Software Reviews of I Spy School Days (Ages 5-9)
Customer Review: I spy school days! FUN!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Just a great fun game with so many rooms and levels. My 7 year old loves it and it helps in learning to concentrate! I like watching her play. There is a room where she can make her own clues for an I spy game. How fun is that and gives a child the room to invent and create!! Buy!! Customer Review: Deceptive, Not Really Compatible With Windows XP
Summary: 1 Stars
Although this product claims to be XP-compatible, it doesn't really work unless you first change your system settings to run in Windows 98 compatibility mode, and set virtual memory settings back to 200MB. Even though the outer box says Windows XP, copyright dates inside the jewel case make it obvious this is really pre-XP software that has not been updated.
Since we use our computer for other things besides games, the only way my son can play is to wait for 5-10 minutes' worth of switching to an admin user account, changing memory settings, then restarting the computer. When he finishes, we have to put the memory settings back again so we can use the computer for other things.
Customer Review: Great Learning Tool
Summary: 4 Stars
My children love the I-Spy games and they will choose it over almost any other computer game they own. This one is great because it is almost like a scavenger hunt. Kids learn a lot from it, but I still like the original Treasure Hunt better just because it actually seems to have one central theme instead of the randomness of the school days.Customer Review: Scholastic "I SPY" CD-ROM
Summary: 4 Stars
If your child likes the books, he/she will love the CD-ROM. The great thing is that it is interactive so it's not pure sit back entertainment. The only negative thing is once they have mastered all the things, it becomes boring. That's O.K. if the price remains reasonable.Customer Review: I Spy Technical Support
