Dinosaur Adventure 3-D

Rating:
Summary: Very slow
Review: Although the game is cute, there is no way to get past the boring introduction. Which by the way, is not boring the first 3 or 4 times but after that it would be better if one could click through to the game.

Summary: One of our favorites!
Review: Both my just turned 3 year old and his older 6 year old brother love this software. They have learned so much about dinosaurs and the games have been great for developing logical thinking skills. I thought I was buying a game, but I got an educational tool that my kids LOVE!

Summary: Missng some of the old stuff.
Review: I always enjoyed this game. I had the original, (MS-DOS Based Version. It had some great games in it, such as "Save the Dinosaurs!, in which you were given a time limit in which to save 15 Dinosaurs, from 3 different time periods, before a Giant comet hit the earth, making it impossible for dinosaurs ot stay alive. There was also an encyclopedia area, in which you could look up the various dinosaur facts. There was an puzzle where you had to guess which Dino you were looking at. And another one, where you had to work out the answer to the question, "Which reptile is this a part of?", where it showed you a Dinosaur, and some pictures of dinosaur parts. There were many more

A windows 95/98 based version of this game came out, that was exactly the same, exept that it needs Windows, and won't run on MS-DOS. This one that I have now, is more animated than the original, and does not have my favourite puzzles. I preferred the original version, because it gave facts in a more realistic way. Kids aged 4-8 may like the latest version, but the original, though much scarier for that age group, is still the best.

Is there a new game out, that has all the features mentioned above? It doesn't have to be from Knowledge Adventure.

Other than that, it's cool.

Summary: It has captioned for the hearing impaired!!!
Review: I am a mother of a 3 years old hearing boy. I am hearing impaired and I get frustrated trying to follow other software storylines.

But this 3-D Dinosaurs really helps me and my son to share the game together without feeling unhappy.

The software has beautiful special effects and a lot of interesting dinosaurs facts that I didn't know.

My son loves it and he calls me everytime he play the program.

Summary: Our best software purchase to date!
Review: I am constantly looking for quality software for a 3 year old and this is AMAZING! My son can play almost every game on level one and when his 6 year old cousin comes to vist he plays the games on level 3. We love to play the games, collect the crystals and hatch the eggs ... we take turns guessing what kind of baby dino we are going to hatch! There is even a cinima section where your child can just click on pics of Dinosaurs and hear info on them. As if all of this were not enough it revolves around a volcano that erupts lava ... we all know any true dino game should include a volcano!!! One more plus is that a 3 year old can play this with littel or no help from a parent ... I use it when making dinner. I am unable to do this with any of the big name pre-school software. I am so pleased with this purchase! Buy this ... you will love it!

Summary: I gave this 3 stars........
Review: I am not overally impressed witht this one. My 3 1/2 yr old was getting bored with it quick. It seemed to be more of lessons in Dinosaurs than actually games to play and things for him to do. Although he is telling everyone how he got "Dinosaur computer game", I would love to return this one. I think I could have spent the 20 bucks on another more interactive game for him to learn letters, spelling, number skills and other preschool concepts that are important. The Graphics are great, Yes! I bought this b/c of all the 5 star reviews, but overall, I am somewhat let down on the games' actual learning and even fun value.

Summary: This one deserves 6 stars!
Review: I bought this hoping my four year old would like it. He LOVES it! It is full of interesting dinosaur facts with action on every screen. It can hold his interest like nothing has before, and the goal (finding and hatching all the hidden eggs) is not attained in just one sitting, so it gives hime something to work towards.
