5 Stars Excellent educational game
My 7 year old son is in love with the Didj my dad got him, and he only had the Jetpack Heroes that was included. So, I decided to add to his repertoire. After all, I know the Leapster wasn’t much without the cartridges and the included games weren’t ever nearly as fun as the ones we bought.

I was a little concerned that the Star Wars game would have the same math concepts he worked on in Jetpack Heroes, but it is different. Instead of addition, subtraction, multiplication, my son gets to work on fractions, place value and geometry.

I tried it myself and there is enough math to keep my son thinking. He gets a to be a jedi with a light saber who goes around a maze of hallways killing bad guys and while trying to survive. He has to stop once in awhile and answer questions like which pie chart shows 1/10 colored in or what number in 693 is in the hundreds place or how many sides does a pentagon have.

For those worried about violence, it is cartoon violence against robots and there is no blood. I’d say it`s about as violent as Tom and Jerry, except the robots die (disappear). That may not be enough for some, but at least you know what you are getting into.

My son loved his Leapster, but he said he’s not going back. Didj is much better. He likes being able to customize the game. I like being able to track his progress and help choose what concepts he’s working on.

5 Stars Fun and Challenging
My 7 yo son wanted to play this game on his DiDJ so he saved and finally bought it. When it arrived, he desperately open the box and inserted the cartridge in the game console. A few minutes later he was enjoying , making noices and having fun. The questions provided in this game were something new for him so this keep him excited and inmerse in the game.

I asked hime the next day about some of the questions the game showed up and he was able to retain knowledge. That’s nice! He’s on advance math class

4 Stars Good game
I got this game with Sonic for my 6 year old’s Didj and although he plays sonic more, he loves this one. This one is a little more difficult so I like that it challenges him more but I don’t like the math question options as much. It still is teaching him so it’s not all bad, just not my favorite. He still likes to play it even after having it for months and I can go on the computer and choose what questions it asks him to try to keep it at his level.

5 Stars THe boy loves it
My son got the Diji for Christmas this year from Santa and he literally didn’t put it down for three days. With the after X-mas sales I got him this game. Along with other parents I worried that it may be too old for him (he is 6) and might be too much of a challenge with the math skills. No, he did just fine. He only asked me for a little bit of help, and thanks to his sister-who got online and spent some of his “credits” he has new challenges and new stuff for all of his games. Way to go Diji, keep the cool games coming and this will stick around for a long time.

3 Stars Leapfrog Didj Custom Learning Game Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Great game. My son loves it! He thinks he has the same game as his older brothers on the PSP! I love the didj and the best thing leapfrog has done is make their games customizable!!! That’s better than gold! Again thank you LeapFrog!

3 Stars Too difficult for younger kids, not interesting for older kids
Okay, we own a lot of Leapster cartridges. My kids may have tried this out, but they haven’t played it much at all.

There are 5 characters, each one associated with a different game. Each game has two levels. In addition to the basic games I describe, there are bonus rounds:

Mr. Incredible: Solve the addition and multiplication problems. The answers are on the heads of a statue. Choose the statue with the correct answer and push or pull it into position. Level 1: The addition problems feature serial addition of three single digit numbers. Level 2: The multiplication problems feature single digit multiplication of two single digit numbers.

Mrs. Incredible: Doors open and close revealing letters to a word. Grab the letters to spell a word before the door closes. They must be grabbed in the correct order. Level 1: The words are about five or six letters long. Level 2: The words are about the same length as Level 1, but they are more difficult to spell because they do not follow the basic phonics rules.

Dash: Pick up blocks to build the correct number. For example, if the number is 605, pick up blocks 600 and 5, put the 600 in the hundreds place and the 5 in the ones place. Level 1: The numbers are three digits long. Level 2: The numbers are four digits long.

Violet: Violet has to find the part of speech in the maze that completes the sentence. Level 1: This level focuses on finding the nouns. An example is “Find the noun that completes the sentence.” The sentence is “The ___ throws a robot,” and the choices are “ran,” “happy,” “enemy.” Level 2: Find adjectives to complete the sentence.

Syndrome: Help navigate the Incredibles family work together to get through the jungle. Must use some logic, like use Mr. Incredible’s strength to move rocks or Mrs. Incredible’s stretch to reach across a chasm.

Summary: The games are not bad and they are very educational. The problem I think is The Incredibles appeals to a younger audience, maybe preschool level, and the skills it requires are first through third grade level. They were too difficult for my kids when I bought the cartridge, still too difficult for my now 5 year old; but The Incredibles is considered too babyish by my 7 year old who could now play the games.

2 Stars Very difficult to play
Out of all the games my son has (around 10), this is the worst of them. It is confusing and very difficult to use. The activities seem interesting but when you try to do something, the controls just dont work well. I tried the activities so I could explain my son how to play (first time I have to do that with a leapster game) and couldnt finish them !!. Do not recommend this game.

5 Stars The Incredibles are incredible!
My [..]son LOVES this game. Many of the other leapster cartridges that are geared for his age are too easy. This one challenges him. He does most of the work himself with occassional help from me. I love the entire Leapster line and this game has not let us down one bit.

3 Stars Not so Great
Like the PS2 version, we just weren’t real thrilled about the fun-factor of this one. Didn’t hold my son’s interest like other games.

5 Stars Glad to find it again!
One of my kids favorites! I’m buying a replacement copy. I agree these things are durable, I sent one through the wash last month and in the morning it was fine. I agree this one is a bit of a challenge (i.e. frustrating) in parts, BUT the upside of this is that although we lost it a year ago (after having it for over a year) I have no qualms about buying it again (I’ve been looking at the stores to no avail), for my now almost 8 year old son knowing he’ll still have fun with it and my almost 4 year old daughter knowing she’ll love it again just because it’s the Incredibles! Highly recommended!

