Every year we Moms go through the same ritual-trying to figure out what to buy our husbands for Father’s Day! Because when we ask them what we want for a gift, they usually say something like:
1. “A day of peace and quiet! That’s all I want!”
2. “Don’t buy me anything.”
3. “We can’t afford to buy the thing I really want.”
Aaarrrgh! They are so frustrating sometimes! Just like KIDS, right? Well then, this Father’s Day, buy your kid-at-heart husband something FUN- hot new handheld games from Techno Source. Rubik’s Revolution is a new, fast-paced game based on a classic he’ll remember, the Rubik’s Revolution! Or, test his knowledge of trivia with the handheld version of the hit game show “Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?” These games would also make excellent gifts for a high school graduation! Before I announce the awesome giveaway gift packages I have, here’s some info on the games.
Rubik’s Revolution is like a combination of the classic Rubik’s Cube and the game Simon. There are 6 different games to play, and each level unlocks the next one, so it’s always a challenge! You can see a quick video of people playing the game on the Rubik’s Revolution site. It’s available at major retailers and suggested retail price is $19.99, so it’s way affordable. We received two of them for review and thank goodness they sent two, because my kids like playing it as much as Chris does!
This handheld game is fun, but darn it, it’s embarassing to not be correct on a 3rd Grade science question :=P Just like the TV show, the object is to answer 11 questions in a row from 13 elementary school subjects (1st through 5th grade). It includes over 2,500 questions. Just as in the show you partner up with classmates, use the peek (look at classmates’ answer), save (your classmate saves you with the answer) and copy (copy your classmates’ answer) features to help win a virtual one million dollars. The hand held game incorporates the TV show theme music and sounds, and comes with a pencil styled stylus to use on the easy to read, simple to use touch screen. The touch screen is fully illuminated with an adjustable volume control, screen contrast and text scrolling speed. It comes with 2 AAA batteries and retails for $19.99. And it’s fun!
