I have a 2 month old high-end Dell PC with tons of memory and disk, running Windows XP Pro. This game doesn’t work. Period. First of all, when I installed it, it reset my graphics options. Second, when I attempt to play a game, even at the settings that it chose, I get nothing but a white screen. After numerous tries, and killing the program with the task manager, I finally attempted the other Activities options. Clicking on them does absolutely nothing! It doesn’t recognize my mouse clicks.
I’m assuming that the game was written for the Apple Mac, and ported to the PC. Trust me, it doesn’t work.
BTW, we have tons of other kids games and have never had a problem with any of them.
Now I have to figure out how to return this silly thing.

My son loves the game. Unfortunately for some activities he needs help to figure out what to do. Some of the activities are tricky to understand the goal and no explanation is provided (the frog must jump on similar colored lily pads).
The game runs fine on my old G4 700mhz – Mac, which is nice.

I bought Didi & Ditto because I was looking for a computer game for my son who is 3. Not only does he enjoy it, but so does his brother who is 8. While I wouldn’t buy it for an 8-year old, I think this attests to the broad range of activities this software offers. It’s a winner in our home!

My 4 yo daughter began playing this at the Apple store while waiting for us. She loved it so much we bought it before we left.
There are parts she can do all by herself and parts difficult enough to require help from Mom + Dad. Which I think of as good. It gives her a sense of accomplishment and is challenging enough to require our help and allow her to grow with the game.
Look at it like this…it’s better than TV.

The problem with this game starts with the introductury movie… it develops slowly, goes on forever, suffers from disconnected animation and does little to set up the ridiculous premise for game play.
Once game play FINALLY does start, my child found the games boring and the TRANSITIONS between the games tediously slow. Cute characters…zero edutainment. It was consigned to the dustbin by the end of the day.
