My 4yr old daughter has 15 games for her leapster, and this is her favorite. It holds her intrest like nothing I've ever seen. She was so excited to gain all her "puzzle power". I even enjoyed playing the level 3 puzzles with her. GET THIS GAME!


I decided to buy it after reading all the reviews. My kids are 8 and 6 and they absolutely love it. My 6 years old needs help from time to time, but that really helps with his logical thinking. I tried playing it a little bit and it's pretty fun!


For Christmas I got my son the Leapster and 4 games. Thomas the Tank Engine, Wall-E (cause they're both brands that my son likes a lot), Sonic the Hedgehog (cause the reviews were great and it's closer to a real video game) and "Get Puzzled." Of all of these I thought Get Puzzled would be the last one he'd play. It was the one he gravitated towards right away and he absolutely loves it. All the games I bought got great reviews, but this was has by far held his interest. He's 4 1/2 years old..and pretty smart for his age. The game wasn't amazingly challenging for him (he skipped from level 1 to 3 most of the time) but it's been a couple months and he still prefers playing this game over the others.

I will completely disagree with the parent who said it has no educational value. It absolutely does. In fact, of all the games that I got, I think it has the most variety.

Their are many different games in "Get Puzzled"....the one my son likes the most is a game that uses logic/problem solving/comprehension skills and teaches patience. It's a space ship that you have to get from point to point on the screen until you get it to earth. There is a game that uses Math and shapes. A word search game that will show you 6 pictures (a drum, trumpet, piano, violin, guitar, etc.) and you'll try to find the corresponding words in the word search. If you don't know how to spell the word you can push on the picture and it'll spell it out for you.

Overall...even though my son blew through the game pretty quickly, he continues to enjoy it and he continues to learn things.

I would recommend this game over any other game...absolutely. Even the ones with the more name brand characters.


My almost 3-year old son got a Leapster2 with several games for Christmas. I figured he'd be all about the Cars or Diego games, but this one actually turned out to be his favorite an he plays with it most of the time.
There are so many different games to choose from on this cartridge, and his favorites are the bridge building and putting monsters back together.
I only wish I had the option to connect this cartridge to the computer and track my son's progress like I can do with games that are Leapster2 compatible.


There are certain Leapster games my 4 and 7 year old children get attached to and this isn't one of them. It is certainly a good game and helps kids with spelling, critical thinking and math. I tried it and it's rather fun. My son saw me playing it and he said he liked Critter River best. In fact, I think watching me play reignited his interest. There are three levels in each game to give each child just the right amount of challenge.

Critter River: Use the shapes to build a bridge to the other side of the river.

Word Bird: This is a word search game. In the lowest level, the words that need to be found are shown. In the highest level, a picture of the word is shown so that the child must spell the word and find it on his/her own.

Cosmic Crossing: Guide the rocket from planet to planet to get to Earth. If the child is not careful planning his route, he will shoot off into space.

About Face: Try to make the sad faces happy by giving them the features they ask for, like a blue hat and a round nose or the shortest hair.

Monster Maker: Look at the monster and remember what it looks like. The parts get scrambled and the child has to put it back together exactly as it looked.

Sky High: Build two walls that are the same height. The length of the blocks are written on the blocks to help decide which blocks go together.

My son is enjoying this game right now. I have to give it 4 stars.


The puzzles presented in this are so much fun for my 4 year old, and she's learning math without having to do the standard "flash card" type exercises! She plays this for hours and is committed to making it to the next level on each game. It's a nice change from the character-oriented games she's used to playing. I highly recommend this game!


This is by far the favorite of the four leapster games my boys received for Christmas--the others being Dora's pinata party (it came with the leapster and I can't really get them to play it simply because it's "Dora"), I Spy (the games just don't keep their interest for some reason, though I think it's a pretty good cartridge), and kindergarten (far too easy for my kindergartener and really even for my four-year-old.) Anyway, they've loved this one and have played every game repeatedly. My 6 year-old maxed it out and earned all of his "puzzle power" stars in about a week, but he decided to start again. I like the different difficulty levels available and the fact that the problems on each level become progressively harder. I do wish, though, that the games weren't the same each time you played the same one at the same level. Even though you have to complete 15-20 problems to finish a level, once kids have done that two or three times with the same 15-20 problems, the challenge is lost.
As a former math teacher, though I do like this cartridge, especially the "sky-high" where they have to practice addition by putting together beams to make pillars of matching sizes.
The monster game is also great in teaching memory, and the about face for logic.
And, my boys' favorite is the "cosmic crossing" game where they have to get the rocket home to earth, jumping from asteroid to asteroid, riding commits, and sliding through worm holes.


My son got Sonic and this game for xmas; he keeps saying that sonic is more fun but cant stop playing get puzzled!! The cartridge includes 5 or 6 games with 3 levels each and 15 puzzles each level.. my son has around 5 puzzles left to solve... IM VERY GLAD HE GOT THIS GAME FOR XMAS.


My grand daughter likes this game very much. It makes this grandma happy when the grand kids are happy!!


Well designed game. We got it right before X'mas weekend for my 6 year old. She beat it in 2 days(and we had a very quiet 2 days). She was so focused on playing with it!
However, it is definately not challenging enough for 7-8 year old kids.
