You start out with 3 games and once you've won all 3 you unlock 3 more games and once you win those 3 games you will unlock the last 3 games. It is a challanging and some what educational (exercising memory skills and a little bit problem sovling) game.

Probably not for kids under 8 - it's a bit above my nephew's head right now.

My nephews, aged 9 and 11, both really enjoy playing this game!

I bought the game expecting a racing game, and I got this little, cheesy, boring game filled with little mini games that use the stylus. I spoke to someone who had the PS2 version, and I think this version (DS) is different from the console version. I have played through the first 3 mini games, and they are really boring. NO Racing. My son was disappointed that you can't even play any of the main characters in the game (yet). There's a boring mini game with "Snot rocket", and a "Simon-like" game where you match the colors blinking on a stop light, and a game where you go fill up gas tanks as fast as you can. Truly not a good game. Pick up Mario Cart if you want a good DS racing game.

Hi, we purchased this game along with the Mario Bros for my 6yrs old Son, for Christmas, and he's dissapointed witht he Cars game, it's really boring for kids...I just read the top review where it says you can unlock more games...we will try that, maybe that makes the purchase worth... I think a movie like cars, so beautiful, could have ended up in a more interesting game, that Kids would really love and want to play...

I purchased this game for my CARS-obsessed 3-year-old son. However, I am very disappointed in it. Instead of being a racing game, it is a game that requires the player to solve "puzzles" and perform certain tasks. The only racing aspect of the game that we have been able to unlock is where Lightning McQueen races Chick Hicks (very boring when it is done over and over) and although this entertains my son the first 3-4 times, he becomes very bored with it. The other tasks on the game are okay but get quite boring too. However, we have since purchased CARS Mater-National and HE LOVES IT! Needless to say, this one hasn't been touched since we purchased Mater-National.

This might be an ok for a kid under 6. But it was pretty boring none the less and a waste of time and money for the rest. It's not an actual race game or anything, it's just a hit the right spot on the screen at the right moments type of thing.

If you think it's going to be one of those racing games where one button is accelerate, ones break, and then steer them around the track, then you will be sorely mistaken. If thats what you are after, try "Cars: Mater-National" as that is what you'd think these games would be, and the type of games found on this version im reviewing here should be side mini/games on the "Cars: Mater-National" version.

My 6 year old loves this game. He has a hard time putting it down. The only downside to the game is sometimes it's hard for him to figure out what he needs to do to advance so I show him what he needs to do. We both really enjoy the game.

I bought this game for my son who is a Cars fan, but I notice that he plays only for 15 minutes when he goes and changes for another game.
If you like a Car o racing game better buy MarioKart

It's not for small children and it's not as fun as the Mater-National game. It's not a racing game at all. It has lots of mini-games that are ok but didn't keep my or my son's attention. I would've been happy to save the money. Even if your child reall loves "Cars," the movie, he/she probably will not care for this whack game. (Yes I said whack)
