Summary: holy monkey foot this parts hard!
Review: I'm 11 and my sister just got this game for easter she really liked this game until she got to planet "bowlorama", she said that the game was way to hard for her and that she needed help so I said I would help and thought it would be a snap. But when I started playing I realized This game was not rated for the right age group witch was5-8, and I really think that the next time they make another game to rate it differently.But other than that I do think she really enjoyed this game so she raited it a 4.

Review: My three (and a half) year old daughter became interested in this game after we received a promotional CD at our local science museum. She loves this game, and has made great progress playing a couple of times per week over the last few months. I think this game will hold her interest for several years, since there are three levels of difficulty. My only complaint is that in order to complete the game, the player must go through a section that involves a high level of physical control (the characters are running and jumping from object to object in traditional video game style) which younger players might not have. We just skip this part, but it would be nice after all her hard work using her brain (critical thinking skills definitely required) to have the reward at the end without my help. The recommended age is 5-8, so perhaps at those ages this part of the game would be accessible.

Review: This is a wonderful software game for jr. adverturers! My daughter (6 years) could not wait to come home each evening to play. She enjoyed the many characters and discovering their "special powers". After completing the game she instantly started playing it over again. Three cheers for the StarFlyers!

Review: We purchased this when my son was 4 and a half and he was able to immediately enjoy most all of the elements of the game right away with my help. Within a month he could do the game on his own, with only one game where he needed my help. The game is for kids 5-8...however there are a couple of the games I really like and I suspect there are older children who would like them as well! The premise of the game? You have to find the Royal Jewels by going to differnt places in the galaxy. A different game is at each location. Only through thorough exploration do you find ALL of the jewels. There isn't TOO much talking with characters just standing around, (like a lot of other 'educational' software out there, to bore the pants off little ones-and their parents) rather the verbal content is visually matched with attractive and well paced graphics. There are all sorts of games including a fun arcade like game. The games are clever and well designed....meaning they are clear and easy to understand, but that doesn't mean they are too easy to do or too hard. There's enough to challenge as well as reward any child's reasonable efforts. We own both STARFLYER programs and both are excellent programs and at the discounted price a real bargin! You won't be sorry you purchased this and/or the other STARFLYER game. Critical thinking skills, eye hand coordination, listening skills, memory skills, etc. all get a work out while your child is having fun, and isn't that what learning is all about...having fun?
