Mother of Two [Posted on 2007-01-09]
My kids each got a set of these for Christmas and at first I thought they would be disappointed with them, they didn't do much. But they seem to do more the longer you play with them. They're pretty neat, I just wish they had an off switch. They may I just haven't found them yet.
good for shared space [Posted on 2007-05-30]
This is amusing for about 20 minutes, until you've seen the little guys do their thing and seen them fall and get shook up. This is not a toy to play with repeatedly, but it is a good toy to have if your desk gets visited by others...will give them something to do while waiting for you or give you something to do when you'd wish they would leave.
Not What I Expected [Posted on 2007-09-19]
The idea of these toys is very cute. I thought I would buy them, sit them on my desk at work and have a conversation piece. The problem. They turn themselves off after ten minutes if you do not interact with them. I thought I could just sit them up and watch them interact with each other. I don't want to have to interact with them constantly. Besides the games really are very basic and do not hold your attention for long. Watching them interact with each other is amusing if only they stayed until I turned them off.
Great distraction from the workday [Posted on 2007-10-22]
I'm forever looking for something to keep at my desk as a distraction from the tedious chore of computer programming. I spotted them in the store and loved it immediately. I'll periodically turn them on and watch the antics while waiting for information from others. My co-workers come over just to watch them.
As for an educational value, I don't see it. From a "child's" perspective, I could see how they'd become bored with it. From an adult's perspective, I think it's great.
Stick Men Behaving Badly [Posted on 2008-10-08]
I bought several sets of these for my young neice. I am glad I previewed (ok, played with) them first. Some of the things these stick men do is not exactly G rated. They fart on each other, hit each other with fists and objects and then laugh as the other one falls down or crawls away, throw tantrums in their cubes, get hit in the groin and fall over...bascially you can't leave two of them alone together without a fight breaking out. One time a scantily pixeled girl popped out of a cake. While it is amazing what they can do with so few pixels, I am sending mine back. IMHO, their behavior is just too bad to be showing to small children.
