Our Thoughts
I always love a bargain, and you can't ask for a better deal than two video games for one low price. But even more important than the price tag is the fact that the I Spy games aren't loaded with violence. These educational games get kids thinking with their interactive features including riddles, puzzles, and brain teasers. There are over 400 different objects to search out and tons of other games, making for hours of educational fun. The Spooky Mansion was definitely our favorite part and lots of fun for the upcoming Halloween holiday. An adorable skeleton leads you along the way as you embark on scavenger hunts and solve riddles that will definitely get you in the mood for the season. The graphics are colorful and fun, and the games are easy enough for most grade school aged children. If you are looking for a game that will get your kids minds working, I Spy is definitely a great choice.
