Summary: A Hit!
Comment: Works well for adults with disabilities too. A good battleships game, and an animated War card game. Go Fish gets really fishy! Many good games here, not all are card games.
Customer Rating: Summary: The updated version is hilarious!
Comment: These games are great! I bought my copy at Staples with some Christmas money. I have the 2006 version. The things the CG players say are hysterically funny at times. Case in point: the new version has a character named Cap'n Scurvy, a parrot who wears an eyepatch and a pegleg, and says things like "I feel like my ship 'as just been sunk!" when he makes a bad move during a game. Wonderful thing!
Customer Rating: Summary: Wow!
Comment: This is by far the best kid's game CD I have ever found (and I have bought quite a few....) The character's who speak are child friendly, and the scaled back version of creating them is perfect for younger players.
I have always loved Hoyle games on CD, but not all of the games were appropriate for children. This one really is. It has all the games kids love, and is perfect for those times when they really want to play a game with someone, but no one is able at that minute to do so.
The only thing I can't figure out is why you click on the fishbowl to play tick tac toe, instead of Go Fish. Other than that, I can't rate it high enough. I hope Hoyle comes out with a new version so that buyers won't have to depend on resellers to find one. The games are so good that there should be enough for anyone who wants to purchase one.
Customer Rating: Summary: Adults will love it too
Comment: This is a great computer game! My 3 year old loves to play "Battling Ships" and my 5 year olds favorites are "Go Fish" and "Placer Racer". The computer characters are fun to play with (we especially love Marvin) and you can also play against another real person at the computer. They list the appropriate ages for this product at 5-12 but I confess to sneaking a few games of "Chinese Checkers" by myself and enjoying a game of "Bump Em" with the kids. there are different levels of play from easy to very difficult to keep different age levels happy. Gotta have this one!!
Customer Rating: Summary: Wonderful CD
Comment: I have bought a number of Hoyle CDs since they began coming out with this type of game compilation. This one I play with my duaghter who is two but she likes trying to figure out the games. She does like Tic Tac Toe and Crazy eights though she can't understand what she is suposed to do yet.
I liked the characters that play the game with you. I think they are friendly and not too irriating like some of the Hoyle personalities in other games.
I like the format of how you choose the games; where it is like your bedroom and you click on the shelf to pick something. That is how Hoyle used to configure their games till you got so many one one cd. They increased how many games were on the CD each year.
Bump "em is like Aggravation. It is my favorite game; better than Parchisi. I like how they make games seem whimsical like using frogs as Checker pieces; using a goldfish to make Xs and Os for Tic Tac Toe; using little men to climb a treehouse for Snakes and Ladders.
The games are kid friendly but they are classics that grownups can enjoy playing even when the kids aren't around. I think that board games teach kids things like rules, strategy, counting, and cause and effect. So this is a good way of teaching kids how to play and master these games.
