 Interactive game for kids October 16, 2008
1 out of 7 found this review helpful
I bought this game for my nephew, who is almost 5. He is a very active child and I thought this game would help him use up some of his engery. It is a fun game that everyone can play together, even adults play this game with him. He really enjoys using it.
 "Why did it break so soon?" October 11, 2008

That's what my five-year-old wanted to know after this, his new favorite toy, broke after just 4 uses. We are ordering a replacement from Amazon, hoping this durability issue was a fluke. If we can get one that lasts, I'll rate it 5 stars!
a hit with 8 year olds September 29, 2008
Bought this for my son's 8th birthday. He and 2 other 8 year old boys played it and loved it. We've played it inside and out. A nice alternative to video games!
Great fun, it didn't break after 4 months September 26, 2008

For any technical details and minutia, I suggest that you look up Amazon's official review because I could not possibly be as thorough or as knowledgeable.
Now, this is what I can say from my own perspective: we have 2 pre-tween boys, one 5 yr. old girl, 2 dogs and about a dozen kids living in the neighborhood and showing up just about every day in the summer for the pool and the trampoline. We bought this from Amazon back in May and everyone loved it, including the dogs. So, for most of this summer, whenever they decided to play Hyper Dash, we were having the kids running around as directed, the dogs running after the kids and myself, trying to focus on the stuff I was supposed to be studying (for an exam). Based on other reviews, the game can be played indoors as well. We never allowed it but, as the weather turns colder, we may allow them to play in the basement whenever they get together for some fun.
Now, talking about things the kids 'learn'... let's not exaggerate :). Sure, there is a level of the game where the kid has to compute 3-2 quickly but, come on, there's not A LOT to learn. It's mostly physical and that's how the kids play it and it's good this way. They ARE running a lot but do not expect to see better grades in school.
What you do not see in the Amazon official review it's the durability factor. I am pleased to state that, after 4 months and, probably 20-30 hours of play, nothing broke yet. I expect the game to be still unbroken after one year.
Fun, Fun, Fun! Great rainy day activity September 19, 2008
This is a simple but very fun game. You can put the targets close or move them further apart to get moving more. The is a great rainy day game and will keep them happy and busy for at least an hour then they will be ready to chill for a while.
