Comment: I bought this game for my 6 year old. She played it once and thought that it was "O.K.". I don't believe that she's gone back to it yet

Summary: ClueFinders Toy Store - Russian Blue Witch reviews
Comment: I really like this. If you don't know who the ClueFinders are, click Laptrap (the yellow floating guy) and click on the ClueFinders Club button. I used to think it was a club you join and pay money but no, it's just an information center. You might as well know you need to get 3 of everything, I didn't know that with the spark plugs, I only got one. The spark plugs is the map game witch other reviews complain about. It's not confusing, it's just boring. My favorite game is where you experiment to knock down the toys but I only play it 3 times because I don't want the ClueFinders to have any proof that they went on there adventure. Originally, I'd do 20. Eldon the Elevator takes a really long time on level 4. I really liked the plot and I always make up stories where kids are in stores after they close. Ali Trap is really cute & I wish she was in more games besides Reading Adventures where she dosen't talk and is duplicated. This game is best for high-ish ages who know a lot about multiplication & division. Don't get fooled by the box, the robo dog is actullay good by giving them a smart chip for the unshrinker.

Summary: Seems to be a good game..
Comment: I bought this game as a part of a three pack for Cluefinders. AFterwards I read a review where a person had trouble installing this on an XP system. That was one reason why I bought this game as the box states "Now Featuring XP compatibility.". With a bit of trepidation, I installed it in my computer, and then let my 8 year old have at it. I must say installation on the XP system went fine and after only about 3 hours of play we haven't noticed any strange glitches. This is definitely more of a learning game as opposed to a more fun style of game like Pajama Sam or Spy Fox. I saw that my child had to fill in the blanks of sentences, using words provided, and then arrange those sentences into a sensible paragraph. That provided a bit of frustration, and even the proper arrangement wasn't obvious to me. Still, by randomly moving the sentences around, you can eventually get the answer they are looking for. Same with the math questions. You will get an equation to solve and about 25 different answers are on the screen, and you click on the right one. I have no doubt my child just clicks till she gets the right one if she doesn't know how to do the equation. For less then ten dollars I got 3 Cluefinders games, and with only trying this one game, I am satisfied with the purchase. It seems perfect for this age group of 7-12 years where Reader Rabbit and cutesy games are too easy for them, and they want to feel like they are solving a mystery but also practicing school skills.

Summary: works right, and my daughter likes it
Comment: This is the first "edutainment" software that I've been able to install without a hitch on our Windows 2000 system. We don't give normal accounts "Administrator" or "Power User" privileges, and it worked fine. Kudos to The Learning Company for finally updating their game engines to work cleanly (and securely) on operating systems newer than Windows 3.1!It also properly adjusts and restores screen resolution, and with far more than VGA resolution. My daughter enjoys it, and has played each disk several times. I'll agree with the other review that the map section required some help at first. But she's been able to stretch her mind to understand all aspects of it, which is great.
