We got this for our 6-year-old and 3-year-old sons, both love Rescue Heroes and both love CD-ROM games. I agree with the other reviews that state things are very hard to steer and click on effectively. My sons have ample experience with our PC, yet couldn't click on things the way a normal game works--very frustrating for them!
Then, when they finally were able to master it and complete the three levels, they realized that was it. It is a one-time game, with no randomization for repeat play and no educational skills to make repitition valuable. They played it once for the challenge, twice just for the sake of playing it again and then they were done with it. For this price, I would have expected more of this game.
Stick with the toys. FP gets top marks from me for those.

I bought this game for my 5 year old son. I ended up playing for him. The movement of the heroes is very sporadic. I even had a hard time getting the men to slow down so I could get to the hotspots to click on them. They were very jumpy and he was getting very upset because he couldn't click on anything. The game itself was ok. It only took us about 2 hours to finish it. I probably won't buy any more Rescue Heroes on CD Rom.

This game is cool and fun. You can go under water and there are lots of different rescue vehicles to use.

I agree with other reviews that the mouse clicking is very difficult. It's difficult to maneuver the men around. My son tried for a few minutes, became so frustrated, I finished the one mission, but couldn't get him to do any more. Would recommend the I Spy software - ages 6-10, but he loves it! Don't have to know how to read.
