My five year old is engrossed in it when we play just him and me. He's much more distracted when he's with older brother (11 y.o.) and both parents.When they have friends over, forget about any kid focusing on the game (any game), even though they beg me to play it with them. Some times I'm tempted to throw the dice at their heads to get their attention, of course I'm usually trying to get their attention to hand me the dice!
I will say the writing style in the prologue didn't work well with my kids, but maybe that's my fault for too often interrupting "Do you know what ... means?" and giving a vocab lesson. Later story bits, especially peppered with character-building dialogue (e.g., banter between Nez and Filch), I'm finding much more appropriate for them.
