We ordered this game to build out our collection with some games more suitable for our children that are getting to be old enough for proper boardgames and it fits very well for this purpose.Gameplay is pretty quick and straightforward. Our 9 year old had no trouble comprehending the rules and seemed to enjoy it. For me the game was a bit too simplistic and probably not what I would choose to play amongst a group of all adults but I would happily break it out to play with kids and enjoy that more than a traditional, “kids-friendly” boardgame.

Purchased as present for my 9 year old, he loves it, we played about 4 times the same day he got it. Very simple game play, but stratagy is an important factor in winning. There are two types of cards, "attack" cards and "creature/enchantment" cards, the attack cards are similar to playing cards with numerical values that have no real meaning other than to form different attack combos. The combos are called "stomp" "strike" and "shout" you use all the same number for one type, numerical order for one type, and all the same color for the third type. The creature cards have 4 values one them, three of the values are more or less their hit points, either stomp, strike, or shout.They are different and some times a shout works best, other times strike or stop. e.g. the "Fire ants" are weak to a stomp attack. The 4th value is called "Victory Points" this is the points you want to get to increase your chance to win.That is where the strategy comes in, you can attack a lot of small points monsters, or the larger points, but that uses more of your attack cards. You have to weigh the pros and cons of this because the games goes until the two dragons are defeated.I’ve managed to win, numerous times because I got two or three high point cards and my son and wife only went after multiple small point cards.Overall very happy with this game, very much recommend. It seems like it can be a good gateway to more advanced battle card games.

My son is 6.5 and has picked this game up quickly. We play it at least 3 times a week as a family. He is learning to strategize, delay an action to get a bigger reward (accumulate more card for more points), and when a gamble is worth it or not. Little brother (3) can even play along with a grown ups help. We enjoy the game as well, which is a requirement when your kid wants to play it daily.

Based on reviews I bought this game b/c my boys love The Sleeping Queens card game by same company. We have had the game about two weeks now and play daily, if not more than that. Don’t be intimidated by the instructions, once you play one time, you’ll get it! My boys are 7 and 9 and this game draws them off the video games. My husband and I have just as much fun playing this game with them. Highly recommend!!

This is a card and dice game for 2-4 people. The rules are very easy to learn as it only took my 5.5 year old about 30 minutes to understand enough to play by herself. Every adult and child that we have played with has loved it and ended up getting their own game set. My daughter would rather play this then be on electronics which is a plus. Games usually last 15-45 minutes and teach children basic math, strategy and risk evaluation. There are several youtube videos how the game is played if you want to see it before buying.

My kids love dragons and magic so the theme of the game is great for them. The game is easy enough for kids to play but also has enough interest and challenge that it is fun for adults as well. It is a great game for my family. My son loved it so much he decided to give it as a birthday gift to a friend.

Love DnD and hoped to introduce my young one to the cherished genre. My 5.5yo dtr has asked to play this nearly every day since xmas and loves killing the dragons and other beasties. After ~one week have already seen her math skills improve-counting up the dice. Also she is starting to understand the strategy involved for finding the best attack based on her foes weakness. Great game.

I bought this primarily to play with my 10 yo daughter, who is big fan of card and board games. We picked up the rules very quickly, and found the game pretty darned addictive. Skull King is another favorite of ours, and Dragonwood moved it into second place for a while. We’ve also shared it with family, and it’s proven a big hit with others too. The artwork on the cards is a lot of fun – look closely for humorous details – and gameplay is straightforward. We’ve spent hours with this game, and look forward to more!

Pretty good cards and dice game. Played it with my 7 year old son and 5 year old daughter. We played with our cards face up so we could help each other out. This doesn’t hurt the strategy much and makes it more collaborative. Everyone had fun and we played it twice. Even as an adult game, I think it would be enjoyable.In the second game we played I didn’t follow the instruction that said to remove X cards from the deck before shuffling. This was a mistake. It took too long before the dragons came out and the game finally ended when we went through the draw deck twice. The game was too long and anticlimactic compared to our first game, when I followed the rules correctly and which ended with 2 dragon captures. My bad. From now on I will stick to the rules.

We bought this for our 6 year old for Christmas. We love family game nights, but we like to play more involved games like Cataan and Ticket to Ride (both favs of our 6 year old). When we bought this, we really though it would be more for the kids. It is most definitely a kids game, but it’s actually enjoyable as an adult. It requires a little bit of strategy and planning, which keeps it more engaging than something like Candy Land or similar preschool games. I won’t say that it’s my favorite, but it is definitely my 6 year old’s new favorite and it’s something we can all enjoy playing as a family (including the 11 year old).
