Advantages: The concept is spot on.

Disadvantages: The time it takes to build, then to try and figure out how to play it.

My son is 9 years old and is a massive Lego fan, as well as a massive Harry Potter fan. He saves his money and treats himself when I am being tight. He has almost all Lego you can possibly have for his age group and has now moved on to the next age group but loves it. He is also capable of completing it, however this turned out to be a boring task in building this game. Lego is well known for having simple instructions, which this does have, however it took an hour for the both of us to build, by this point I had had enough, and I most certainly did not want to then sit and play the game, which we could not understand.

The concept is great, and the fun is normally in the building of Lego, but the fact it took an hour then could not play on his own or with friends due to the complexity of the game is certainly frustrating for all. My son also has the patience of a saint and will sit for hours playing Lego and yet he began to complain.

Our family love Lego, but we will not be buying a Lego game again.

Summary: Not worth the money, either buy a board game or lego.
