What an Adventure [Posted on 2004-01-18]
I purchased Freddi Fish 5 for my 4.5 year old son. He is very proficient with other adventure games - Putt Putt Saves the Zoo and Clifford Thinking Games, as two examples. This game is MUCH more complex and difficult - it's not impossible, but it is extremely time consuming and can be frustrating.

The primary issue I have with the game is there are 40 or more locations within the game that the child must navigate to find and manipulate objects and characters. Unlike some other games, the locations aren't built in a simple hub and spoke configuration. There are locations that branch into yet more branches and there is no electronic map the child can access to jump quickly between far off locations. Going without a map certainly helps the child to develop a sense of direction and memory, but can be tiresome, as a wrong turn can take a while to correct.

All in all, the game is great - but I'm over 30 and relatively intelligent and found solving the puzzle somewhat challenging. This is best left to a slightly older child who does not get frustrated quickly and is able to concentrate for longer periods.

Grandchildren Pleaser [Posted on 2004-03-08]
I was completely amazed at how well my grandchildren (ages, 3, 4 and 5) could navigate around this game. When they come visit, they immediately head for the computer and ask for Freddie Fish. It really challenges their minds and makes them concentrate on finding all the items. Recommend this game for anyone with small children. Guarantee they will have hours of fun.

Great game for young kids [Posted on 2004-04-18]
My four-year-old son's favorite games over the past year, by far, are the Freddi Fish ones. They are challenging, change a bit every time but maintain enough consistency to be easy to navigate, and are lots of fun. The later games (#4 and up?)have a "save" feature, which is awesome. Highly recommend!

Pretty Hard for 4 Year Olds [Posted on 2004-06-11]
I purchased this game based on the many glowing recommendations read here on this website. It is a great game - but I raise issue with the age recommendation of 4-7. My 4 year old cannot play this game on her own - but we have alot of fun playing it together. There are alot of rooms to navigate and she sometimes gets frustrated if we are spinning our wheels - so I will figure out a few steps ahead of where she and I stop so that the next time we play things can move along at a good pace. I guarantee my 9 and 11 year old niece and nephew would find this game engaging and challenging. It's definitely a well designed game - something the whole family can play!

very cute game. [Posted on 2005-02-10]
This game is perfect for a 4 year old. It will keep them entertained for months. Not too hard but hard enough to make kids think and challenge the mind.
