1.0 out of 5 stars A huge waste of money, June 25, 2000

This review is from: Elmo's Letter Adventure (Game Cartridge)

I bought this game for my three year old son who was just beginning to take an interest in his older brother's SNES and I wanted a game that would be "appropriate" for his age. He has played this game about 4 times and is bored with it already! All you do in this game is lead Elmo through various "worlds" as he collects a certain letter of the alphabet. There is no challenge to the controls whatsoever because Elmo really only moves in one direction on the screen - forward. This game is too simple even for the youngest toddler. I think I'll let my son stick to Spyro the Dragon for now!

1.0 out of 5 stars the most boring game on the planet, March 4, 2000

This video game is so boring that my three year old grunts whenever I suggest that we play "that really fun game." I try to encourage her to play in hopes that it will help her develop letter recognition skills. All it does is sharpen her whining skills. There are a few things I do not like about this game. I do not like that you can not save your progress. Every time you start the game it's always back to square one. Also,the way the controls are set up makes it annoying to quit. Worse of all there is such a long delay between the time you want to quit and when it actually does. The graphics are ok but the game is boring. It is so pathetic. I wished I could get my money back. When I bought this game I almost bought the Elmos number game. I thank my lucky stars that I did not. This game is so horribly boring that I can not even give it a one star rating. You will waste your money. The people who had anything whatsoever to do with this game wasted their time. However, if you like really boring games then this is the game for you.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sesame Street Characters are cute, but what a waste of $$$, April 26, 2000

I'd rate this game at zero stars, but they won't let me. I bought this game for my nephew (age 5). With little help from me, he completed all 3 levels and the bonus stage in about 1 hour. Now he won't touch it. For the money being charged for this game, I expected a lot more than 1 hour of play before he tired of it. Using video games to help children learn is a great idea, but there was a whole lot more they could have done with this game and didn't.
