Toys and Games Reviews of Electronic HyperslideCustomer Review: Good game for the price Summary: 4 Stars
Bought this for the grand kids for Christmas. They seem to enjoy it but don't play for very long at any one time. In all fairness, they received many gifts so they are still trying to divide their time amongst their favorites. Both the 8 year old and the 4 year old figured out the game play pretty quickly. The game has different levels and various difficulty levels so it is a good game for many age levels. The 8 year old plays "one pass" with her brother and likes to play the more difficult levels with an adult. The more difficult levels require memorizing the disk colors being passed in progressively longer sequences. I also like the fact that there are very few parts to this game and that the disks are stored in a compartment inside the main game console itself so they won't be lost. It takes very little space and doesn't require putting everything back in a box. For the price, I highly recommend this game to add variety to your activity or game closet.
Customer Review: fun, but not for everyone Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my 9 yr old nephew for Christmas. He was much more interested in his Xbox, unfortunately, to give it much attention. And he lost one of the disks almost right away, but it does have a handy holding spot. Once we found the disk (took a couple days) I showed him where to keep them, but expect that they will get lost again. At any rate, despite that he did not get into the game, I really liked it and so did my five year old. he stuck to only two games (one that is like simon says and another where it tells you which disk to slide under and you have limited time). The rest of the games were a bit too complicated. And those two games even got to be too hard for him after a bit. So, if you have an slightly older child (maybe 6 and up?), that actually plays with something other than their video game machine and is slightly responsible to not lose pieces, then this is a great buy. Adults will enjoy it too and you can play together.
Customer Review: Fun Toy Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased these as gifts for an 11yo girl and two 12yo boys. The children really enjoyed playing with the Hyper Slide. The great thing about this toy is that it has a one player mode which is great when a child has no one with whom he/she can play. It also has built-in storage for the disks which is nice. There are several game options that can be played on this one toy. That keeps the game from becoming monotonous. The downside to this toy is that there is no "Off" switch, so there are several minutes of it verbally prompting you to "choose a game". It does turn itself off, but it takes awhile. The only alternative is to remove the batteries.
Overall my kids really liked this toy and the various games they can play on it. It is fun by yourself or with a friend, and the price is reasonable. A great gift indeed!
Customer Review: Simple, fun and engaging Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this game last Christmas for my daughter (age 8), and we still play it often... which says a lot. It's great because it doesn't require a lot of set up or extensive time commitment to finish a game, so we can pick up and play for a little while whenever we have a few spare moments - between dinner and sports practice, before bed, etc.
The game challenges reaction time, focus and memory (it's like a modern, more interactive "Simon" game). Even her grandparents will play. Family friends, ages 6 - 13, also love it - both head-to-head and alone; and it keeps the kids occupied for 30-45 minutes at a time. There is an ongoing game among all of us to see who can set the highest individual score in each of the game options.
The price is great and it's definitely worth the money.
Customer Review: great action toy and well made Summary: 5 Stars
I got this for my 9 year old son, and he loves it. The whole family enjoys playing it. I like getting toys for my son that he actually has to do something with it, not just look at or watch. This is well made, and the disks store inside the game so they don't get lost. The game reminds me of Simon, the old game where it calls out colors and you have to touch that color and it gets faster until you mess up. This one calls colors and you send that color to the opposite player then they send the next color. I played it with my son, and my only complaint is that I wish it would keep calling colors until someone messes up, but instead it goes so long and whoever has the fastest time wins. I was able to do it no problem. I am very happy I bought it, and will probably give it as a gift.
