I am very happy with this game. It took him a little while to figure out how to get the game cards, but now is able to get them once he masters the skills. My six year old is a math wiz. He is able to maneuver around the different games pretty easily, but the level of the games is pretty difficult. I really feel like he is having to think and retain the information in order to keep going in the game. This is the first game we have gotten for his Leapster that has challenged him at all. I had read some of the reviews that said it is challenging and decided to give it a try.
Level 1: The addition problems feature serial addition of three single digit numbers. In addition to the basic games I describe, there are bonus rounds:Mr. The problem I think is The Incredibles appeals to a younger audience, maybe preschool level, and the skills it requires are first through third grade level. For example, if the number is 605, pick up blocks 600 and 5, put the 600 in the hundreds place and the 5 in the ones place. Incredible: Solve the addition and multiplication problems. My kids may have tried this out, but they haven't played it much at all.There are 5 characters, each one associated with a different game. Incredible's stretch to reach across a chasm.Summary: The games are not bad and they are very educational. They must be grabbed in the correct order.
Choose the statue with the correct answer and push or pull it into position. Okay, we own a lot of Leapster cartridges. Level 2: The numbers are four digits long.Violet: Violet has to find the part of speech in the maze that completes the sentence. Level 1: This level focuses on finding the nouns. Level 2: The words are about the same length as Level 1, but they are more difficult to spell because they do not follow the basic phonics rules.Dash: Pick up blocks to build the correct number.
Level 1: The words are about five or six letters long. Incredible's strength to move rocks or Mrs. They were too difficult for my kids when I bought the cartridge, still too difficult for my now 5 year old; but The Incredibles is considered too babyish by my 7 year old who could now play the games. Must use some logic, like use Mr. Level 2: The multiplication problems feature single digit multiplication of two single digit numbers.Mrs. An example is "Find the noun that completes the sentence." The sentence is "The ___ throws a robot," and the choices are "ran," "happy," "enemy." Level 2: Find adjectives to complete the sentence.Syndrome: Help navigate the Incredibles family work together to get through the jungle. Each game has two levels.
Level 1: The numbers are three digits long. Grab the letters to spell a word before the door closes. The answers are on the heads of a statue. Incredible: Doors open and close revealing letters to a word.
I tried the activities so I could explain my son how to play (first time I have to do that with a leapster game) and couldnt finish them. The activities seem interesting but when you try to do something, the controls just dont work well. Do not recommend this game. Out of all the games my son has (around 10), this is the worst of them. It is confusing and very difficult to use.
Didn't hold my son's interest like other games. Like the PS2 version, we just weren't real thrilled about the fun-factor of this one.
I agree this one is a bit of a challenge (i.e. One of my kids favorites. Highly recommended. frustrating) in parts, BUT the upside of this is that although we lost it a year ago (after having it for over a year) I have no qualms about buying it again (I've been looking at the stores to no avail), for my now almost 8 year old son knowing he'll still have fun with it and my almost 4 year old daughter knowing she'll love it again just because it's the Incredibles. I'm buying a replacement copy. I agree these things are durable, I sent one through the wash last month and in the morning it was fine.
