User Comments about the Carmen San Diego Word Detective (Jewel Case)

I haven't been able to try it yet, since it doesn't work on Mac OS X. Will have to try it on PC XP system and see how it is. It claims to be Mac compatible, but it isn't.



A good buy for your money. This was the best of them all, and your kids will not stop playing it. This is yet another classic by the Carmen Sandiego line. It is more educational that I first expected, and has everything from grammar to spelling. Sorry, a great buy for your money.
