We just got it as it was 50% off at a book store we were in.  It is very
complex and confusing to play all at once.  We took it one game at a
time(one game per night), which was definitely the way to go with a 7yo and
4yo.  With that age they were nice quick games we could play between dessert
and bed.  But I definitely would not want to try to play all 6 games at
first all at once.  We were able to learn each game separately so when we do
play them all at once it will be easier.

I agree on the artwork.  I haven't been all that excited about any of the
artwork so far.  But then I don't like the book covers either.  I did see
that they are going to release a poster book of movie stills at the end of
July...Now THAT I will buy.  I really like the visuals from the movie so
far.
