5 out of 5 stars I spy school days! FUN!!!   May 12, 2006
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

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!!


1 out of 5 stars Deceptive, Not Really Compatible With Windows XP   April 22, 2006
 20 out of 22 found this review helpful

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.



4 out of 5 stars Great Learning Tool   March 11, 2006
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

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.


4 out of 5 stars Scholastic "I SPY" CD-ROM   February 23, 2006
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.
