My daughter is 3 1/2 and likes to play on the computer while I am working at mine. There are not many online games that are suitable for her and that allow her to play the game at her pace. Also, she now is quite familiar with 'buffering', the esc key due to the right click menu coming up, and at times she will accidently click on other links or close the IE window, making it a bit frustrating for both of us. This game solves all of this. The game fills the entire screen and it is not possible to switch to another program without hitting a very obvious stop button, which is great to me as my daughter does not end up where she does not want to be. This game has a variety of little games, with a mini clip of the characters explaining what is going on, so it is fun to watch and play. There are three levels of difficulty, and the easy one is just right for her. The game also requires only the use of the mouse so she does not have to figure out the keyboard. There are also little 'bonus' finds for her by clicking on each person, they will say different things, and if she wants to repeat the game, it will at a harder level. Once I helped her thru the game the first time, she was off on her own. She can play it and there is some challenges, but she is able to complete the game on her own which increases the level of fun. The CD does need to be in the drive, which hasn't been a pain yet as I just leave it in, but at least that keeps extra stuff off of the computer. When you do stop the game, either you have to let very long credits roll thru or kill the game. But this is not a big deal. Also, the game is an 'older' game, but it runs fine on my machine with Vista on it, occassionally pausing when its reading from the CD. There have not been any errors when running the game. Both of us are quite pleased with it.