5 Stars Easy to navigate
One of my goals in getting games for our son’s Leapster is that I wouldn’t have to constantly help him. This game is easy to navigate and doesn’t seem to frustrate him. It also has just enough of a challenge, so I don’t think it’s too easy either. I bought this at Wal-Mart for $18 (two weeks ago), so this price it a little steep.

5 Stars leap frog educational game: Kindergarten
Granddaughter loves this game, even her brother who is 3 seems to be able to play well with it.

5 Stars Held her attention!!
We just got the Leapster2 for our 4.5 year old and chose a couple of games – you want to be picky since they are expensive and you don’t want so many as to overwhelm them. This is one of her favorites and she delights in getting points to buy the robot parts. She comes running in the room to shout “I spelled a word” and that she got to complete a robot. She also enjoys the Pet Pals game. This is a great educational toy, but can you will need to limit their time (she would play all day if I let her). The Disney Princess Enchanted Tales game did not hold her attention nearly as long, and she is a princess fanatic.

5 Stars Leapster 2 is a hit!
My 5 year old daughter received the Leaptster 2, a Disney princess game and the kindergarten game for Christmas. The Kindergarten game is by far her favorite. She would play with it for hours if I let her. My 3 year old loves it too. There are many fights over the Leapster and the Kindergarten game.

4 Stars Tech Toybox Price Gouging
Tech Toybox is selling this for $64.99 on Amazon. What a ripoff. They are taking advantage. Amazon seems to let this price gouging happen but will soon figure out that they’re losing customers due to price gouging by their partners. Amazon should list suggested retail price on all items where possible if they care about their customers

5 Stars Ava’s Dora the Explorer Review
I am six years old. I like to play games and look for animals with Dora. I play this game a lot. It is one of my favorite games. My other favorites are Kindergarten and Finding Nemo. I think anybody my age would love this game.

5 Stars nice Leapster addition for Dora fans
This Dora cartridge for the Leapster was one of our daughter’s favorite Christmas presents. Even though she had lost some interest in Dora she still was happy to receive this Leapster game. Our daughter already has the Backyardigans and Princess cartridges. This Leapster cartridge is a nice addition to her rotation of Leapster games and other toys. At 3.5 years some things on the Dora game are still difficult for our little girl but she still enjoys it. If your child likes Dora and has some Leapster experience I’d recommend this game.

5 Stars I guess it depends on the kid
Both my kids got L-Max’s for Christmas. I bought the Dora Game for my daughter (she’s 3) but she wasn’t really into. My son on the other hand (4 years) loves this game. It is definitely his favorite. In all they have Dora, Letter Factory, Disney Princesses and Cars. My son likes Dora and Letter Factory, while my daughter enjoys the other two more.

1 Star Too Boring
We got this for my sister along with the leapster. She loves Dora so we just HAD to get this. My sister’s 6 and maybe she’s growing out of Dora because she tired of this game very quickly and so did I. It was too repetitive and not quite as intersting as the Sonic game we also got. So in comparison, Dora was “borrr-ing” as my sister said when she switched to play another game.

So even if you child loves Dora, don’t buy this game unless your child is under the age of 6. I think even the game was made special for kids still learning about up and down and counting and not for kids in school. It really itsn’t worth it, and not very exciting. Remember to follow the age suggestions when in doubt, that helps. My sister was past the Dora game educational speaking, even if she still loved the character Dora.

5 Stars Great game for a 3 year old.
I bought a used Leapster and this is one of the many games that came with it. After playing all the games I think this is the most suitable for my 3 year old, he is able to play many of the mini games that come in the cartrige without my help, he also likes Dora a lot. Great educational game.

5 Stars Worth the money!!!
My four year old got this for Christmas yesterday and she is hooked! I love it because she doesn’t even realize she is learning. She started out finding the “small pink jellyfish” (for example), which she easily knows. Then she is to find the “number 5 jellyfish,” which is much more challeging for her. She is so into the game she doesn’t even realize she is learning from it!!!

5 Stars Bought this as a gift for a friend’s son
He loved it, so I had to go back to Amazon and pick out some games and a case to keep them all together. He loves them, but he’s a smart kid.

5 Stars Game review
Highly recommend this game. I have a five year old and he loves it. Can play this game all by himself without any help from me.

5 Stars Great game for the Leapster
My daughter received this game and the Leapster for her thrid birthday. I think it is great and she does too. There are short stories that are read aloud. The stories are interactive to some degree in that the characters can be touched (tapped with stylus) and they will add something to the story. As the main story is narrated, the words appear on the screen and are highlighted as they are read. There are several mini-games that are entertaining and educational. For example, one where the player is asked to guide the character through a jellyfish field by bouncing on the large blue jelly fish, or the jelly fish with the number 5, etc. I found it a well put together, colorful, and entertaining game.

5 Stars EVERY PRESCHOOL CHILD NEEDS TO OWN THIS LEAPSTER LMAX SYSTEM!!!
LOVE THE PARENT INTERACTION WHILE MY CHILD IS PLAYING THE GAME… I CAN WATCH ON THE TV AND HELP WHEN HE NEEDS IT…

GREAT PRESCHOOL GAME…

HIGHLY RECOMMEND… SO MUCH SO… ALSO MY ENTIRE CHIDLS PRESCHOOL CLASS NOW OWNS A LEAPSTER LMAX…

BE SURE TO GET THE LMAX AS THEN YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING ON THE TV
