Customer Reviews


This game would get a roaring 5 stars except that we came across a glitch that prevents my four year old from moving forward in her game. In the Peru section of the game, Dora needs to get past a jumping frog. For some reason, every time we reach that section of the game, the "up" arrow key stops working and we are left with only side to side or down. This results in walking into the frog too many times and having to start over the level. Tried re-inserting game, playing under a different user... same problem every time. I emailed the company to ask if they knew how to resolve the issue. Eventually, they sent a replacement game which I received a few days ago. With this new game, however, when we reach a part where Dora needs to pick up a shovel, once again the keys do not work. In fact, it's as though there is an invisible block surrounding the shovel because you can move up just prior to the shovel and try approaching it from the side only to watch Dora bounce back as though she just walked into something. And if you try approaching the shovel from underneath, it does not allow you to move up to the shovel. I complained about this at a mom's group and sure enough one of the other moms was saying her daughter had the same problem with the shovel. It's really too bad because up to those points, the game is really educational and it would be great to see just how far my daughter could go with it. I have emailed the company once more to say that the replacement game also has glitches and hopefully they can identify if it was one particular batch that has this issue and do something about it.

This game is the only one we have for the explorer but my daughter loves it. She has never played electronic games but she plays this one for at least an hour a day. It has so much learning going on and also has a lot of fun. Some dora games for other systems have been really boring but that isn't the case with this game.
