Bob the Builder: Can We Fix It?

Summary: My 4 year old daughter loves it
Review: As someone mentioned before, "Most of the movement through the games is done with the arrows on the keyboard rather than the mouse" but he was reviewing the UK version of the game as he said. The US version allows you to use the mouse as well, which is nice because this game is a perfect introduction to kids and computers! Having different skill levels in the game is a nice touch as well! The girl wont stop playing it!!

Review: Excellent for those young 2-4 year olds. Simple, easy to follow games and instructions that require little mouse knowledge and very little parent assistance. Above 5 year old: slim picking and alittle dull. ... My 4 year old had fun with it and hopefully will play it again. I must say he did plow through the games. There's easy, medium and challenging on all the games. The challenging is a bit too challenging where the likely hood of winning is slimmer and can cause frustration. The easy & medium is good for the under 5 year olds. It's fun, especially for those Bob & wendy fans out there.
I can't honestly say that this game is worth anymore than $10. It's cute, but not more than $10 cute. So, buy it, but buy it on sale

Review: Hard to believe THQ thought this one was ready to ship. A pretty scanty product-- there aren't many games on the disk, and the one that are are short and not much fun to play. My 2 1/2 year old loves both Bob and kids' computer games, but lost interest in this one right off. One gets the feeling the publisher had a deadline to meet, and no time to take a look at the finished product and give it a good clean-up. Even more disjointed and less fun than the same publisher's "SpongeBob SquarePants" game.

Review: I actually WAITED for this to come out...my son wanted it so much...now that it is here i can't say how terribly dissapointing it is...the games are tedious and uneducational and even worse, boring for my 4 year old....i own MANY (ok, WAY too many) cd's - this is one of the worst

Summary: Only game, nothing educational
Review: I bought my 3 y/o son this. I was hoping for educational value. He for fun. Most of the modules ened up being games, racing, building bridges, etc... without teaching anything more than how to manipulate a mouse. But even they are not so exciting. My son, who was so thrilled to get it, was bored in a day. The Blue Clue and Reader Rabbit software products are far better. It's a shame that the BBC let their name be attached to this disappointing product.

Summary: kids loved it
Review: I got this for my 5 year old for Christmas because he loves watching the Bob show on Nickolodeon. He loves playing it as does my eight year old daughter, go figure!

Summary: Could have been better
Review: I got this game for my 2 1/2 year old and he seems to like it. Playing hide and seek with Pilchard or helping Spud scare birds. Not bad for a 2 year old, but I can see him becoming tired of it in about a year. A plus is the low price and the ease of use for my son. I wouldn't suggest this game for anyone over 3, but under 3's should like it.

Review: I'm not sure that I am more disappointed with the product or the sales method. I ordered and received the software only to find that it was advertised to work in Windows ME but it only rated for 95 or 98. Of course, if I try it, I will not be able to return the opened software. It was very difficult to reach customer support with the manufacturer and two people called several times and e-mailed them until we finally spoke to someone who said it wasn't rated for ME or 2000 but they couldn't tell us anything since it was written in Germany.
