Average Rating:
Rating: - Fun to play, but has some technical/support issues
My 5-1/2 year old can't get enough of this game! I have to ration his playing time. Game play gets 5 stars.
Technical/support issues:
1) If you install under "Dad's Account" on your Mac, the game may fail to launch when your Mac is switched into "Junior's Account" because you probably (wisely) made Junior's account a non-admin account, so his account can't write to the application folder. Fix this by logging back into Dad's account, clicking on the outermost application folder ... Read More
Rating: - lego star wars is a great family game
This game was a lot of fun to play with my eight year old. We had not played any video games before but were hooked and enjoyed working through the levels together. I bought the logitec precision control pad to go with the game, but it does not work with this game on a mac laptop. It did however work with the other lego games.
Rating: - Workaround for problem with OS X install to non-admin users
[Copied here from a blog post of mine as this will be of interest to any OS X user buying this game]
I really dislike buying desktop computer games. The software quality is poor, and the vendor support is usually lousy.
Unfortunately my 9yo prefers Mac games to Wii games, so when he's earned a big incentive for overcoming a real challenge, we end up with another OS X game.
Rating: - Great game
|My son loves this game. It works well with Mac. I like the game because it is good clean fun.
Rating: - Great game for all ages
If you'd like a game that you can play with your young child at the same time this is a great one. My son is four years old and he absolutely loves this. Characters never die so you can play as long as you like. It also has challenges for the adults. It's cute while also action packed. Clearly, this is not a game for the hardcore gamer but a lot of good fun.
