Hands down the worst board game I've ever encounteredMar 18, 2007
By T. Brown
Our daughter is 3 and a half years old, and loves Dora & Diego, so we were not surprised when she picked this game. We have other Dora/Diego toys and games, and many of the books. The short story is this: the game is pointless, poorly designed, requires little thought, and might be the product of 15 minutes contemplation by some bored marketing folks at University Games over beers one afternoon.
Here's a few more details if you are still reading and considering a purchase. First of all, the game is poorly designed. Players move flimsy cardboard pieces around a map, but the map is a huge wrinkled piece of vinyl that cannot be placed flat upon a floor, so the pieces do not stay upright. There are four story scenes placed in the corners of the map, face-down during the first stage, and when a player reaches one of these boards they select 2 cheap colorforms to the backside of the board. A player who has done this with all 4 boards moves to the center of the map, and then when everyone has done this, the story boards are flipped over to reveal a scence. The players then stick the colorforms in the scene to make up a random story from Diego's world. The entire game is just a flimsy advertisement for more stuff from the Dora/Diego series. The only thing a small child may find fun is sticking colorforms on a scene, but it doesn't require this weak excuse of a game to do that.

Do Not Buy This Toy!Mar 04, 2007
By J. Miller
We received this as a present for my [...] who is a HUGE Diego fan and loves Colorforms. He was so excited. The gameboard is not cardboard like most board games but instead has a plastic sheet that has been folded numerous times to get it into such a small box. It does not lay flat despite taping it and using books to weigh it down. The game pieces are tall, lightweight cardboard figures that are impossible to have stand on a bumpy gameboard. So it ends up being used just for the two small sheets of tiny Diego colorforms instead of a game. For $20, there are way better Diego and colorforms toys out there.

Not even really a gameFeb 15, 2010
By MBShick
As I write this there are currently two other reviews of this product, both giving it one star, and I agree with everything that they have said about it. Even reading the instructions for this game was annoying and it becomes immediately obvious that it's a pointless activity that no child of any age is going to enjoy. The comments regarding the game "board" are spot on -- the plastic mat will *never* lay flat and the playing pieces won't stand up on it. You start by placing your playing piece anywhere you want on the path and there's no indication of whether you're supposed to move in a particular direction. There's no real object to the game except getting it over with as quickly as possible, but since each player is supposed to complete a lap of the board, it's just a seemingly endless slog. There are no rewards and no penalties, so the only thing that happens aside from picking up the Play Scene cards (each player gets one) is that you occasionally collect a couple of the color form stickers when one of the other players lands on the area where your Play Scene had been. No one wins -- the first player to complete a lap gets a special sticker -- but everyone loses for having spent precious minutes of their lives enduring this torture. Then you're supposed to make up a story using your scene and the colorform pieces -- if you enjoy that kind of thing, and you've done something so wrong that you've come into possession of this game, I'd recommend just skipping to the making up a story part and punt on the "game".
