Toys and Games Reviews of Perfection
Customer Review: Batteries Not Needed! :)
Summary: 5 Stars
I was shocked to see this required not any batteries! :)
I have gotten the travel size being strapped on cash to spend on games. I got this to enjoy with my 6 year-old, but I can have SOOOOO much fun on my own as well! I just now at 33 years young of age playing this. My child has fun with this, and gets a kick out of the pieces popping out.
You only have THIRTY seconds to complete the puzzle. Be careful, as their are two half circles and S-shapes to appropriately fit. The education comes in where and how to match the shapes, and a couple of them, sizes as well. Also teach how to make most of the time and getting as much done as possible when working on a time-limit. You know, like, when you need for your child to hurry but they don't, and when you need for them to take their time, they don't? It teaches how to work with time and being on the clock.
Other reviewers are correct in saying young children need surpervision so they don't put in their mouths the small pieces and choke as it does cause choking hazzards.
I'm not sure if I would recommend this for being on the road in a moving vehicle, just because the pieces pop out; however, it is awesome for taking it away from home since it requires little space in the suitcase, or perfect for Dr. Office visits....
Customer Review: Popping Good Time!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
A game that I grew up with, and love even still today! A fun game where you must race against the clock to fit all of the pieces into the appropriate shaped slots before the board pops up and spills all of your pieces everywhere. A great game for the school aged child, younger players should be supervised by an adult as the pieces are very small, easy to lose, and even easier to swallow; even so I see no reason why a preschooler age four or five would not enjoy this game with some help from an older sibling or a parent. The flaws in this game are few yet they are definately there...one is for the advanced player there is no way to customize the timer, and once you get the idea of the game it is not hard to master it and try to beat your own personal time. The timer ticks louder as the pop up approaches, and many kids will initially scream when it pops up, all part of the fun I say. The worst part about it however is that the pieces are so easy to lose because they are so small, with the know how however replacement pieces can be purchased directly from the manufacturer. With that in mind, you can be playing Perfection for years to come.Customer Review: They don't make 'em like they used to....
Summary: 3 Stars
I absolutely loved this game as a kid. I figured my kids would love it just as much as I did, so I decided to purchase it. Just got it today; my 3yr. old thinks it's hilarious! I started out by letting her find and match all the shapes. She did very well, and then did it multiple times by herself. Only then did I let her in on the fun! Now she can't wait for her big brother to get home so he can play with her. My only gripe is that it's so flimsily made. I'm concerned because, already, the timer is stopping prematurely, which completely defeats the purpose (not to mention the excitement of screaming when all of the pieces pop out...)- did I mention that I just got it today? Anyway, I'm going to give it a rest and another try tomorrow...If it still doesn't work- I'm going to find a retro model, circa 1979 like my grandmother had. I had to give the fun and educational values of this game 5 stars, but the flimsy construction of this newer model is so disappointing that I can only give it 3 stars overall.Customer Review: One of the classics
Summary: 5 Stars
When our kids got this oldie but goodie this year, it was a struggle for me not to tear it out of their hands to play first! I loved this game as a kid, and now our children are discovering how much fun it is too. I love that it does NOT need batteries, the entire game is lightweight, and the pieces are sturdy *just look out if the dog gets one of them after they pop up! The race to match each piece to its home before the timer runs out and the gameboard jumps up at you is enough to keep old and young alike in stitches. We did a few rounds with everyone at the table this holiday and there wasn't a loser in the bunch, we all cheered each other on! The little ones are loving that they're challenging their coordination skills, and the adults are realizing how easily distracted we can get when the clock is ticking. A perfect family game. Enjoy.Customer Review: Good for kids
Summary: 4 Stars
I think Perfection is a great game for kids to play. The reason I think it's good for them is because it does have some educational value. Of course, it can teach them to put the pegs in the right shaped space, but that's not all that it can teach them. It's one of the best games for a parent to get their kid if they want to teach them how to concentrate or take their time. When I played this game as a kid, I found out that if you rush and try to finish the game in too much of a hurry, you'll never be able to do it. I finally found out that if I took my time and concentrated, I could finish the puzzle just about every time. I recommend anybody who has kids, a niece, etc. to get Perfection for them.
