What age is appropriate for these family board games?

Most strategy picks here list ages 8 to 10 and up: Azul is 8+, while Catan and Splendor are 10+. Reflex and party games like Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza and Herd Mentality skew younger and are often described as working for grade-school kids through adults, though some reviewers note the slapping mechanic in Taco Cat can be tricky for very young children.
