This game has my 9 yr old challenged, occasionally frustrated, but overall very entertained. The professor is annoying, but so far the rest of the game is just great. It's the sort of game that requires thinking that can spill out into the real world--on the first day she played it we ended up talking about motors, generators and energy conversion.

I was looking for a way to teach my 5 1/2 year old son more about chess. I had taught him how the pieces move, but since I never learned anything more than that (such as basic checkmates), I couldn't help. I considered Dinosaur Chess, but it seemed that the emphasis was more on teaching how the pieces move, and my son had mastered that. I was a little wary of buying Fritz and Chesster because it... more

So how do I look at the manual for the serial code if I have to install the game to get the serial code?!?! I have looked for a pdf on the disk or a txt file and... more

This is a great Nancy Drew game, but because it creeped me out a lot, I haven't finished the game yet! I won't spoil any of the exciting and suspenseful parts of the game, but let's just say it was creepy and a little weird. It was still very fun, and I loved to play it. You probably don't want to give this game to a child younger than ten. Trust me!... more
