Eh, I don't like my school, it's not very challenging. If I went to a normal school, my grades would probably drop, but as it is... I've got a 4.0 GPA.
Sorry if that sounds like bragging! I'm not trying to!
My 4 & 6 year old daughters play, as do I and I'm well out of highschool/college. My 6 year old actually figured out how to run before I did (we don't have the game manual, thanks R4)
I'm in my first year of college, and I'm not the only person I know RL who plays HM and RF. I played my first HM game when I was 11, and for the past 10 years, the series has produced some of my favourite games of all time. I'm really glad to see that people of all age groups are playing this game. It's neat that there are people discovering RF at the same age that I first discovered HM.
oops i just realized that u were aking for the age range of players not the age range of the characters in the game... OOPS oh well im in middle school and i just started playing it. i think maybe 5th or 6th grade is the minimum because little kids wont get the story and tasks
Um, my students think I'm 40. I'm only 25. I've played ever since my wife bought me a DS, but before that I did play HM on the Nintendo 64. I had luke warm feelings towards it, but RF has completely devoured my lunch hour at work and my commute to and from.
