LeapPad Game: Mind Wars Junior Interactive
© 2004 LeapFrog
A good idea gone bad, this clunky quiz kit contains two buzzers that plug into the cartridge port of any LeapPad. A plastic board then fits over the LeapPad itself. The board has peg holes, and each player is supposed to move his or her marker around the board, but there is no start or finish, like a standard board game, which is confusing. Other problems include not knowing when your category window is open or closed; the LeapPad doesn't always register your position on the board and the method of buzzing in multiple choice or T/F answers is abstract (3 times for the letter C). There is another title called Mind Wars Interactive with similar design.
