My son LOVES Imaginext building sets. He is 9 years old and his friends love them, too. Even the older siblings of these friends. They make up all kinds of stories. They are using their imaginations instead of playing video games. My son begged for this software and I gave in. Within a few hours I regretted my decision. Why did I let Fisher Price come up with his story lines and adventures when he was doing it on his own? That is what is SO great about Imaginext--finally a toy that will cause even older kids to leave the computer and video games. Luckily, I think he found the software to be boring. He played it one evening and that was it. Money wasted, yes. But, I'm glad he's back to creating on his own. I also regret that Imaginext made a video to go with the toy. Let the kids make up the stories!

I purchased this game for my 8-year-old son for his birthday--mainly because he's been getting it from the library on and off for about a year now and I'm getting tired of having to renew it. He loves it that much. He also likes the Pirate Raider; but evidently the Battle Castle has more things you can do. Even my 12-year-old plays it occasionally. Our computer is older and can't run some of the new games, but this one works fine.
