Summary: Disappointed
Comment: maybe I didnt research this game enough, I read the "4 games in 1" and thought that was exciting...but each version is a slight variation only of the actual game. Or maybe its since my daughter is 8 and this is a game starting at 6+...I recall a game named Simon when I was a kid - and I think that game was more fun...25 years ago.

Summary: More fun than I thought it would be!
Comment: I saw this game for some time, but just didn't think it would be fun. After seeing all the positive reviews I decided to buy it for my son's birthday. It is a lot of fun. The courses we set up do not span a great distance--so we don't do a lot of running. However, I'm thinking of expanding the distance and perhaps I could lose some weight as well as having fun!

Summary: Great toy - good exercise and educational value
Comment: We have 3 kids of our own. Our oldest is 6 and we have a 4 year old and 1 year old. One weekend when we watched my sister's kids (ages 4 and 1), we bought this game via AmazonFresh. It was great fun for the 4 and 6 year olds. Obviously not appropriate for the 1 year olds.

First you spread out the targets around the room or yard which are different colors and have numbers on them. You select a game (hyper dash, micro dash, micro team dash) and a level (1-3). The first player strikes any target to start. The "wand" then speaks instructions to the player such as "Green!" (strike green target) or "Double Strike Blue" (hit blue target twice) or "CompuStrike 6 minus 3" (meaning strike the target with the number 3 on it) or "Reverse" (strike last target) The player follows the instructions. If they get it wrong, the wand makes a buzzing sound and they have to keep trying. The goal is to get through all the commands in the round in the shortest time possible. AFter everyone has gone, the wand tells you which player won. There can be ties. The winners advance to the next round.

Our 6 year old understood all the commands which includes colors & math & some memory. The math was too advanced for the 4 year olds but they got the colors & memory commands.

We found that if you placed the targets far enough part (outside in the yard or at the park), the game was good exercise as the kids ran around from target to target.

The game is easy to transport - light and compact. It takes 3 AA batteries. Fit well in our stroller.

The kids really got into this game and were quite tired when they finally stopped. It seemed to exercise all the right muscles and kept their attention for at least 1-2 hours

Summary: Great fun--but NOT durable!
Comment: We bought this toy for our kids for Christmas, and they played with it a handful of times and had a blast. I loved how it could be an indoor game or an outdoor one. But the kids just took it out again recently, and it doesn't work anymore. It turns on, but then as soon as you press it to one of the targets, it shuts off. We have replaced the batteries, taken it apart to see if there was something that came loose inside, but nope, nothing has worked to fix it. I think it's destined for the landfill . . . what a disappointment.

Summary: Blast! plus Letdown...
Comment: My kids received this as a present for Christmas and all of them from 4 to 10 loved it! It seemed like the perfect "kid" toy. However, as so many have already said, after about 1 month, it stopped working. New batteries didn't help. I even took it apart to see if a wire came out or some connection fell off, but no luck. What a letdown. I'd feel better if it wasn't such a great toy! Do I dare buy another? Probably not.
