Product Description

Editorial Review

In a marriage sure to produce geniuses, the popular Turbo Twist series has united with the just as popular Brain Quest series to produce a toy that can make learning both fun and physically exhausting. After you select a mode of play, multiple-choice questions appear on the screen. Then, twist a dial on the end to select an answer and pound a button to enter it. Turbo Twist Brain Quest features four different game modes and an option to add music if you want to make the experience more intense. To expand the game, purchase additional cartridges or pick up a Mind Station Connector to download more questions from the Internet. --John Moe

We were able to put my 5th grader's spelling lists into the toy via the leap frog web site. This is the feature I like best about the toy. You will need the Mind Station to do this and a membership to the never ending learning club ... .So consider buying the package mind station+turbo twist to save money. It is a much better way to study spelling than pen and paper and sheer memorization.

I purchased one for each of my grandchildren and they both love them. So does their mom, especially when they are in the car and quietly playing instead of the usual bickering. I would highly recommend this fun way of learning.

I got this toy only a couple of months ago for my birthday along with the 5th and 6th grade cartridge and find much of its content challenging. Some questions are simple, like 'In what state is the Great Salt Lake located?' but others are more complex, like some English and Social Studies ones. I haven't tried it without the cartridge yet, though. This toy is based on the little Brain Quest flipcards for specific grades. If your child is a fan of those, and likes Turbo Twists, then I think that this is the toy for you!
