3.0 out of 5 stars Ummm a bit confusing and hard for non readers, October 4, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Rayman: Brain Games (Video Game)

well, this game says it was created by teachers but I am not so sure. I'd say the number section is clearer and better in design/graphics, while the letters part is a bit confusing...even to an adult! I sat and watched and starred and starred and could not figure out exactly what you were supposed to jump to/on when it said to rhyme with a word that is spoken...there are a lot of words and it is just confusing. I hate games that are trying to teach a kid but really just frustrate them. My son just turned 6 and mabye that is the problem, but like I said it was confusing to me too in some parts.

Kinda a bummer cause it might be boring for a kid who can already read and knows their numbers well, but too confusing for a kid who this game claims to be trying to teach. not the worst game I've seen but not as good as I'd hoped.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unfortunately Dissapointing, August 13, 2003

I bought this for a 4 year old (who loves numbers) and an 8 year old (excellent reader). Unfortunately, it was a big disappointment. The controls either didn't work or were impossible to figure out. The voice over sounded like a 3rd generation video tape. It was really unfortunate, as my kids like playing the Rayman games.

We like the Jump Start and ClueFinders games, and will probably stick with them after this.

This review is from: Rayman: Brain Games (Video Game)

If only all educational titles looked this good! Brain Games is basically a stripped-down version of the original 2D Rayman, but with math (my worst subject in school) and word levels thrown in. My 5-yr-old brother had a real blast with the handful of practice levels-I couldn't tear him away from it! (Ya think he would get tired after 8 hrs of straight play)! But the actual
"activity" levels had too many simultaneous challenges-like finding the right word while jumping from a ledge and trying to avoid a baddie-that it was too much to handle. Still a worthy purchase.
