CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Customer Rating:
Summary: Crazy Machines
Comment: My 10 year old grandson enjoys this CD very much. I would buy from you again

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great for all ages
Comment: This game works just fine on Vista and OSX.5
It is fun and engaging.
I've played this with kids as young as 6 and up, and they are mesmerized.
I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the instructions it comes with are horrible, and it took me a while to figure out how to access already-solved puzzles/experiments. The game design itself could have been improved upon with a better interface and by the addition of named accounts.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Awesome!
Comment: Purchased for my grandchildren. Had to try it myself first and found it to be a real brain cell builder. The children (ages 8-10) loved it and quickly became addicted to it. So glad I bought it!

Customer Rating:
Summary: good for kids and adults, make them use common sense
Comment: let your kids play this game all they want, brain needs to exercise and analyse real physical situations, it's fun and cero violence.
just get it! it's good

Customer Rating:
Summary: nice calm thinking game for kids and up
Comment: I agree documentation is limited but my boys 7 and 10, who aren't sophisticated gamers like it. I love it because of the calming music and requirement for thoughtful play. I much prefer it to the addictive high paced fast music action games that are more common. Kids and adults can learn and think through processes with this game. My kids come away much more calm than if they have an action game. And its not violent like too many games now available. It works well on Macs. Modest price. We've had ours for about 2 months and there's always new challenges.
Thanks
