Product Description

From Children's Software Revue® -- "Subscribe Now!"

Uh oh. A storm of meteorites is hitting the Earth, and wreaking havoc throughout the planet. The activities are fast and fun. Children put out grass fires by aiming a fire hose, snowboard down slopes to find stranded skiers, steer a boat through a maze of flooded movie sets to rescue stranded actors, or climb mountains to rescue stranded hikers. There are plenty of cool gadgets, and three levels of play. The gender-balanced action has themes both boys and girls will relate to. This one is very fun, but light on educational content.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very fun, very positive, October 19, 2001

This review is from: Fisher-Price Rescue Heroes Meteor Madness (CD-ROM)

I played this with my 4 year old son and he thoroughly was mesmerized. The game details 4 emergency situations that result from a meteor shower. You get to rescue animals in the Australian Outback, hikers stranded in a canyon, skiers/hikers caught in an avalanche, and people caught in a movie studio hit by a tidal wave. The graphics are great - better than the cartoon. My son wanted to do it over and over again. The messages are positive because it features rescue workers savings lives of people and animals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great computer game, December 14, 2001

My 4 year old son spent his own birthday money on this and it was not wasted! He loves it and it's a great game. Challenging enough to stay interesting but not too difficult for a 4 year old. By the way, his 12 year old brother likes it too. I love the adventure and the positive messages of the game, although he did drive me nuts in the car singing 'no one gets left behind!' over and over for at least 20 minutes.

My son has been playing this game for about 10 months and it is still his favorite. He just turned 4, and it is hard enough to keep him interested but not so hard that he gets frustrated.
