We gave this to my 10 year old son for Christmas and he and ALL kids up to age 65 loved playing with it. I knew he would have fun with it but I was amazed that his older cousins (ages 25 & 27) and uncles enjoyed them as much. Just be sure and wear the glasses provided (or your own) because the aim of the gun is really off and the darts will hit you in the face before you realize it!
