A Fun Thomas Computer Game [Posted on 2004-10-28] My son first played this game at our local public library and immediately fell in love with it. So, when we purchased our own computer, this was one of our first software purchases. The interaction in the game is great and allows the user the chance to do lots of different things, such as loading coal into a truck or connecting gears in the proper sequence to enable a crane to remove a disabled train from the tracks. It encourages critical thinking from the child while providing hours of fun. The graphics are very bright and colorful as well. Installation on my system was smooth and easy, and I haven't had any problems running the game since. I recommend this game very highly. There are many different activities for both boys and girls, and they will surely enjoy the bright and fun Thomas activities.
We love it! [Posted on 2005-11-14] I can't believe this product is getting such bad ratings. Our 3 year old Thomas fan loves this game! We had minimal work at teaching him the navigation of the game, he easily figured it out himself through the verbal directions. It has continued to entertain him for the last two months. As well, it was easily installed on an XP operating system with absolutely no complications.
This is a great game [Posted on 2006-06-29] This is the 3rd time I have purchased this game for my children. I have not had any trouble with the game, it's just that little hands aren't always careful with it. My 6 and 4 year olds have been playing it since they were 4 and 2 both of them love it. I Highly recommend this game.
Good Game, not malware [Posted on 2006-07-22] Another respondent has suggested that "Thomas the Tank Engine: Trouble On The Tracks" destroyed his computer. I seriously doubt this. It sounds like he unknowingly bought a pirated version that had a virus on it; or, more likely, this was just a coincidence of the person installing the Thomas CD, just when a virus was set to detonate.
This game is lovely for young children and, if you can still find it, well worth the its budget price. This is not high-end, 3-D, cutting edge software. It is just some simple games structured around a Thomas theme. I don't think kids over 8 would like it, but for the younger ones, this is a good buy if they are Thomas fans.
In other words, this software is about as exciting as the show. If a kid is young enough to think the show is exciting, then he or she will likely enjoy the game. If the kid thinks the show is dull, he or she will probably think the game is dull too.
Great for kids! [Posted on 2006-11-10] My 4 year old is a Thomas fan & just had to have this. I had my doubts about whether he would be able to play it, but the game is excellent for young children!
It has lovely graphics of all the favourite Thomas characters, great puzzles that have 3 stages of difficulty so it will keep them amused for longer, and of course, a wonderful moral throughout the whole game.
Overall, a definite MUST-HAVE for the kids!
