

Depending on who is playing, I think kids 8-10 who play monopoly & enjoy it, and really anyone who enjoy board games!

I have happily enjoyed playing with my daughter. I don't really think that there is an upper age limit; but an older child may be bored if playing alone. If playing with others, the game is fun at any age.

Depends on their focus level. My 12 y/o nephew loves the game and has picked up on parts of the rules that I have missed. I would say not younger than 10 or 11 though.

Two people can play it. We've played with as many as seven, but four seems to be the ideal amount. Great game!

This game can be played by both of the groups that you have proposed here, equally well. I haven't played with any kids under 13, and the 13 year old loves it, so I suspect the minimum age might be around 8 or 10.

our grandson is 6 and this is his favorite game, so I would say ages 6 and up.

The box says 7+, but you CAN use it with younger kids. We have a center with at least one student who's younger and it's helpful with keeping his attention. The game is best played with kids around 9 or 10, though, if you want to play full speed! It's a REALLY fun game. Easy and quick. I've bought three sets now! Spend a little extra and get the tin - it's neater than the box.

I've played 7 Wonders with 7 & 8yo's. It's a little rough for that age group. Remember, this is an expansion to the main 7 Wonders game, so if they can play the main game, adding this shouldn't be a problem. The best thing about the game is even adults have a hard time figuring out if they're winning until the end, so even playing with younger players can be fun.

I would think as young as 4 or 5 is age appropriate for this game. It's about recognition of colors and shapes, so if a child is able to distinguish those, it would be fun. Once they start playing, you will be able to tell if they are able to catch on, and if they aren't, it would be best to put up the game until they are able to catch on easier, to save them from being frustrated and not having fun. I've given these as gifts for kids as young as 4 and 5 and they have loved it. As adults playing with kids, naturally, you allow them to "win" a card to encourage play. It is fun with a group of kids with about the same skill level. My 8 year old can beat some adults! I would think as young as 4 or 5 is age appropriate for this game.

Our grandchildren all play with it, and they are ages 2-8. The 8 year old girl only plays with it when playing with little cousins. I think 3-5 is ideal.

Yes, we play it with our 10-year-old daughter. We help her a bit with the strategy, but she enjoys the game.

I have played w/6 year olds. You just have to pick which cards to read to them. It's easy to do during the game or separate them ahead of time. No problem.
