3.0 out of 5 stars an arcade game, July 28, 2004

By	audrey (white mtns) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This is an arcade game for youngsters, which means there is really no educational value -- just repetitive action: jumping, throwing and some short term planning about where to jump and when to throw.

IMHO, kids will get to these kind of games soon enough. I'm not in a rush to introduce mindless arcade-style entertainment. That said, the game is stable and installs easily.
