Hyper Dash

Price: $19.99
Review:

If the kids are feeling restless and need to expend a little energy, how about giving them a game that tests their reflexes and speed of thought? Known as Hyper Dash, this electronic action game for kids aged six and up comes with a "tagger" as well as five "targets". Targets can be arranged in any space (as long as it is not too big), and the hand-held unit calls out a target that the kids have to run to and "tag." Four different levels of play keep the kids running for hours: level one calls out the colors they need to tag, level two throws numbers into the mix, level three adds special commands such as Double Strike, Triple Strike, Reverse, Double Reverse, and the final level features Compu-Strike (math problems that involve addition and subtraction). Played inside or out, Hyper Dash is great for birthday parties, bored kids, siblings looking for a fun diversion or anyone who wants to test their speed, stamina and ability to stop on a dime. No two games are ever the same.
