It's a great game! [Posted on 2000-11-28] The cluefinders 6th Grade is about two of the cluefinders have gone missing! So it's the other two's job to find them.They find themselves underground and have ended up in the plant peoples lair.It's the cluefinders job to find their friends and stop the plant people from destroying earth! I recomend this game to kids who are in 5th or to kids who are going into 6th.
Frustrating! [Posted on 2005-08-08] I purchased this for my child directly from her school. Initially, she was enjoying the game. But for one math section "Recipe for Disaster", it employs a "trial and error" method for solving problems, our whole family spent nearly an hour with calculators, and algebraic formulas to try to determine these amounts.
Example: You have to get exactly 1.451 ml of fluid. You have 4 cups measuring: 0.668, 0.577, 0.140, and 0.035. It is up to your child to determine which cups to use. It is all really just trial and error.
In short, this part of the game is only serving to foster my child's thought that she can't "Get" math. It is frustrating for her, and she dreads having to play the game. I am frustrated because it's difficult for her father and I as well. Whatever happened to learning to basics? I am very disappointed in this section of the game.
a bit too hard [Posted on 2006-02-07] this game is very hard, especially the chemistry parts of it. other than that it is another good edition to your cluefinder collection.
