Those are good ages for the game - my 10 year old daughter liked playing it. Our 14 year old son, not as much - he got bored.

Be on the lookout for college kids - and some creepier adults - (not cast members...) that want to teach your kids how to play, then try to talk them into trading cards. Other than that, you'll have fun with them playing this game.

Everyone gets their own deck of cards! I am honestly pretty entertaIned by it :p
But make sure that you get to the portal in the store (I can't think of the name right now, but it's the one with Disney short films playing in the background) before it closes! I made that mistake last time. But that only applies if you get sent to main street first!

its fun, but takes time, and can become addicting. an alternative would be the new agent p experience at epcot that took over the former kim possible one. its just as fun and addicting lol.

On a good day it can take me about 3 and a half hours to finish a whole game, all 9 villains. So yes, it is very time consuming. I would honestly let each one of your children get a deck of cards and key card and then let them play one villain. It shouldn't take any more than an hour depending on when you decide to play.

I would like to play! I'm a huge Disney fan but haven't been an annual pass holder for quite some time & this is all new to me... Where do I go/How do I get these cards when I go to Disney next? :D

Hilarious!
I can picture one of the Disney bloggers in particular doing this right before he goes off to stalk one of the characters.

Just go to the firehouse on Main Street. The CMs will give you a quick lesson on the game and packs of cards and a map.We did it on our last trip,just to give it a try,and ended up really enjoying it. Its fun.

The kids will love it, but the parents will learn to dislike it because of the time it takes. We were there last week and there were lines 6-8 deep at most stations. Most of the players were adults. I guess some collect all the cards and sell them on ebay for a couple hundred bucks. It did get frustrating waiting for a 40 year old male to finish his game so my kids could play.

Now the Agent P game in EPCOT had mostly kids playing and you can get a drink in each country as you watch your kids play. :)

Yes Be VERY AWARE of this...The only place the creeper's will get to them is at Tortuga Tavern..Since it's in a disclosed area and not viewable since the restaurant is normally closed...I saw at least 4 of them with cards on display waiting for the right moment to scam the kids off..

My kids are 11,9 and 7 and when we went last year in September they all really enjoyed playing the game. I had a lot of fun playing the game also.

I agree with scpergj about watching your kids. We had several people try to trade cards with our kids but I made sure I was there witnessing each transaction so that our more valuable cards did not get traded. Since this was our first time trying the game my kids did not understand the value of certain cards as well as others who were more experienced.

I think the game is lots of fun and can't wait to get more cards when we go back this year!
