The kids saw my old Axis and Allies game box today and really wanted to play. So we open it up and then, while my wife distracted the 2 year old, spent nearly 3 hours sorting the pieces, setting up the game, and playing 2 full rounds. This is what the game board looked like at the end.

I helped them understand the rules and how the pieces move, and suggested most of their moves for them. But I was surprised at how long their interest lasted. For a game that’s labeled for “ages 12 and up,” I thought a 7 and 4 year old did pretty well.
