Editorial Review:

While it's true that you probably haven't been spending your life silently pining for a chance to play 20 Questions against the detached head of R2D2, this toy, which more or less simulates that experience, provides that opportunity. The premise is pretty simple: think of something and then answer the machine's various questions using buttons marked "yes", "no", "sometimes", and "unknown". A floating display inside the domed top of the toy and an "undo" button provide some added appeal but it's really the same old game of 20 Questions you've been playing for years. While it would appear that the human would have an advantage in this contest and that a machine couldn't deduce the right answer with yes or no questions, we found ourselves losing the game an unsettling amount of the time. /i>

Editorial Review:

This hand held version of the popular V Smile educational game console makes for a handy companion on a trip, in the backyard, or wherever a kid might want to go. It works with all the same V Smile "smartridges" as the larger console and features adaptable buttons for left and right handed play. Back at home, it can also plug into a television set to play all the games on a bigger screen. The appeal of the V Smile series, of course, is that all the games are educational and help build skills that kids don't even realize they're building. This pocket size set includes a game of Zayzoo, My Alien Classmate that teaches vocabulary, math, logic, and more. /i>
