This was fun for our son for awhile. He eventually got bored of it, but it did provide some entertainment with a little educational value.

For Christmas of 2010 I had gotten my nephew who is 4 a Leapster 2 in green, and 3 games. The cheaper games I could find on Amazon.com so i had the power to get him a few games instead of just one. This was one of the games I had purchased for him. Now, I cant tell you how much he actually gets out of it. He's young. he isn't in school yet, he may not actually understand the games yet... But he does run and hide in the corner with his Leapster 2, and sit there with his game, and little pen, all smart looking, and he plays for hours. He enjoys it. Hours of enjoyment. I just cant tell you how much he is learning from it, since he's still a little young.

I purchased this game hoping that it would be a fun way for my 5 year old son to start reading and spelling. I sat down with him and watched him play the games and most were pretty good and included spelling of 3 letter word with hints of letter sounds. However, I was very disappointed in the storm trooper game. To play, your child needs to shoot storm troopers with the gun. The audio is Luke Skywalker encouraging your child to hurry and shoot the storm trooper and then praising your child after shooting one. I do not allow my son to play any video games that involves killing or injuring other people. I was disappointed that the reviews on this game did not include this detail. I would not have purchased this game had I known.I like Leapster and would recommend the Digging for Dinosaurs and the Animal Genius games. My son loves these games and learns fun facts. I would like to see Leapster create more games like these.

I wanted to get my son a gift that he would like to play as well as serve as an educational tool for him. He is 6 years old. The Leapster arrived on time and in the box, and worked great from the moment we opened it up. I purchased two games with it, and he loves them! He is learning his letters and solving Math problems with it. I am very happy with the product!

We got this for our 4 yr old son. He stays pretty engaged with the various games. The educational aspect is simple - which is appropriate for his age. I'll hear the game say "shoot the letter that makes the mmmmm sound". I'll hear him repeat the phonic sound and figure out the letter so he can shoot it. Overall, I think it's a win-win; fun video game with some educational benefits, too.

My son is 6 years old, first grade and has a slight learning disability so we work extra hard on his sight words and sounding out letters, he doesn't have a whole lot of patience for it. However he loves star wars and he loves nintendo ds. On a whim I decided to buy the leapster and this game for it - hoping that he wouldn't call it a "learning game" and immediately dismiss it. Wowee did I luck out - he loves this game, can't play it enough.The first day he had the game he was frustrated because he didn't know all the words and was running to me asking for help often. I encouraged him to try sounding out the letters and see how he could do. The second day I heard him sounding things out and trying to figure it out on his own. By day three he had mastered the game and was a general - oh was he exited - and mommy even more so - he is consistently reading three and four letter words from the game.Thank you so much leapster - well worth the money spent.

We bought this and for our son for Christmas. He is 6 and a big fan of Star Wars. He is the youngest in his first grade class and has the interest to read but is developmentally a bit behind them. This game makes learning fun, because he has little idea that he is even playing a game. Instead he is helping the rebels defeat the evil empire.It is set around episode 5 or 6. I have played it myself a little bit to see what it was like. They throw in small little games to assist with the main mission. These games build on vocabulary and reading skills without being in your face. Its quite ingenious and a credit to Leap Frog for the way it is subtly done. So much so he has hardly put it down since Christmas.Pros:>> A must for a child that is a fan of Star Wars>> Has improved his reading skills already in just a few days.>> Interesting dialog between characters>> Cartoony look that is faithful to the moviesCons:Overall if you have or the pink one, get this game for your early reader.Thank you for reading my review.

This game is worth it's weight in gold! I got this game for my 5 year old son, and he LOVES it! He enjoys it, because it allows him to feel like he's playing a traditional video game like his Dad's. I love it because he is learning the whole time!He has come leaps and bounds in the last several weeks that he's been playing it. He has learned nearly all letter sounds, and has begun sounding out words on his own!! I am generally not a fan of video games, but this one is fun and educational!
