The Wizard of Oz is my daughter's favorite movie. She received this game last year, for her fourth birthday, and she loved it from Day One. The questions geared towards children are simple enough for anyone who's seen the movie to answer (they have photos from the movie on the back of the cards, and many questions relate to the pictures). The adult questions can be pretty challenging; it helps to know A LOT about the movie's history and actors, not just the movie itself. Many questions relate to the original Wizard of Oz book, which is quite different from the movie. Reading is required in order to ask other players the questions, so this game can't be played with just one adult and a child, unless that child can read well. Also, the rules state that if someone answers a question correctly, he or she keeps going until they get one wrong, or land on a color they already have (you get an arc of the rainbow for each correct answer in a category). This means if a person knows enough about the movie, they can answer all the questions and practically win, before anyone else even gets a turn. You may want to change the rules at home to allow everyone a chance to answer the questions.

It took a long time to get it but it was worth it, it is a lot of fun. The tin was a little dented but it's unsure if it was in that shape when it was sent or if it was from being tossed around in the mail. But all the pieces were there just as the seller said they would be.

I was happy to get the game quickly but was very disappointed that it was missing things...directions for the game and the dice to go with it. Nothing was ever done about it even after I complained to the original seller. Will not buy from them again.

Received this game in great shape. Great response from seller. Exactly as described I would receive it - in excellent condition! Would do business with them again. Thank you!
