This review is from: Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader: Make the Grade (CD-ROM)

This game has it's good and bad features.

The good features are good graphics and a genuine range of questions. It follows the format of the real show and if you choose, you may play it out at the same speed.

The game is easier than the real show because all the questions (except the million dollar) are presented as either true/false or multiple choice.
Needless to say, I've "won" about twenty million dollars so far and I've only had the game about two weeks.

There are also a couple of extra games included that are variations on the central game. These are good too.

Now for the drawbacks.

First, there is no range of avatars. You may choose either a young man or woman and the only customization choices given involve basic colors of clothes; hats and glasses.

Second, although there are places where you may click to speed up the action, there are some places where you have to wait for the Foxworthy character to explain things that you already know. Plus, at the very end-unless you win- you have to sit through your avatar telling the camera that he/she is not smarter than a fifth grader.

Third- some of the sound effects are really irritating after a while- particularly a "WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOO!" you constantly hear from the audience.

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader: Make the Grade (CD-ROM)

This game is great! I found it at my school and found it here on amazon. The graphics are a little strange, but they're fun to make fun of. There are no glitches that make it not work though. It's just that the people say something like "Woo hoo!" then they throw their hands up and jump or something. I find the game hilarious and actually educational. It also has settings for the game like easy, medium, and hard. You get to make your character which is very fun, because they have a lot of choices. All in all, I think that anybody who likes a challenge would really like this game.
