Clifford Musical Memory Games

Format: CD-ROM

Details: Review

In this fourth release from the Clifford series, children go back to Birdwell Island to help out Clifford and friends. This time a storm breaks the island’s radio tower, putting a stop to the island’s music. To bring back favorite songs and instruments, kids play music games. They do lots of sound sequencing (a little too much for our testers), collect objects to reconstruct instruments, and play a seashell sound concentration game. There’s lots of experimentation with the ten main keyboard notes, which our testers enjoyed. The scavenger hunt theme is fun, but a little confusing. Kids don’t always know what or why they are playing. Instruction was a little overdone (and not always interruptible), and some of the screens were missing an easy exit icon. All things considered, this game is not as strong as the others in the series, but a pleasant musical experience nonetheless. Parents appreciated the musical focus and testers wanted to play to the end. In this early version, our testers couldn’t find one of the items– a wooden plank– and were unable to complete the game.
