Summary: Kids love this game
Review: My kids have had this software for a couple of years, and they keep going back to it. Of all the computer software I have bought (and there have been many!!) this game has the most lasting power. And the nice thing is that it keeps the interest of both my 8 year old AND my 6 year old.

Summary: Good for younger kids too!
Review: My son is 3 years old and he loves this game. He has learned the names of all the dinosaurs featured in the game and can identify them. The activities are suitable for kids younger than 4 (the minimum age on the box).

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun to play for kids 2-years old and up
Review: My son is only 2, and yet he can play some of the games included in this package, such as the bone-builder. He can't play many of the games yet, which require more skill. Yet, this is one of his favorite computer games, because of the excellent graphics, educational content and the user-friendly interface. Clicking on an animal on the background, brings up a small video-clip with narration, describing the specific animal.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The #1 Xmas present
Review: My son loves the activities in this software. Although some of them are skill building, the fact that its all presented in a dinosaur context makes it extra interestsing for a 4.5 year old. There's also a lot of interesting scientific information.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 3 year old in a body cast
Review: On new years day my son broke his femur and had to be put in a body cast, this game has helped me keep my sanity. I can set him in front of his computer and this game and we both have a good time playing it. It teaches him all about Dinosaurs and he says now he wants to be a Paleontologist when he grows up!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Not compatible with Windows Me, 2000, or XP
Review: Our 4-year old daughter really likes this game. It is not violent (except for the opening scene of a T-Rex knocking down rocks). The games are cute and enjoyable.

Unfortunately, the software is not compatible with newer operating systems such as Windows Me, 2000, or XP. The sound cuts in and out or stops completely and there is no way to fix it. (Technical support will tell you that the operating systems are unsupported.) Be aware that unless you are still running Windows 95 or 98, you are going to have this problem. You can still play the games--BUT, in order to find the dinosaur eggs you have to listen to verbal clues from Rolf, the guide dinosaur. Therefore, since we can't hear the verbal hints, we have yet to find any eggs.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Durable interest and value for little ones
Review: Our Audrey has been a "Dinosaur Game" fanatic for more than a year. For a four year-old this is unprecedented affection for a computer game. Bone builder is her favorite but she also loves Scrambled Eggs. The dinosaurs are just scary enough to maintain attention without freaking her out and she is beginning to enjoy the animated videos more. Many so-called fun learning software is neither fun nor educational. Dinosaur Adventure is both. This is one of the best gifts Audrey has ever received.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kids love dinosaur 3D adventure
Review: The kids adored this program, they played it over and over and have not tired of it yet. The kids have enjoyed finding the eggs and the excitement of hatching the eggs and trying to guess which one they have found. The games included are suited to a wide age range with games the three year old can accomplish without adult help to games that challenge an adult. The games come in a variety with puzzle games, an arcade type and build a dinosaur skeleton. The 3d world is well done and fun to move around in. Especially flying between the three sections of the world. The children enjoyed the short dinosaur movies. The only fault is that some of the dinosaur information seems a little out of date. This is a game I would recommend to anyone looking for a quality game that the children of all ages will enjoy and learn from.
