Video Game Reviews of Spelling Challenges and More
Customer Review: Not as much of a challenge as I had wanted.
Summary: 3 Stars
This game is not very exciting or challenging. It started me at level 38 because of my age. It's more of a memory game as they flash the word on the screen then say spell it. The guy talks if he had said the word and shown the definition it would have been better. I'm not really a great speller and wanted to really be helped to get better.
The game is just so-so. The sound is like it is playing thru a tin can. The typewriter is not set like a typewriter it is in alphabetical order which slows you down until you get used to it.
For young kids is would be okay but not so great for adults.
Customer Review: Great for kids...

I bought this for my second grader and she loves it. I don't think that adults would like it, but for a kid, it is fabulous. Some of its features include flashing words that the kids then have to spell back, and using short definitions to figure out what to spell. My daughter thinks it is so cool that she earns money for the high scores. It is also helping her on her math place values because she is always running to me to tell me the dollar amount that she won. The game also has a list at the end of each mini-game of the words that the child gets wrong. That is helpful. Each level so far seems to have maybe 30 words and they seem easy to me because they are everyday words, but to her, it ends up being challenging. My favorite mini-game she plays is where she either has to pick out the properly spelled word out of commonly misspelled ones and vice versa. In reference to other reviews I have read in cyber-space, this is probably not a game for adults that can spell ok and the hokeyness would definitely get old. That being said, it is the perfect platform for kids. I only wish I could input her spelling lists from school to play with. Customer Review: It's just alright for adults but better for kids

It's kinda boring for older adults but for kids/teens it's much more fun. It's my least favorite of all the DS games I own.Customer Review: Spelling Challenge

I bought this game for my 7 year old son only to find out its fun for every one. It has 100 levels of spelling challenges. There are also challenges on what is a noun, adjective, verb etc. Its a great game. Customer Review: video games

When I bought this game, it's intended for my child but when I started to play with it, come to find out, it's intended for an older kid. I think it's too advanced for the age of my child but it is worth the challenge!
