4.0 out of 5 stars a little dissappointed, February 24, 2006

My daughter loves Blues Clues so I made sure I got this game, she likes it but it is annoying that you have to wait for Joe to finish talking before Blue will move. I also didn't think that the music really sounds like the actual show. Overall it is a pretty good game.

3.0 out of 5 stars ok-could be better, January 11, 2006

Mama (AR) - See all my reviews

my son loves v-smile and Blues Clues. He likes this game but I think it could be better. It seems a bit stiff as far as the animation goes. there are also parts where the narrator talks - but you can not hit enter to fast forward through those parts. that's a problem with a 4 year old who is anxious to start the game. I think this is a good game for kids who have some v-smile experience - and are able to do basic concepts like matching objects, grouping objects in categories (in one game, you have to sort different items like different clocks/watches, school supplies, and bath items and distribute them to the characters. here, my son just guesses because he can't really tell what some of the items are or where they go). For a first game , I would definitely not choose this one but get Lion King, Pooh, or Elmo instead. BUt it is kinda cute and he likes playing with it.

1.0 out of 5 stars VERY Disappointed!, December 27, 2006

My mother just recently purchased the Blues Clues cartrige for the VSmile TV game system for my nearly 3 year old daughter as a Christmas present.
I am so disappointed in the cartridge. We've had vsmile for a year now and my daughters are both familiar with the game system and own several other cartridges for the system (altogether 6 games, I think).
The game is recommended for 3-5 year olds. My 4 year old daughter has trouble with the game. The game is not at all intuitive and the instructions are not very helpful. Joe (the "host") says hello instead of giving instructions or helpful tips most of the time. Blue is difficult to move in the "right" places to do what you need to do in the game. You can only put the game on 2 player in the "learning zone." There are not enough spaces to put in my daughter's whole name in the beginning of the game and, again, no option for 2 player so my other daughter could not participate in that part at all!
Very disappointing.
Not to mention that now, because its opened already, it cannot be returned.
We enjoy all the other games we have for the system, including Winnie the Pooh, Dora and Little Mermaid and the game that came with the vsmile system. I would not recommend Blues Clues to anyone, especially if I like them!
