Toys and Games Reviews of Plug & Play Tv Games Wild Adventure Mini Golf
Customer Review: Fun game but died within 24 hours
Summary: 1 Stars
My 6 year old son got this for his birthday and it was the first toy he wanted to play with, so once his guests had left we set it up and started playing. It comes with six different themed 9-hole courses, and we played all six once, and they were all fun in their own way with unique obstacles. The lowest score for each course gets saved and that player gets to input his name for future bragging rights.
The design of the toy is unique. You aim by turning a dial on top of the toy, and you can use the club as a long-handled lever so you don't need to bend over between strokes. Once your shot is set up you swing the club over the "golf ball" part of the toy, and how fast you swing determines the on-screen speed of your putt.
Unfortunately my son managed to whack the toy several times during our evening's play, and when we set it up this morning for another round he hit the toy a couple more times. The problem was compounded because while in real golf you watch the ball with the intention of actually hitting it, with this game you feel compelled to watch the on-screen action while swinging above the ball.
Our game this morning ended when the on-screen picture started to flicker and the toy finally froze on the 9th hole; freezing much the same way your Windows computer locks up. Turning the toy off & on resolved the problem but on our next game we got just 4 holes in when the problem returned and the game froze once again.
While I'll acknowledge that the toy did take several good whacks from my son, I'd expect more from a toy that the designers should have anticipated would get hit, and hit frequently.
We'll return this to our local Toy Store and exchange it, perhaps we just got a faulty toy. We'll know within a couple of days if the problem was just that we got a faulty toy, or if M&B dropped the ball on this one.
