Pokemon Master Trainer Board Game
By A Customer
The Pokemaon Master Trainer Board game is a lot of fun for the Pokemon fanatic. We do not have the electronic Pokemon games. If we did, I suspect that the enjoyment of this board game would be somewhat diminished. Our 7 year old is a Pokemon lover and mastered the rules quickly. He plays at least twice a week and would play more if he could find a willing opponent. The game exercises some basic math skills and requires the use of some minor amounts of logic and strategy. Which brings us to the downside of this game. It usually takes in excess of two hours to play the game. It also has a lot of gamepieces, cards, etc. to get lost. However the game is well made and fairly durable.

Educational, fun, for kids and parents!
By A Customer
This game is complicated to learn, but is alot of fun for kids and adults too. My son is 4 1/2, and it really is great to play the Pokemon battles with him, helps me know what he's talking about, and also the game requires alot of math skills--dice, adding numbers, recognizing both numerals and dice spots--which offers a great educational opportunity. You can also play simplified versions of the game by creating your own "rules" and leaving out certain aspects of the game. Playing with 3-4 people and following all the rules equals about an hour-and-a-half to two hour game...which kept my son's attention! You need to keep track of all the pieces, though, don't let kids carry them around the house, or they will get lost. My son's six year old friend loves it, though her 3 1/2 yr old brother got too frustrated (unable to count, throw the dice, etc. ) The age level on the game says 7+ but if your child is 4+ and knows numbers and how to count, and is familiar with playing games and taking turns, they should do ok. Young ones-- or any kids at first-- may need the parent going over the rules "tutoring" play as it goes along. It's alot of fun, though--and never the same twice.

By A Customer
I played this game with my 6 year old daughter and 9 year old son and we had a great time! Pretty long instructions so make sure your kids are in the right mood to listen before you play. Midway through the game we changed the rules, my kids seemed more interested in collecting the pokemon and cheering for each other and less interested in doing battles with each other. They didn't fight and played for over two hours happily! Recommended for long vacations and cold winter days.
