Well, we have it and as far as levels, there are multiple levels from beginner to advanced depending on which card you use.
I was hoping my DS would like it, but actually didn't show much interest in it. I think the opponent is a key part of the experience for him. lol I bought it because he often wants me to play with him but I have a 1 year old and a 5 year old and a DH who doesn't get home from work til 7. So I thought this would be a way for him to get to play even when I can't. But the social interaction is part of what he was wanting, so it didn't work for me. But that doesn't mean it wouldn't work for your kid, of course. It is a neat idea, more like solving chess puzzles than really playing the game. So it is much less dynamic than playing a real game. I should bring it back out and see if he wants to do it now. It's been a while since I tried to introduce it.
I don't know if that helped at all, sorry!
