5.0 out of 5 stars Super fun for Thomas's Fans, June 30, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Thomas: Trouble on the Tracks (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)

My 3 year old grandson enjoyed this game and was able to do all the activities. The only thing missing was being able to drive Thomas on the railroad with him as the engineer. At the end of the game, it would have been wonderful for the designers of the game to let Thomas ride around railways with the child being able to make stops and choices where to drive the train on the island of Sodor. It is a game he comes back to play with many times.

This review is from: Thomas: Trouble on the Tracks (Jewel Case) (CD-ROM)

This must be a very old release and I suppose, although I haven't looked, that somewhere on the initial annoucement it mentioned that it could only run on WIN97 but what I did see was that it was MS WINDOWS compatable and so I didn't investigate further. Too bad, because it wasn't until I opened the packaging and read the manual that this was found out (it was NOT on the outside of the package). Big disappointment. I don't know who is running WIN97 anymore. Perhaps a bit more information and notice would be helpful when advertising this product?

A must have for children 3-4 years old. When my son turns on the computer, Trouble on the Tracks is the first game he reaches for.
