4.0 out of 5 stars Great educational set that spread across different age ranges - Parent's first impression October 23, 2009

Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars
I ordered this for Christmas, hoping it would be something my nearly 6 year old could do. There are basically no reviews out there so I felt like I was taking a chance so I thought I would leave a review to help others with their decision.Initially when I played the game through the box I thought there was no way my son could play this. He cannot read more than the basics yet. Judging from the disk on the front, the game appeared to require reading. I decided to investigate further - this is a gift, I didn't want to break into it if I didn't have to but I felt it was necessary. After flipping through the 'disks', there is a huge selection of different topics that span over a large age range. A 5 year old could play this with some help but overall I would think this is more useful for a child who is fairly good at reading. There are a couple of disks that are appropriate for the younger group, like color recognition, shapes, ; some puzzle-like discs but most are geared towards a 3rd or 4th grader.I was surprised to see that the electronic game itself is extremely simple. The game flashes a group of lights that correspond with items on the bottom edge of the disk. Then the light will stop on one of the 8 spots ; you are supposed to input the correct answer. You use a spinning wheel to adjust the number that you find on the main body of the disk. For example, one of the disks has flags on it. It shows the names of 8 countries along the bottom ; the light stops on one, then you look to the flags ; decide which one the lighted country name matches ; then you input the corresponding number. The electronic game itself doesn't say anything more than a few words, it isn't specific to each disk at all, it is just the canned answers each time you answer a question right or wrong. It 'knows' what disc you are using because you input that in in the beginning, again using the spinning wheel on the left of the game but that is as far as the interaction goes - that was a bit of a disappointment.Overall, I think my son will enjoy it but I was originally a bit put-off by the way it worked. I expected the electronic aspect to be more advanced, especially since the game is pretty expensive. I think if I would have known what I know now, I might not have ordered it. But the educational value is very high once my son can play this independently. Although it has 35 disks, they only have 8 'questions' each ; so t will have a limited play-life unless I buy more of the disks that so far I cannot locate more than one set of Mathematic set (for $14 or so).The item does work well ; the disks appear to be fairly sturdy. They pack nicely in the back of the game. It would make for a great travel activity or game as it does allow for up to 2 players.So, to summarize - works well, portable, simple concept but educational game/toy for a target age of probably 7-10. Some limits to play for the little kids ; limited by the amount of available disks. I think my son will enjoy this but I wonder how many other children would play this instead of their Gameboys or Xboxes - it might just be too simple for the typical plugged-in kids

I purchased this for my 7 yr old son, who is having difficulty in school. He enjoys this game very much, and has learned several new things. It also keeps his attention for a good deal of time, even though he has ADHD. I would recommend the game.

It can keep a child busy for some time, before the child loses interest because of the monotony of the Q;A pattern.
