Amazon.com Hands-On Review
Wild Planet's Hyper Dash Extreme is a high-speed game that challenges your brain and your reflexes. This exhilarating game challenges players ages six and older to tag or grab targets based on commands given by the main game unit. The catch: each time you grab a target with the main game unit, another target falls out. The goal is to move through each of the four challenges as quickly as possible to beat your competitors.
Get Ready to Move--Quickly!
Hyper Dash is composed of seven main pieces: a lightweight game unit and six differently-colored plastic cylinders, or targets, with numbers on the sides. The main game unit is an ergonomically-shaped handheld electronic device that features a speaker and control buttons. Each player uses this game unit to tag a target by picking it up.

Hyper Dash Extreme truly lives up to its name. This fun and raucous game features a Hyper Voice that hollers out commands at players to grab (tag) brightly-colored game pieces (targets) as quickly and accurately as possible. Players choose from four different games, ranging in focus from number and color identification to simple arithmetic problems, and then race around the room trying to beat the clock.
 Targets come flying out each time a player makes a tag! View larger. |
The game unit only holds one target at a time, though, which means that each time a player tags one target, another target comes flying out of the game unit. Whether playing alone or in a group, Hyper Dash Extreme is sure to challenge players of all ages and skill levels.
Versatile, Physical Game Designed for a Variety of Ages
The simplicity of Hyper Dash Extreme makes it fun for a wide variety of ages, and the energetic nature of this game promotes a nicely balanced combination of active play and learning. With four pre-programmed games and several Hyper Commands, Hyper Dash Extreme offers a wide variety of game play options that'll keep even the cleverest players wondering what's coming next.
Although this game may be played on a large table, players might find it more fun to spread the game targets out on the floor to allow for more room during lively game play action.

Pros:
- energetic, fast action play like the original
- non-stationary targets make it more challenging
- no small parts
Cons:
- constantly changing targets proves difficult for younger users
- targets roll too much on hard floors
- fewer types of games can be played (compared with the original)
Hyper dash is a great game for kids. Basically you tag the targets as the unit calls them out. Depending on how far apart you put the targets, it can be quite physical. That's why it is one our favorite games in our house. It also has no small or delicate parts so we don't have to worry about the littlest one getting into things and/or messing up the game.
If you are deciding between this and the original Hyper Dash, I would go with the original. Changing the targets throughout the game does add an element of fun, but it limits where and the types of games you can play. For example, having the targets on a table top just isn't possible since the targets go flying off. Also, playing on hardwood floors is a problem since the targets really roll around, go under the sofa, etc.
The changing targets also makes it harder for younger users to play. One thing we like about the original is even our 2 year old can play it.
Still a good game, but I prefer the original.

I gave this gift to a six-year old for Christmas and his mother says he and his friends love it. It is a physical game and the kids work off a lot of energy because they are required to be in motion. The speaker on the game console calls out colors or numbers of the different game pieces and the kids have to pay attention and run and grab the correct piece. It keeps their attention and they love to compete against each other. It is a timed game, so speed counts.

LAME
My 7 year old son got this for Christmas, and got bored with it within 5 minutes. 1 out of 3 times the unit wouldn't recognize the target, so that was irritating. Read more
