Summary: Even adults can legitimately lose to young kids
Comment: I wouldn't have believed it until I actually played it but even adults can be out-strategized by young kids (as young as 4 years old - and I'm still playing with my 8-year-old). The game is designed so that kids can legitimately win the game and outdo you. For added educational value, we let our son do any type of mathematical combination (even involving more than 2 cards) in order to "capture" cards from the middle. I think this is one of the best games out there for kids ages 4 to ?.

Summary: One of my favorites
Comment: I rank Frog Juice among my favorite games ever. It has so much variety built in, and plenty of different options that keep the game interesting. I never get tired of playing it. The rules are not hard to learn, and the game is fun for all ages. Definitely worth buying.

Summary: Gamewright Wins Again!
Comment: First of all, I love Gamewright games, maybe not all of them, but the majority. I own several different ones and this is among my favorites.
I originally bought this to play with my nephew (age 9 when I purchased it) on rainy days. However, I think I as an adult enjoyed it more than he did! I chalk this up to the fact that I had to help him throughout the game (and this kid is very smart) because of all the varied rules.
Which brings me to my only complaint, it's almost like they have packed way too much into one card game. There are 3 ways to build one pile, only 1 way to build the other pile, you can play different cards to have different effects, and you have to collect the right cards to make your potion, etc. The game could have been just as much fun with a few less things and in a few places the rules a bit more detailed.
I recommend the game for kids 10+ not the 8+ as stated on the box.

Summary: Great Game
Comment: I've played this game as an adult, and with groups of fourth and fifth graders. Like most Gamewright games, it's tricky to get the hang of the directions. There are a few different steps, and various cards that mean different things, but once you've figured out what to do, the game is a breeze, and the kids loved it. It's great for reviewing math facts, too.
