Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say Not yet rated
Kids say (1 ):

Kids who enjoy testing their knowledge will love this game. They get to be the adult who must call on smart fifth-graders to help answer questions about school subjects. Some questions are easy, others hard, many deliberately tricky. The theme music and presentation are slick and exciting, just like the TV show, and the game moves along fast culminating in the opportunity to win a virtual $1 million. The game is single player but kids and parents can have fun playing it together.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
