Do not buy the 1-CD version of this game

I purchased this game from Best Buy for my son, but THQ (game maker) apparently neglected to check if the 1-CD version of the game would work on PC's. It doesn't. There apparently was a 2-CD version that did work.

I installed the game on my son's computer - and got him all excited, only to have a very unhappy child when we went to play the game and the error message "wrong disc inserted" appeared instead of Dash or Violet. I am a computer expert and tried every trick I know to get this to work, to no avail.

This apparently has happened to others (a quick google search will reveal this), and the support at THQ seems to be famously bad. Do yourself a favor and buy something else.

I installed the game with the default settings and got "wrong disc inserted" just like everyone else. Emailed THQ. Still no response a week later.

I wish 0 stars was an option.

I wish I had read the reviews before buying this piece of junk!!! Thq is also a horrible company, they fail to understand the importance of customer service!!!

Waste of Time and Money!

My 7 year old son bought this game with his birthday money and could hardly wait to play it. He's learned a great deal of patience since then. Install went fine but soon we were hit with the now infamous "Wrong disc inserted." message. Our home machine is a bit older so I thought I would try it at work. Being a software test engineer(for the past 10 year), I have access to quite a few machines and know about getting things to work.

!!!THIS GAME WILL NOT RUN ON A SINGLE MACHINE I'VE TRIED IT ON!!!

Forget about getting any help from THQ either. If you manage to actually get the phone system to answer, (Usually it just rings, and rings, and...) all you get is an automated message informing you they are currently upgrading their phone system, so leave a message or go online.
Online won't help either though. The online support form must go to an internet blackhole. I have yet to hear anything back from them.

Garbage

I'm reviewing the startup for the game. It won't run. Says I have the wrong disk in the CD drive. Piece of S only came with one disk!! It's in the garbage now. After reading the above, I'm glad me and my grandson didn't have to suffer through it actually running. LOL

"wrong disc" strikes again

Like so many others, I purchased this for my 6 year old son and when attempting to play it after installation I got the famed, "Wrong disc" error. Wished I'd researched it 1st before buying. Tech help is non-existant, no one answers. What a load of cr-p.

fun for 8 and younger

Action-packed and fun to play, this is a great way to spend time after playing The Incredibles movie game. There is even some educational aspects to this activity game. Highly recommmended.

Mine will not work either

I wish I had read these reviews before I bought the game. I bought mine from Best Buy and it will not work either. It runs through the install, but when you try to play the game you get 'disk not found' error. This was a big disappointment for my 7 year old on Christmas Day!

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!
