 Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom Review November 19, 2009
Jodie Modisette (Texas)
My little girl loves Dora and was immediately in love this game! The graphics are good for a childs game compared to other products I reviewed with this one. It is more of a "video game" style game. Its not one that you can just skip around to different activities like most products, this one actually has levels to complete to unlock new things. Overall this is a great game! If your child is into the "video game" style of games this would be a great choice! On the other hand if your child is easily bored with games and likes to skip around to new activities I wouldn't recommend this one.

Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom is a super cute computer games geared towards children of preschool age. The game has really bright, colorful graphics. In this game children will learn about colors, shapes, problem solving, etc.
Kids can choose between easy and hard mode and also between 3 charcters to guide them through the game, Dora gives a great explanation at the beginning of the game and at any time during game play kids can click on a question mark for help. Dora also gives a lot of great reinforcement, like good job, and great! The controls for the game were very well explained and easy to use. I think this game will be great fun as well as educational for preschoolers.

Good game! November 12, 2009
Jaime C. Ramirez
My almost 3 year old loves this game. She is able to navigate mostly by herself. The games are perfect for her level. (On easy level) There are a few where she needs help, but I can already see some improvement and am very happy that she's learning about patterns and counting through a video game. She's been a little frustrated in that it isn't saving her game....so the games she unlocks, she doesn't have access to when she wants to play again. I need to look more closely to see if there's something else I can do, but with my quick glances, there was nothing apparent to me to save it. Overall, I'm very glad to have this game for her. It has great learning games, using a character she loves!

Fun for my 3 year olds! October 30, 2009
Mondeep (Pittsburgh, PA)
My 3 yo twins recently got this game and have been having so much fun with it. I like that it involves keyboard use and also mouse use so they get used to both computer skills. Their accuracy doesn't have to be right on in order for them to accomplish a task, which I like as well. If they go to click on something and the cursor isn't exactly on the item, it will still be counted which I think is important for a child that young just learning to use a mouse. It keeps the frustration level down.
Lastly, this game says it works in XP/Windows Vista/windows 7 however I was able to install it and run it with no problems on Windows 2000.
Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom Review October 28, 2009
Caryn Beck (Arizona)
This game was quick and easy to install. It was easy to navigate and follow. My 3 year old son had an easy time using it, since the controls for the game were simple. He was able to pass several levels in a short time. It kept his attention and wasn't hard to understand. I liked that it had two levels of play (easy and hard) as well as the ability to save up to six profiles. The graphics were similar to the TV show- bright and simple. I liked the memory music section as well as the matching sections best. Fun and easy preschool game.
