My 7 year old son is in love with the Didj my dad got him, and he only had the Jetpack Heroes that was included. So, I decided to add to his repertoire. After all, I know the Leapster wasn't much without the cartridges and the included games weren't ever nearly as fun as the ones we bought.
I was a little concerned that the Star Wars game would have the same math concepts he worked on in Jetpack Heroes, but it is different. Instead of addition, subtraction, multiplication, my son gets to work on fractions, place value and geometry.
I tried it myself and there is enough math to keep my son thinking. He gets a to be a jedi with a light saber who goes around a maze of hallways killing bad guys and while trying to survive. He has to stop once in awhile and answer questions like which pie chart shows 1/10 colored in or what number in 693 is in the hundreds place or how many sides does a pentagon have.
For those worried about violence, it is cartoon violence against robots and there is no blood. I'd say it`s about as violent as Tom and Jerry, except the robots die (disappear). That may not be enough for some, but at least you know what you are getting into.
My son loved his Leapster, but he said he's not going back. Didj is much better. He likes being able to customize the game. I like being able to track his progress and help choose what concepts he's working on.

Star wars is a math oriented game that is great for grades 1 - 3 and review or refresh of basic math for older kids. More difficult math for upper levels needs a different game. The fun my boys have with this game, they don't even realize they are doing math and learning. They are learning and refreshing so much I am very pleased! I can program the game to specify the areas each child needs to work on (multiplication for my eldest, two digit adding and subtracting with carrying/borrowing for my middle and +/- 0-12 for my youngest) I highly recommend this for fun and or math!

My son got the Diji for Christmas this year from Santa and he literally didn't put it down for three days. With the after X-mas sales I got him this game. Along with other parents I worried that it may be too old for him (he is 6) and might be too much of a challenge with the math skills. No, he did just fine. He only asked me for a little bit of help, and thanks to his sister-who got online and spent some of his "credits" he has new challenges and new stuff for all of his games. Way to go Diji, keep the cool games coming and this will stick around for a long time.

My 7 yo son wanted to play this game on his DiDJ so he saved and finally bought it. When it arrived, he desperately open the box and inserted the cartridge in the game console. A few minutes later he was enjoying , making noices and having fun. The questions provided in this game were something new for him so this keep him excited and inmerse in the game.
I asked hime the next day about some of the questions the game showed up and he was able to retain knowledge. That's nice! He's on advance math class :)
My son loves this game! January 18, 2009

I purchased this game for my 2nd grade son. The game play is fluid and easy. It doesn't frustrate him but challenges him enough to keep him playing. He looks forward to answering the questions. I love that it learns and keeps his mind working for various questions. The game play is arcadish. You run around as Anakin (on lvl 1) or Obi Won Knobi (on lvl 2) and use your light saver to destroy robot drones and every so often (enough to make it worth while but not so much that it is frustrating) you answer math questions. My son loves games and it keeps him calm when we go out of the house and is a great reward system for him. If he is going to play I would rather that at least he the games are educational - and this game fits!
