Customer Reviews

The most boring Leapster game yet.
I bought my [...] daughter this game yesterday, she played it for 2 minutes and hated it. I played it for 5 minutes and now understand why she didn't like it. There is only one game on the cartridge- you pick one of three letterpillar faces and then you are supposed to use the arrow pad to guide the creature to eat letters. Level one has 1 capital letter and 1 number on the screen, if you eat the number the letterpillar gets sick and it tells you to eat the letter. Once you eat the letter, another one appears, and so on. If you run into the wall or a brick, the creature dies and after the creature dies three times, your game is over. We have the Kindergarten cartridge and the Disney Princess Cartridge and both of those have multiple games on each one and are so much more interesting to play. Don't waste your money on this one!

Letterpillar - doesn't stack up to other Leapster games
While my 3 yr old and 5 yr old play this game some, it doesn't compare to the other cartridges we own. There is only one game on the cartridge. It is simple, and I'm not convinced it has much educational value, as do most of the other Leapster games we have. I recommend you buy the Draw & Write or the Letter Factory. My children fight / "take turns" over those two games and they are educational.

Very dissapointing
We bought this game for our 3 and 5 year old - they do not like it at all! It is a very boring game and difficult to maneuver the caterpillars - don't waste your money!!! It kept their attention for about 5 minutes and then they moved on. They love the SpiderMan, Nemo, and Disney Princess cartridges the best!
