JH5 My First Dragon Adventure Board Game for Kids Ages 5+, Family Game

My son just loves this. It's unique, it has strategy ... it get them to think ahead but is also playable without the strategy. It has fun story arcs and characters. I love that this is a small business ... it's a bit pricey -- but worth it!

While the overall premise of the game is is very simple (all of the rules fit on the front and back of one small sheet), the ability to add difficulty, complexity, and challenge are all there. This is the first game that my now 5 year old has truly needed no assistance in managing her own cards and turns and "strategy." It is a slower and more complex game than the likes of Candyland or Chutes and Ladders, and there is more ebb and flow back and forth amongst players. The "obstacle" penalties very smartly affect all other players, so there isn't really any possibility of ganging up on just one player unfairly. The balance of strategy and chance is a great one for kids in the 5-10 year old range. Very glad that we picked this game up and it will absolutely remain in rotation for game night.

Our family loves this game! Its got great characters, unique move game cards and keeps the whole family entertained. My daughter cant stop asking to play it! I would recommend this game to everyone.

This is a great game for our 7 year old. She enjoys that it can be a casual game with simple rules, or you can make scoring more difficult. Its straightforward design allows for some fun house rules that introduce even more complexity and gives the game more longevity that it may have on its own. If you're creative, this could be a winner for a long time. If you stick to the rules, it has a much shorter lifespan.

Our family loves this game!! It was super easy to learn, and tons of fun for our 3.5 year old and 6 year old boys (and actually pleasant & fun for us as the parents). You have a hand of cards that are your options for movement, and along the way you collect gems that you will use at the end to try to convince the dragon to come help you! A change we’ve made to help it be more “cooperative” is that we’ll stack 2+ of the dragons at the end, and our group needs to convince all of them to come with us (so everyone has a chance to use their gems and roll the dice at the end). For our younger son, we have to help him “strategize” a bit with his movement, but he’s starting to catch on quickly and loves each time we play. Love the artwork, and the box is nice and small so doesn’t take up a ton of space. Would highly recommend, and have already done so to many friends, haha!

My family enjoys playing this game. My kids ask to play almost every day or so. Its easy to learn the rules of the game. My 5 year old can play it with out getting overly frustrated with the length of the game. The board is pretty well made and so are the cards used for moving around the board. If your kids live adventure nights dragons this game is for your family.

We have played this twice since we received it on Sunday 5/26/2024. It is super cute, very easy to learn, and kept my daughter engaged for the most part. She is 5 years old and was able to pick up on how to play pretty quickly. She destroyed us each time. This is sort of like a baby DND game but you only roll the die when you reach the dragon's nest. My daughter kept wanting to roll the die and we had to remind her to wait til we get to the dragon's nest. Seriously have told so many folks about it already and am so happy I bought this game after reading the reviews.

family friendly, fun game for kids, helps with the critical thinking and math even though its simple math
