 My kids can't stop playing this!!! November 28, 2001

My kids (aged 6,7 and 11 - two boys, one girl) really love this game. They've had it for a while now and they're still at it constantly. I can see what they find so addictive. First you have the cards themselves, which are wide-ranging in terms of content, not to mention very fun to look at (they'll be staring at them long after the game is over!). The questions are well thought out and easy to understand and there's a nice balance of direct, multiple choice and true/false questions. I particularly like the fact that they get the chance to strain their brains and senses, instead of just their eyesight in front of the TV! I highly recommend this game.

If you think you'll get ill playing yet another game of Chuts and Ladders, Monopoly or Candyland, here's a pleasant change of pace - a game ADULTS and CHILDREN can enjoy. I absolutely love this game and so does my son because it is challenging for both of us. If your child has a hard time playing this game solo, it can be played in teams and the questions are just hard enough to keep kids on the ball without being too hard. It is also fast-paced and doesn't drag like so many games can. Best of all, it is good for children from 6 to 12 (and even older) so it will last for some time before the interest wears out.

I have the adult version of this game and so I already knew it was a fun game to play. The kids version appears to be just as popular (if you judge by the reaction of my three). The great thing about this game is that both young and older kids can play together (just give the younger kids a longer time to stare at the image card). The object of the game is to stare at the image and recall as much as possible before time runs out. Correctly answered questions about the image are rewarded by advancing on the gameboard. The images are great fun to look at - comic book covers, teddy bear scenes, cartoons and much more. Not only fun to play, the game tests visual recall and reading skills to boot. Best of all, it managed to keep a rather large gathering of neighborhood kids completely entertained - a great feat! I would definitly make sure this game is a permanent part of your game closet.

My daughter gave this game to a friend as a birthday present, and they ended up playing it at the birthday party. We then picked up a copy for our children and they have been playing with their friends every since. Both my 10 year-old and my 6 year-old can play together, which is a relief. The youngest is given more time to look at the pictures on the cards, and the questions are easy to read and understand. The pictures themselves are very appealing to the kids, and the gameplay is simple to follow (the kids got the hang of it right away). I have played with the kids (under the ýParents version of the rulesý) and the balance works well. There are too few games out there like this.

Stare! Junior is one of the best kids games out there. I was pleased to see my daughter and her friends enthralled for an entire Saturday afternoon. The object is for the kids to stare at the game cards and then answer as many questions as possible listed on the game card about the image correctly. Kids really love this type of challenge. They also all get to participate because the kids must determine by re-examining the image whether the answers given are correct. The images on the game cards are delightful and the kids get a kick out of staring at them. Towards the end of the afternoon, I joined in and the girls only allotted me half the time that they have to stare at the cards. Needless to say, it became a great adult-kid challenge. Innovative and challenging fun!
