We have just a Wii for our children aged 10 to 4 My son was 4 years old, always with some of the games my daughter plays frustrated, so we get him this Diego Dinosaur Rescue game. He needed help for about ten minutes, but after that it all. The control is given to much (there is no falling / dying and many ways to be successful), and there are even some physical activity involved (one reason why we decided to Wii in comparison to other gaming systems). He gets to dig, swim, climb and fly.

AlsoIt is worth noting that this is a wonderful game for children with autism. My son was diagnosed last year, and tends towards the mechanical / building toys. This game with all its fun and physical acting out of activities that promote role-playing in a small guy who needs the practice. It fulfills the need to find out things, but also helps him to practice some of the skills he needs to work.
