My 2 1/2 year old loves the game. He always want to play Dora even though I do have other games for him as well. He does need my help from time to time but mostly I can let him just go and play on his own with very little super vision. I did not like how easy it is for him to accidently click on higher levels and I would have to fix it and put it back down to level 1 again. Overall I really liked this game for my son.
I have to agree with others - too simple

After playing with this for 20 minutes, my 3.5 year old had it figured out and was bored. Not worth the money.

A great educational piece of software. My 2 1/2 year old loves it and can't get enough. I think it can get a bit repetitive, but my daughter loves to play it over and over again. System requirements are a bit much, so I don't recommend this if you have a computer that's more than a couple of years old. I will be buying the Lost City Adventure too. All in all, a big thunbs up for this one!!
Didn't work

I could never get this game to work on my computer, or the other infogrames Dora game (Lost City). It crashes as soon as I launch the game. I have never had trouble with any other game, and my computer meets all of the requirements. The tech support people tried all kinds of things but could not help me. This is very frustrating as my daughter was so excited when I brought the game home she kissed it.
It does work on my work computer so sometimes I'll bring her there and let her play it. The game is OK, nothing really that isn't in the free nickjr.com online version.
Good

I thought it was very good. It should be for older children though.
Waste of money

My 2 year old danced around the chair as i attempted to load this corrupted disc on my computer. I have bought games from the discount bin ...that didn't mess my computer up the way this did. When i finally got it to load, it would freeze up constantly. My 2 year old played it and loved it, but was rightfully irritated by the constant freezing up. We enjoyed the Scholastic games much more.
Please make more Dora Material

I recently bought this for my 3-yr old grandaughter. While she loves Dora, I can see that she gets bored with it already. Not much choice here...Really disappointed in it. I have installed/uninstalled several times, but the sound is horrible. First, you need the volume up to hear the game, but then when the songs come on, the volume is way too loud. Also, the audio skips, freezes, etc. Save your money.

I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY DAUGHTER WHO LOVES DORA BUT WHAT A MISTAKE! SHE HAS OUR OLD COMPUTER WHICH IS NOT A POWERHOUSE, BUT THIS GAME IS A TOTAL MEMORY HOG AND I HAD TO DELETE EVERY OTHER GAME IN THE COMPUTER TO INSTALL IT AND IT STILL WILL NOT WORK WELL, SO, UNLESS YOUR CHILD HAS A TOP OF THE LINE COMPUTER,,,NOT RECOMMENDED!
