Review on ๐Ÿšซ No Electronic Handheld Game Deal by John Boyce

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Fun for the money Good for handheld games

This handheld game from DOND isn't that bad at $15. Here is my review and I hope that the user will also post a picture of my device on the internet. PROS: I like the on/off button on top, a lot of these handheld games just don't have it, so it's a nice feature. There is an in-game option to turn the sound on or off, even while playing there is no volume control, but since "duct tape" can fix anything, you can always cut a small piece of tape and stick it on the speaker if you wanted sound , but not loud! Or other ways to just cover the speaker with a tissue or something. The game is very addictive and it seems like you always want to play "one more game" before you finally decide that there is something to do in life! (The NBC DOND game you can play online is much faster and visually better) CONS: I really don't like that the numbers are so small, it makes it very difficult to see if you don't have the light at the right angle to have. It would be nice if there was a backlight, it would make night games a lot easier! I wish there was a screen contrast setting especially at the bottom, the selectable case numbers are in 3 or 4 rows, the font size can be 5 or smaller and only very small, they all start with black numbers and when you press the arrow to select one, the case you landed on will flash between black and light gray, once you've selected a case it will turn light gray to indicate you've already selected one. It would be really helpful if they ever make a newer version of this game, it wouldn't be so bad if the game itself was a bit bigger to offer a visually pleasing screen. ------------------------------------------------ -- ------------------ Ah, that's not a big problem, there aren't really any singing noises, the music is a bit cheesy, but overall it's an enjoyable game $15. It's fun, it's really all a gamble and this is my third time playing it, I actually picked the 1,000,000 case! and got a million, after that no frills happened, the scroll bar at the top where he gives you instructions and trading suggestions said something like "SWEET!" One day I stopped in the middle of the game to do something. and the game was waiting for me to pick things and say "come on" in the tent. I think it was impatient! Wouldn't hurt to buy this game, $15 really won't break the bank and it's a fun pastime.
