This is a cute game, but not the best for a 4 year old. My grandson is very intelligent, and also computer savvy, but the clues are very vague to the point of being nonexistent in some cases. It becomes tedious and frustrating for a child this age. We're going to see how easily his 13-year old sister solves the puzzle! I don't think I would buy another Freddi Fish CD.
A little disappointed

After playing the superb Schoolhouse game, my daughter and I were excited to play this one. Unfortunately it was a pretty big disappointment. There are some funny parts, but it lacks the depth of the earlier game. She finished it very quickly and put it away for good.
More fun w/ Freddi- if you're ready

First things first: the suggested age range for all Freddi Fish games (3-8)is very misleading, no matter how smart you think that your 4 y.o. is. Everybody thinks that their very bright 4 y.o. should be able to enjoy the game- and if they don't, it's a problem with the game. The fact is that it takes until 5 / early 6 for both the spatial concepts & (esp.) the level of perserverence needed to get developed enough to enjoy the game. And then they enjoy it hugely. Our girls (now turning 6 & 7) enjoyed this Freddi hugely, as they have the others.

This series is a well thought out entertainment for young children as the outcome and process to the outcome changes.
My son was entertained for hours and hours untangling the puzzles and was entirely enjoying himself doing it and proud to show off his accomplishments
GREAT FUN

I bought this game for our grandson, but after trying it out decided to buy one for myself (I'm almost 60) and I love to play it. Besides which I can guide our grandson when he visits. This game offers such much - problem solving, puzzles, manners and most of all GREAT FUN.

The Freddi Fish series is a very popular one in our household. My son has been playing them since he was 3 (he's now 5) and still eagerly awaits each new installment. I have to disagree with the suggested age for this game--it really has a story that appeals to very young gamers--I simply cannot see an 11 year old being that interested in this little cartoon fish's problems! Anyway, a good series, with some good puzzles to solve the little mysteries in the game.
Great but not the best Freddi Fish

This game is more difficult for kids then the previous Freddi Fish toward the end, and you also miss out on the solving fun of "find the clues, and match what you've found to a fish" That Freddi has done is the first 4 adventures. Although it had changed in the mystery solving at the end, this game was still a wonderful creation, and kids WILL love it. Just make sure you are there with them to make the game REALLY memerable for your child.

This game is really fun! It's just like the other Freddi Fish games, but more mysterious, and with a soundtrack that can be played on your CD player. Freddi Fish and her friend, Luther, have to solve the mystery of a sea monster scaring everyone away from Coral Cove park. It's very absorbing, addicting, and entertaining. It changes every time you play, plus it teaches kids thinking skills. If you liked this game, you'll enjoy other Freddi Fish games, Putt-Putt, Pajama Sam , and SPY Fox games, all by Humongous Entertainment.

My five year old niece and I have spent many hours playing this game. I enjoy it so much, I have to keep insisting that it is my turn! Freddie and Luther meet many characters and have to find and discover how to use the clues. I can't remember where I was or how to get back to and from the many rooms, but my niece can. Once you think you have solved the puzzle, you travel to a completely different world to finish it! And if you play again, some things will have changed! I hope they will soon come out with another game as fun and complex as this one!
Freddi is the best serial CD-Rom for 2-10 year olds

My daughter has been playing the Freddi series since the age of 2 or 3 and has every episode. We both waited patiently for Humongous to release episode 5. Each one of these has topped it's predecessor, which is saying quite a bit as these games have the richest environment of any kid's CD's I've seen. If you were to play Freddi 4 straight through it would take you about 4 hours to solve it. The really nice thing is that these games are slightly different each time you play them, so your child, if she's like mine, will pick these out to play time and time again. I highly recommend the Freddi series. When you run out of Freddi's, check out Humongous' other character, Putt-Putt.
