This game is not worth a dime!

Seriously people... this game is horrible. It's a series of 8 games that are very simplistic and BORING. Your typical flash game on the web is better. The graphics in-game are not that great. Even my 3 and 5 year old Incredibles Fans were bored after 5 minutes."Daddy Turn it off this isn't fun!" was all I heard. Man, I wasn't expecting much but this is about 2 days of programming effort, Not even a day of 'design' and some cut scenes. Sorely disappointed in this one. If I could return it, I would. AVOID!

What you get: 8 basic 'single task games' such as:
-Help Mr. Incredible get in shape by pressing the spacebar at the right time (boring)

-Help Dash get to the front of the class and put tacks on the teacher's chair. (for one.. do I want my kids doing that? There would have been better things to show)

-Help "mom" catch dishes as they fall. (oooo How EXCITING)

It's too painful to go on. This is pure license abusing crud.

Fun, cute, short

A fine little game for fans of the movie. Game play consists of various arcade-style games using the characters in both super-hero and secret-identity personas. (For example, Dash puts tacks on the teacher's chair as an ordinary boy, then evades velocipods as a superhero-boy.) High scores in these games get you clips from the movie, screensavers, wallpaper, icons, and so on.

It's a cute game with some moments of fun, but it's far too short and with far too little reward for anyone over the age of, say, 12 or so. If you liked the movie, get it, by all means. Just don't expect the kids to still be playing it a week after Christmas.

I have to agree with the other review, I bought it from another store cheaply as the case was damaged and was sorely dissapointed even for the price I paid.

There are a limited number of very basic games that have been crudely fit into the Incredibles theme. Not much thought has gone into this product.

Not a good value

This game is not worth 20 dollars. When I brought it home, I beat it in five minutes, both the medium and easy levels. The problem is that the hard level is too hard, so it would be frustrating for most people and the easy and medium levels are way too easy. I cannot recommend this game and I'm sorry about that because the game looks like a lot of fun and I spent my birthday money on it.

Totally dissapointed

My daughter and I loved The Incredibles movie so we were really looking forward to playing the computer game. What a disappointment! The game is totally frustrating-there are not enough places to save the game, so you have to do the same things over and over again. We got about halfway through and put it aside. Every once in a while we go back to it and decide all over again that it's not worth our time. We've played all three of the Harry Potter games and find them to be much more fun than this was.

hard game to play

The action is too jerky with a mouse turning Incredibles around. I have a new Dell with 128meg video card and I get motion-sickness playing. EA Games have much smoother mouse direction. I tried contacting THQ with no response back.

Very disappointing

I received this game as a gift. My son received the Game Cube version at the same time. I played mine once, he is still playing his a month later. The graphics are so-so. The games themselves are boring. If you have a video game system I recommend that version instead of the pc. It is a totally different game. There are different levels and an ultimate goal. It keeps my 13 year old entertained. If I had had a choice I would have passed on the pc version.

Game doesn't even work!

All I can say is, all you other people out there that actually managed to play the game at all, be thankful you got that out of it. I bought this game for my 7yr. old son, and he can't even play it. I put the CD in, and it just says, "Wrong Disc Inserted." Well, I only have one CD here, so I'm assuming my CD is bad. BestBuy is where I bought the game, and I'm going to make them give me a refund. If they try to pull this "open software, no refund" crap, I'll tell them to load it on one of their display computers and tell them to make it work. If they can't (and they won't, I've already tried it on all 5 of my computers), I'm getting my money back. The customer service for THQ (folks that made the game) is absolutely terrible. I don't think I'm going to buy another one of their games, ever. The number to tech support just rang and rang ... no automated system, no operator - nothing. Their website was terrible, they had an email form that I used, and I still haven't gotten anything from them. My advice: stay away from this game, and stay away from any other game distributed by THQ.

Game won't work

My kids received this as a gift from their grandparents, and it won't play at all. The kids are disappointed, and now I'm in for a headache of trying to get the receipt and see if the store will refund/exchange. From looking on the web, it appears to be a common error.

This game installs fine, but won't play at all. It gives an error message saying "wrong disc inserted" even though it only has one disc, and it's the one that is in the CD-drive.

THQ (the publisher of the game) doesn't even have the thing on the web anymore (yes, there is a link for it on their list of games, but clicking on the link takes you to a different Incredibles title). I sent an e-mail to the company, but I must say I'm not holding my breath for any support (given all the harsh things I've now read on the web about this problem).

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!
