I Spy Fantasy

2007-12-15
We own a few I Spy software games and they are fun to play. I Spy Fantasy is just another fantastic game for kids to play. Alone or with their siblings/friends this game challenges young and old. Excellent for foreigners by the way to improve their vocabulary!!!

I SPY FANTASY

2007-11-12
I love all of the "I SPY" books and games that I've read or played with. It is a wonderful way for a grandchild and their grandma to spend some fun time together. My 8 year old grandson gave me his "I SPY Treasure Hunt" because it would not work in his new computer. I just bought "I SPY Fantasy" and gave it to my 4 year old grandson for his birthday and he LOVES it. There are 3 different places for them to search and explore. He just can't get enough of the castle part of the game. His imagination runs wild as he collects the keys to defeat the dragon and rescue the princess! There is also an underwater adventure to find the mermaids' jewels and a space adventure. It's fun for anyone aged 4(depending on the childs' capability in using a computer) till 104!

Short but sweet

I bought this game to use as a reward for my son getting his homework done without problems. He has trouble keeping on task while doing homework, and I thought that a reward of playing a new computer game would help out. It did, and, since he's already familiar with the I Spy books, he picked this game up and was playing it by himself right away. (He's 7.) He loved this game, and homework time became easier as he realized that he only was able to play when he did his homework without becoming distracted or giving his mom and I problems. The only problem is that the game is WAY too short. We only allowed our son to play in 30 minutes sessions, and he was still done with the game in only a few days. He played through the game a couple of more times (the difficulty increases with subsequent play-throughs), but he still grew bored with it after a few times through. Overall, a very fun and interesting game that simply doesn't last long enough. However, the price was low enough that I didn't feel that it wasn't worth it.

A GAME FOR ALL AGES

At age 64 most kids games do not impress me all that much. Here is a game that I even enjoyed, as did most of my grandchildren (the ones that played it). It is done in such a way that young and older kids alike can enjoy it. A true test of how good a game of this type is, is how long a kids sticks with it and gets to the end. This one passes the test with flying colors. And there is no blood and gore, killing, porn, or things like that. It continues there excellent tredition in making these types of games.

Just Discovered These Hidden Objects Games And We Love Them!

Remember the hidden picture puzzels in Highlites For Children magazine? Well these games are full of puzzels like that.

I discovered the free-trial option for the PC game Mystery Case Files Ravenhearst,(at Arcadetown)and my 36 yr. visiting son and I were hooked on this type of game. He took a vacation day to miss work the next day,because I could not get him to go home and get some sleep,he just had to finish the game first!

Since then,I have puchased MCF: Ravenhearst,MCF:Huntsville,Little Shop Of Treasures,and the three top-rated XP compatible I Spy games, I Spy Fantasy,I Spy Spooky Mansion and I Spy Treasure Hunt. My son,my 5 yr. old granddaughter, and I are all having a blast playing these games!

The graphics and sounds are great,and love the little animations of some of the objects when you click on them! The Ryhmes are really cute in the I Spy games and they are also educational,helping with reading,learning new words,identifying new objects,all while having fun.

I highly recommend the I Spy games for children,(and adults who enjoy playing a stress-free game)

This is a great game for kids. My daughter spends hours playing these I Spy computer games. A great price on Amazon!

Great game - wish it lasted longer!

This game is fun for all three of our kids, aged 4 1/2 to 11. They all like looking for the items and completing the puzzles.

There are 3 different areas, each area requiring a number of items to be found (just like the books). After completing the main quest for an area, it can be replayed again but with a harder set of items to find. The third time through is the hardest; then the area 'resets' back to the original level.

The kids took about a week to complete the entire game. We wished there were more complexity levels than 3, or that once you've completed the 3rd complexity level you could choose to play any of them at will.

A lot of fun for all of us, just wish it would've lasted longer!

Fun!

My five and six year old love this game! It sparks their interest in things around them and now we play our own "I Spy" riddles in the car, at dinner or out on walks. I highly recommend it!
