Picked this up as part of the Humble Australian Fire Relief Bundle (which is doing quite well by the looks of it, but if you haven't picked it up then I encourage you to do so not only to help out the animals, but to try out some great Australian games). Played with the daughter (almost 8 year old).
Finished the second game in the series with my daughter last year.
The first game, unsurprisingly is simpler. It has one or two trade chains and the characters are very clear about what they want.
But the dialogue is very current Australian, to the point where we were saying the next line before it came up. And there are quite a few decent jokes.
There's also a point where Grace breaks in to explain how the view The Detective expressed is not her own and is in fact 100% wrong, which was a nice gag, a little like a Pratchett footnote
But very short run time here, so your mileage may vary. But if you've picked up the bundle, you're only going to waste some of your hard drive and an hour of your time at worst, so why not give it a spin?
