it was the Christmas present for my nephew, played there together. There will be 9 years old in 2013, he struggled to understand the value of saving and not to buy everything as soon as the opportunity arises. It is a little too young but we enjoyed it and he won every time. What I regret: the operating instructions is not always clear. It lacks details, such as when it falls on a certain case, it must pay a sum of money but it is not clear whether this sum back to the bank or to the community. It's not much but it is not always accurate. Apart from that, it's fun, well made and we quickly takes the game.
