Can just one player play this game? Is it good for a six year old or is it for older children

I think that a six-year-old can pick up the basic mechanics easily, but is likely to rely heavily on luck to win. I would definitely start them playing using the rules that lack the dragon tiles, which is the same as playing the original Tsuro.

My kids said it only works for 4 players. I believe there are more playing pieces, but only 4 can play at a time.

Depends on the kid. My newly turned 7 year son has played a good 5 times or so with me now and basically gets it, but still needs some help...he still loves it though. You can play it with them, but not expect them to play it with a group of kids - requires supervision and aid. Probably more 9-10.

The game if played as is, would be appropriate for young children through maybe 7 or 8. Older, depending on the developmental age and ability of of the child. I have modified it by making my own cards for the doors (a simple word template and import your own pictures, numbers, categories, etc.) so it works for older kids.

I have a 6 yr old daughter and 4 yr old son. My kids have played together with it many times over the past two years. If your son is into imaginative play he will likely enjoy it as well.

I think you have to have at least two players. I know they will have NPCs to fill in for the rest.....the game is most certainly meant for kids...I play it with my kid sometimes just as a bonding thing....my kid just checked and she says you must have 2 players

My 6 year old can play it. However, an adult needs to play to do all the game mechanics, but both my 6 year old boy, and my friends 6 year old girl play well and have developed good strategies to defeat the villians.

Yes! Our six year old grandson loves playing the game with the family! I think a five year old could be helped to get it easily!

My eight-year-old enjoys this, but it was bought for my five-year-old and the 8-year-old mainly plays with his younger brother. I think the game is still fun for older kids, but it is designed for pre-school kids.

I found that playing solo was the best way to learn the game as the rules are quite extensive. Since I am usually playing with my 6 year old daughter, it is like playing solo in most cases anyway and I still find it entertaining.

The side of the box says "13+" but I'd expect that someone as young as 8 could enjoy this game. As for what age group it's "best for," I can tell you that a very wide range of age groups can throughly enjoy this game. I estimate it would be ideal for 13-30, but I have played it with my parents and they enjoyed it. I would absolutely recommend this game if you are considering getting it.

The game is realy easy. If you start by the basic set, with the starter rules, without the use of special atacks, it may be playable by a 6 years old kid, with the supervision of an adult.

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!

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 think the 3 yr old will be too small and unsteady to play this game. It's a lot of fun but even adults have trouble making the connections of the pieces. Start the 6 yr old slowly without keeping any type of score.

There are lots of ways to play. One child can have tons of fun with it. My 7 year old has enjoyed it from the time he was 4.
