This game is fun to play, but our 5 year old required help because using the cards was a little confusing for him. Anyone can play their cards at any time and when everyone stopped placing cards on the pile, then you have to follow the cards in reverse order. Sounds confusing, right?

My pet peeve is when toy designers think of a gimmick and then design a game around it. The game should have a good premise first (i.e. Monopoly), and then you add the 'extras'. This game is all gimmick. The rules don't make a whole lot of sense, the game pieces don't stay on the hill and always fall off. My boys liked knocking the marbles ("kryptonite") down the hill, trying to see whose marble would make it down first. The game held no interest whatsoever. If you want a marble run, get a real marble run. If you want a game get a real board game. This is neither.

Bought this for my son last night, instructions are in Spanish only. Spanish may be the second most common language spoken in the US, but not everyone can speak/read it! I'm very annoyed...will have to make up our own rules I guess.
