Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Yellow has made the biggest mistake of his peanutty life - he left the M&M's MINIs in charge of the candy factory! Needless to say, it's a candy-coated catastrophe. The M&M's candy formulas have been lost! The factory has gone haywire! Only you and Yellow can make things right.

Amazon.com Review:
The devious M&M Minis have taken over the candy factory, and it's up to you to help Yellow get a grip on this candy-coated calamity. Bubbling vats of chocolate, messed-up machinery, and revved-up robots are only some of the many obstacles you'll face in this wild driving, surfing, running, and flying adventure game.

The Lost Formulas puts kids in the driver's seat as they engage in three levels of play per game, but it's not all fun. There's an "edutainment" component that allows players to practice multilevel math drills (covering topics ranging from basic number recognition to addition, subtraction, multiplication and division), all the while going bonkers searching for the lost formulas hidden by the mischievous Minis. "I could play this forever," raved our 8-year-old tester as he expertly manned the up-, down-, left-, and right-arrow keys for the ride of his life. To turbocharge the fun, our tester suggests pressing the ALT key (Command or Apple key on the Mac) to help Yellow "do his spin attack."

Players can earn extra lives in bonus rounds and play eight zany levels, including:

Get Out of Town: The best arcade driving game we've seen. Here, kids race Yellow and his car through superbly animated cities and suburbs to arrive at the candy factory. This game makes demolition derbies seem tame.

Milk Chocolate: Vats of bubbling chocolate and crazy robots could spell trouble for Yellow. Be sure to jump the chasms and land on the platforms with the correct math answers that match the clues.

Oh, Chute!: Cleverly named, this behind-the-scenes look at the chocolate factory has kids negotiating conveyor belts, moving machinery, and opening chutes as they boost their math sequencing skills.

Candy Colors: Watch out for the flying color blobs while you fly your way through this colorful mess.

Stampin' and Sortin': Dodge the stamping and sorting machines as you run for your sweet life in this cool down round of game play.

Pack It In: Jump on the right candy boxes or else you could be in dangerous trouble. This part is what disaster management is all about.

Warehouse Woes: Who says driving a forklift is work? What a hoot!

The Shocking Truth: Get the skinny when you go behind the factory's power circuits. But don't get zapped in the electrifying final round of game play.

In a nutshell, this fast-paced, cutting-edge CD-ROM plays like a video game, but includes math drills as an added incentive. Grab this software and a bag of M&M's for some yummy fun for the whole family. (Ages 5 to 10) --Tina Velgos

Amazon.com Product Description:
In this math-building software package for kids, M&M's candies have turned the factory upside down and torn up all the M&M's candy formulas. It's up to you and Yellow to make things right. As you race through the factory, you'll face churning chocolate, rampaging robots, cascading candy ... and along the way, math drills to test your smarts and challenge your game reflexes. Children, ages 5 to 10, practice age-appropriate addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division drills while they race through a wild and funny action game. With stunning, nonviolent, high-resolution 3-D graphics and a high-paced adventure setting, this is a learning game kids will love.

- FUN Math Game
We got this game after my son was introduced to it at school, he begged for it for weeks. This game is fun even for me, the graphics are great and it is fast paced. My youngest child saw his older brother playing it, and by the time he turned four, he was not only hooked- but also pretty good at it. It has multiple levels and can teach numbers to multiplication and division. My four year old now can recognize patterns to identify the number of items within a group within seconds, and can do simple ... Read More

- Super Software for Primary/Elementary Math Skills
As an Elementary Special Education Teacher I found this software to be invaluable for students with or without special needs. The kids love it! I use it both at school and at home with nieces and nephews. Also great for eye/hand coordination, reasoning,quick thinking and memory.

- It is wonderful!
My youngest who is an ADHD kid will beg to get on M&M's to pratice her math, and she will get on it for hours. Since she has been on the game, her basic math skill got huge improvement. Plus, if she didn't finish her chores, she doesn't get to go on it, therefore, she will get them done. It was working fantasticly for us, I never have to worry about her not practicing her math skill. Try it, it is wonderful!

- Excellent, Creative Game ****************
I bought this for my son's 4th birthday because he loves the M&M's characters. This is such a cool imaginative game. The graphics are excellent, it's challenging without being too tough, and the music is nicely put together with the different levels. Very entertaining. My son is now 4 1/2 and he has taught me a few things about the game that I even missed. The math levels are also a great thing to get kids to learn without knowing they are. Also, it's very refreshing from some other games that ... Read More

- THE BEST GAME EVER!!
I do not have a copy of this game for myself, but I have played it a lot before. It has great graphics. It's also an awesome game. Explore the M&M's Factory with Yellow as you try to catch all the mini M&M's you can. Run on conveyor belts, hop on crates, dodge evil robots and machines and try your best to beat all eight exiting and fun-filled levels of the game!!!
