Misleading, disappointing, irritating waste of time!

The Nemo's Underwater World of Fun game disk enclosed in with the movie DVD, was a big disappointment. My young kids were very excited then very upset. Until I read user reviews here on AMAZON, I thought I had a malfunctioning game rather than a DEMO disk on which only 2 of the 6 activities were accessible, rendering the prizes unwinable and the main games unplayable. And one of the 2 accessible activities, the Tank Gang music maker, seems buggy! Neither the disk, its sleeve, nor the read-me file indicated that it was only a demo, so my exercise in futility began: I installed and reinstalled it. I called the Disney phone number only to find the voice menu options to be misdirected, and at Disney Interactive on-line found no help nor mention of the demo version. FINE DISNEY, so you don't want to give away a free game, but why waste your ad dollars on such a stunt? Guess what, I've not been enticed into buying the real game, just irritated into a resolution to spend NO money on Disney computer games! (It's not your fault THQ (the game designer) we still love you.) I'm Sooooo glad that wonderful PIXAR's contract with Disney is ending!!!

Terrible

I can't believe how bad this video game was. The makers clearly put minimal thought into making it and just wanted to capitalize on the popularity of the movie. The whole game can be finished in one sitting by a four year old. I played with my nephew and kept hoping that it would get better, but it doesn't. The games are all too easy and not that interesting.

Don't waste your money on this one!

had expected more

Loved the movie, and thought that it might be a way for our three year old girl to get more comfortable with using the computer. She was excited too but was bored with it in an hour. The games are simplistic and in some cases poor renderings of things we've seen before, and it is only the fact that the GUI is wearying that they're any challenge. The stones game is the same as things we play with cards. The shark game is just pinball and it is difficult to control. The turtles game is funny but doesn't go anywhere. Daughter had no interest in the school-of-fish game. And even after working on it for a while, my best conclusion is that the music composition game is simply buggy.

Very Disappointing

Our version of Finding Nemo: UWF isn't much FUN. I'm even suspecting that we have a "lemon"--there is no way little children could ever "win" anything with the only 2 items that will work on this CD. The EAC game is OK for a little while, but not when the points or other "wins" don't ever really add up to anything. Then there is the music, which, again can be fun to change around a little, etc. This says "Special Edition" It is very special indeed--and isn't worth the trouble. It was included with the movie--which, of course, the kiddos just love.

terrible

I bought the finding nemo software for my daughter today and I sincerely regret it. It is one of the worst games I have ever purchased. The games dont work. You get nowhere. I would advise everyone considering this game to just save your money. My daughter was excited to get it until we installed it and tryed playing it only to find out it is a lemon.

Can't rate what you can't play!

I got this game with the DVD. I have tried repeatedly to get this to install and play for my 5 yo grandson. It installs OK, even tho it keeps telling me I need to install it's DirectX, when I already have a better version on my computer. After installing, clicking the shortcut gets an error message, so it won't boot up. I have had NO help from Disney CDrom support page. I emailed their customer service, but have received no reply. I tried each and every one of their troubleshooting tips, to no avail. So my grandson is disappointed, and I can only say I'm really glad I didn't buy the game. My computer isn't top-of-the-line state-of-the-art, but it's no slouch, either. I have no trouble getting other games to play on here.

finding nemo is a bust

The game is not fun for kids. The movie was great and the game is a disappointment. Difficult for kids to understand. Just not a lot of fun. It has been sitting on a shelf collecting dust for months.

Thank you reviewer M. I had the exact same problem you did and did the exact same thing you did--I finally did a yahoo! search and found your review. You saved me from spending anymore time on this game. I removed it from my computer. thank you for posting.

I wish I could return it!

This is my opinion on Finding Nemo: Underwater world of fun. I bought this game for my 3 year old son thinking it would be worth the money. I really thought it was going to be as great as the movie. What a dissapoinment!!!! It's too easy and the graphics are awful. My son was very excited at first but got bored quickly. There is not much to do, its very repeatable. This software supposed to be for kids 4-6, but I have no idea how 5 and 6 year old will continue to be interested after passing it once. I know there is another version rated for children 6 and up, but I'm not sure if I want to get it knowing how poor the graphics and sound are. There are much better games out there.
