Heh, well, I highly recommend it. It gets more tactical later on. At the beginning, it's pretty much "See bad guy, send all of your minions, wait for it to die." Later on, you have four different types of minions, twelve different spells (Four types, three levels each, where each level actually works differently), and bad guys with tricks. As for your son... Well, depends on how old/mature he is. I mean, it's basically cartoon-style violence, not the least bit realistic... The whole thing is kind of an exaggerated parody of Lord of the Rings: Ten years later, told from the perspective of Sauron. If you want to try it, now's the time... I think it's still on sale, so like $2 for just the first game, or around $7-8 for that plus the expansion pack and the sequel.

"Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is a vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin van-guarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose, so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." -- "V", from V for Vendetta Beat that quote :)
