Best game so far for the leapster explorer Sep 01, 2010
By pepperminta My son just turned 3 and has been playing on his leapster for a few months now. We have a few games and apps, but this is by far his/our favorite game. It's a fun AND funny game (gotta love those penguins) with age appropriate lessons in math in between the levels. I love the leapster b/c he can use his finger or the stylus pen (similar to my iphone - which he's always grabbing for). The math questions are simple and get increasingly difficult as you progress. He can do the easy ones himself...but as they get more difficult he needs my help. He can read and knows his numbers and simple math - so it's fun to sit down w/ him and figure out the problems. Sample math questions are:
-which is the largest group? -which is the smallest group? -which box has 4 wires in it? -which box has more than 1 wire in it? -drag 6 candies into Rico's bowl -what number comes next in the sequences - 6, 7, _, 9
etc...
There are also shapes questions - dragging shapes into a box w/ your finger or the pen - and rotating them to fit - which is pretty neat.
All in all, I think this is the best game leapster has so far. The levels are fun, the math/shapes lessons are great, the spy music is entertaining and not annoying (for me), and your child will be using the d-pad, his finger, the pen etc. and I think it's great for their coordination.

Great Game! Jul 06, 2010
By Bay Area Mom Out of all of the games that we purchased and/or downloaded for my girls' Explorers, this one is definitely their favorite so far. It adjusts the math level nicely between the 1st grade for my older daughter and preschool for my younger one. From my observation so far they seem to be challenged nicely without getting frustrated and they stay interested in this game for quite a while. They are both fans of the Penguins of Madagascar TV show, though, so that may add to their experience while playing the game.

eh... Dec 20, 2010
By Anna Creecy Maybe I'm old school, but we have the leapster explorer because I consider it a preschool game system. I figured it was educational and a good choice for a really young child. I mean it says ages 4-7! I was really surprised on how much fighting was in this specific game. We don't have cable and so I'm not sure what the actual cartoon is like, but it seemed like a good option because it was about animals which my daughter loves. I was just so surprised that within a few seconds into playing it, her penguin was punching another animal. Then I watched as she hit/kicked other animals too. It really bothers me that a game geared towards such young children is like this. We have WII games for preschoolers and NONE of those have fighting in them. I'm just shocked that leapfrog would put something like this out for kids. Ugh.

Fun and educational Dec 26, 2010
By TemporaryTiger My 3-year old son received the leapster recently, as well as two games for it. Wolverine and this game. In addition, the leapster includes a pets game. I was reluctant to get him this game because I had glanced at the cartoon and it was garbage. However, the game was bundled with the system.
After playing the pets game i found that it repeatedly asked to be connected to the internet and disliked it. The wolverine game was extremely violent and the actual educational aspect of it was dilluted by all the slashing.
When I reluctantly put in the Penguins of Madagascar game I was surprised to see how often the educational parts interrupted the penguin as he moved about the level karate-chopping rats. So far, the "violence" seems to be limited to animals which youd want your kids to avoid under normal circumstances (rats, cockroaches, giant crocodiles, ect.)
The game features a variety of puzzles such as counting wires to pick the right amount, which square has the most pins, (1,2,3,_) , and placing blocks where their outlines are. My favorite game so far is one where you are given 4 animal pictures and you tap them as you are given clues (which one lives in the ocean?) . I was surprised at how well my son did these games with little help.
In summary, the violence in this game is slight when compared to other explorer games geared towards boys, or video games for the wii or other consoles. The little karate-chopping that is included is overshadowed by the amount of educational games included. Lastly, the game is great for the younger players who cant add or subtract yet.

Best game yet Jan 07, 2011
By momof3aml We don't have cable, so we've never seen this show. I bought the game based on the reviews and I have not been dissappointed. This game is really fun and funny. It is also very educational, my 5 year old preschooler has already improved his math skills. He's gotten better at addition and can point out the difference between an isosceles and scalene triangle. It also teaches more than/less than. I am very impressedwith this game.
