I told our family to get my kids games as they're getting to the age when games are fun and they're responsible enough to play them on their own. I've played the game Trouble since I was a kid, so I was happy that we got this one. The game is still exactly the same as I remember it and even though I really, really suck at it, my six year old son loves to play it. It helps him learn to count when moving his piece.
