 Hours of FUNFeb 25, 2008
I love this game. I originally bought it for my 13 year old cousin, but it looked like so much fun I ended up keeping it for myself. I play with it for hours at a time!!!
Fun for everyoneJan 20, 2008
This game is a lot of fun for kids and adults. Compact enough to carry places. Several different games make it fun for hours. My 9 year old daughter enjoys it and has learned lots of new words. She has also struggled with spelling in the past so this helps her in that area also. The touch screen makes it easy although sometimes you have to hit it a couple of times for it to work. My only complaint is that you can not turn the volume off until after the unit is on and already made noise. So if you want to play the game with out waking someone it is almost impossible. A voulme button on the outside would have been smarter. I would buy this again.
 I enjoy this, but it has a glitchJan 18, 2008
I enjoy using this, but it has a glitch, sometimes the letters, when you touch them, refused to stay lite up, it is very frustrating when you are playing with a time constraint. It happens every time I use it for more than one or two games.
Great for Word RecognitionJan 15, 2008
My daughter (11YO) plays this while watching a movie on TV, while we do family reading time, in the car, in the waiting room, etc. Why have a mindless portable game, when you can be improving your vocabulary and hand-eye skills? This is a very inexpensive portable game alternative. The nice thing, too, is that it has different game options and game levels, not just a simple word search. We enjoy it!
Illuminated WORDJan 12, 2008
Illuminated WORD is a nice game, but the touch screen does not function well. I have to touch it several times in order to make a play. Also, not all the letters show up well. Sometimes an "O" looks like a "C", ect... The games are nice, but the overall function is not. It can be frustrating. I would not recommend this product due to functionality.
