I bought this for my 5 year old daughter. The commerical is very deceiving. It looks like so much fun until you try to put it together. My husband has quite a lot of experience putting things together and it took him about 35 minutes just to set the game up. By the time we did that my daughter did not want to play with it anymore! At that moment I suddenly remembered my dad having the exact same problems 25 years ago...and he was an engineer!
