I had an order on Amazon. Then I cancelled it... then I reordered it because I thought it would be a fun thing for 420.

Anyway, I'm digging it so far. I really wish it had come out when I was younger.

It reminds me of some really basic electronic games I played when I was little, and I mean that in the best of ways. There is totally a place for those kinds of simplistic experiences that you can engage with for a few minutes at a time (especially when you're not being asked for micro purchases).

So far, I made the RC Car and the fishing rod. The car was really cute and fun to make, but I got bored of it kind of quickly. I made the fishing rod, which I'm having more fun with. Making it made me really smile. It's wonderful when you can actually spin it and tug on the string. The game attached to it is basic, but I've been putting it on for a few minutes when I have time to kill to catch a fish or two.

My one complaint so far is a lack of extra pieces. Especially the special non cardboard pieces. I dropped a plastic washer, and couldn't find it and had to use staples instead which I'm hoping holds up. For something kids are going to do, I think they'd have a few extra strings stickers and that sort of thing.

Btw, anyone have some fishing hints? Rays keep snapping my line :(
