Bought this for my daughters. They just thought I was the best.

I have three daughters, all five-and-under (Lord help me in about 10 years when they're all teenagers...but that's another story).

Anyway...bought the game for the 5-year-old & 4-year-old who are HUGE PowerPuff Girls fans. I ignored the "Good for 8 years and up" warning when I bought it. VERY GOOD move on my part. We had to "change" the directions just a bit...but the girls love this game.

It's probably the only (non-computer!) game that the two of them actually play on their own. The game is durable. Teaches them a bit (a very little bit) about counting. Youngsters may need a little help in reading some of the cards. Otherwise...pure entertainment.

In this game, the object is to defeat four villains to win. They have all the villians like they do on TV, such as the Rowdy Ruff Boys, Mojo Jojo, Fuzzy Lumpkins, the Princess, and others. You draw cards and whoever has the earliest time on their card goes first. You take 2 at a time. Whoever it shows on the card that's who you move. There are 3 die, one for each Powerpuff girl. However many are on a space that's how many dice you role. Some of them are harder than others and are harder to capture (or defeat). You can also get tiles (the things with the villains on them) that say you can reroll all die. You can not only be one Powerpuff Girl because you draw cards that move each of them. I fthey are defeated, or knocked out, they lie down on the board and you can not play them until the next round, when you draw new cards. Well since I have almost explained the whole game, you can figure the rest out yourself by buying it! It really is fun, especially for people who love the TV series.

This is a great little game. It plays fast and it plays fun.

Each round, every player bids for the sequence in which they will control one or more of the PP Girls and guide them to capture the villains that are raviging the city of Townville. Other players can help or hurt your chances. The first player to successfully defeat four villains wins the game.

If you like the cartoon at all, give this game a shot. YOu won't be sorry.

I absoulutly love the Powerpuff Girls.They are totally cute. My favorite is Bubbles because she is just like me except I,m a little braver than she is! This game is a great time user up and it is very well put together and it is easy to learn how to play. My sister isn't crazy about playing games with me everyday, but I believe everyday since Christmas, we've played everyday and that's awesome! Take my word for it. If you love the Powerpuff girls, you will love the Powerpuff Girls Game.( Also this game is sort of set up like a role playing game. I personally love role playing games!!

We got our 5 year old daughter this game for Christmas and the gift was a hit! We have played it with her countless times and consider it an excellent game for 5 and up. Ignore the recommendations of 8 and older, all her 5 year old friends love this game.

After reading other reviews, I purchased this game for my 3 and 5 year olds -
I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun we had!
The younger one played with Daddy as adults must read and explain the game as it goes along - but the way the game is set up in "rounds" makes it easy and fun.
The times printed on the cards make it educational too, in teaching which time is earlier etc.
Don't overlook this game just because it says for 8 and above!

My daughter, just now 8, and myself played three games in a row right away. I feel this game helps with telling time or at least putting events in sequence. To make it last longer, we did up the amount of villians needed for a win from four to seven because the game was going too quickly. My daughter didn't lose interest until the third game and that is about a miracle. I am sure we will be playing this game for a long time to come.

I work for an after school program with a large Powerpuff Girl fan base. This and the PPG Monopoly games are the 2 most popular with the girls here. We replaced the plastic character pieces with PPG figurines I got on sale at[local store] near my house. Buttercup was broken from her base. Teaches reading and counting at a low level. Popular with grils here 6-11. Great value at [$$$]

My kids got this game for Christmas, we have played it about 50 times in the 2 weeks. It is fun for all ages. My nephews who are 16 and 18 had a lot of fun playing it with my 3 and 7 year olds. I would strongly suggest to get this game.

I picked this up for my 4 year old (yeah it says 8 and up)...However, she can read and is a big PPG fan. The only confusing part for her is figuring out the times on the tops of the cards...but she plays it with mom and dad, and we help her along. We said to ourselves the other night, "this is actually fun!" Most of the kid games are not, in my opinion. This one is fun, especially if you like the Powerpuff Girls along with your kids.
