Toys and Games Reviews of LeapFrog Leapster L-Max? Educational Game: Spider-Man The Case of the Sinister Speller
Customer Review: Not their favorite game
Summary: 3 Stars
We have a lot of Leapster games. My children are 5 and 7 and Spiderman is not my children's favorite game. They play it once in awhile.
The stories operate much like those in the Tag reading system. Touch the words to hear them read. Touch the pictures to hear the characters speak or read the signs. I'm not as impressed with the readings on Spiderman as I am with Tag, because the reading voice is much more monotonous. There is also no way to hear the entire narrative on each page read without touching each and every word. Of course, one advantage of Leapster is that there is some action on each page. However, there is only limited action. Most scenes are frozen, like in a comic book.
In order to play the games, the child must first read the story (or just scroll through it and look for the games). It's not entirely intuitive how to unlock the games. I went through an entire story not knowing I needed to look for and touch the Spiderman face near the narrative to play the games. Once the games are unlocked, the child can go straight to the game and play without rereading the story.
There are two levels of play for each game. It requires that the child understand how to read and spell. Toddlers and preschoolers may be too young to play. I think it's a good game for kindergarteners through second graders.
Below is a brief description of the available games:
*Snapshot: search the city for misspelled signs.
* Darkroom Doodle: unscramble the words in the sign.
* Control Panel: remove a letter from a word and replace it with another letter to make a new word.
* Web Sling: answer questions about the story.
If this is the only game you are getting for your child's Leapster, I wouldn't recommend it. It's not bad as part of the Leapster library, but there are more exciting games available.
