4.0 out of 5 stars excellent first game, December 7, 2000

This review is from: Dragon Tales - Dragon Seek (Video Game)

I just purchased this game for my 31/2 yr old son. He is constantly watching his older brother play video games and wanted one of his own. I feel this is an excellent "first" game choice for preschoolers. Playing hide and seek and listening to the songs makes this very enjoyable. This game is slow paced for young ones who need time in making a decision and also helps in learing how to use the controller. The game allows the children to make choices but not confusing them.... very easy to follow.

My daughter absolutely loves Dragon Tales, so I purchased this game. The graphics are very appealing, and it's nice to have a collection of the songs from the show. But the lack of variety in actions and speech from the characters and the inability to use both children simultaneous caused my 3 year old daughter to hand me the controller after trying for some time to give it credit. The game was easy, even in it's most difficult stage. It's just that it gets monotonous before very long. If I did not have other games for the Playstation, I would believe this was all they could do. But, more effort could have been put into this game, since it is obvious that the disks hold much more memory and the console is capable of processing heavier detail. It really appears that this game was created only because "they made us (the programmers) do it." I really wish programmers would understand that when we buy games for our little ones, and pay good money for them, we want them to educate or stimulate the child's imagination, not stagnate with what the children learned to do when they were only 9 months old and crawling under furniture, finding things we long forgot existed.

5.0 out of 5 stars A 13 Year Old Gamer, October 4, 2001

Dragon Tales: Dragon Seek is a wonderful game for a young child just beginning the Playstation experience! How it teaches them is quite simple, there are certin levels of difficulty for the player to choose 1 for beginnier and 4 for a more advanced player and depending on the difficulty the more freedom they have to explore the playscape, for example at difficulty 1 there is a limited amount of movement, but as you go up in difficulty your freedom of movement increases until you have full movement and the child can explore on his or her own. This is perfect for easing a child into how to use the control so s/he can play others games without getting frustrated by not knowing the controler well. To keep the game interesting for players they have diffrent maps to explore, and the characters hiding hide in different places each time! Also as you search for your friends you will come across Dragonberries which are used at the end of a level to help win a race, but the player must use his or her berries wisely or run out and not win the race. Win or lose though the child is treated to a song from the cartoon. Overall good game. I certinly think so!
