Great concept but not worth it yet - too many problems

Updated: DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU HAVE A FIRE TABLET. After burning upgrades, very few games work and even more game bugs. At the moment I can only play 1 game. It is not worth. I was really looking forward to this for my 3 year old. We don't have a lot of screen activities for her and I, although it would be a great mix of exercise and screen activities. First, the base is large, making it impractical and difficult to store. There is only 1 good case but they are all huge. The iPad looks a lot slimmer and smaller (and as far as I can tell, less buggy). Second, the games. In general, they are underdeveloped, too limited in functionality, and don't advance with difficulties to complicate the task. - Currently Counting Town only reaches 10 so not worth it. It was too easy for my 3 year old, no idea how they think it's suitable for 3-5 year olds. - shape builder - we haven't got this game working yet - I've been back and forth with support and got logs sent and it won't load - costume party - not worth it as a game - we've hardly played it - stories is my favorite game, my daughter. It's a great concept and it's really responsive when you change a character's costumes, but the stories are limited so it feels like we're doing the same stories over and over again. In any case, there's no way to make it harder or advance - ABC is good for practicing letters and sounds, again very basic and can't make it harder - Squiggle Magic is good, it's open-ended so you can create and set characters in these settings. The limitation is actually that there aren't many settings, and your settings are populated with the characters you create. I really wanted to love it but was so disappointed with how limited it is.

Pros
  • Impressive
