Repetitive [Posted on 2005-05-27] We own a lot of educational/entertaining software for kids. I bought this hoping it would be a step up from some of the Reader Rabbit and Jumpstart programs for Math. I was disappointed, as it is very repetitive and the "story" doesn't seem to tie together. My daughter played it once or twice, but hasn't been interested since. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. The math is too difficult for the age that would find the games fun.
Mostly Okay [Posted on 2006-02-21] My almost 6 year old enjoyed helping me navigate the puzzles the kids have to face, since he is a big fan of the TV program.
We ran into a problem in the vampire mansion, however. There was not enough information given to sucessfully navigate this screen.
Some of the challenges in this game were over the head of my Kindergartener. He was able to do one or two things by himself.
I would not reccomend paying full retail price for this title. I think that the 8-11 year old crowd that it is recommended for would be bored.
