For our daughter (7J) exploring the countries is very interesting.
There is information on country names, Hautpstadt, highest mountain, area, language, population etc.
Good are also some of the games where you have to find, for example, countries with x neighbors or countries adjacent to certain seas etc. Exciting also the search of as many countries within a span. There are games to play alone and multi-player.
Less good I find, for example, the animal sound game at the animal sounds resound, you must then assign the imprinted on the globe games. There are many sounds that you've never heard before. This however already leads the first mistake the end of the game, will betray without doing what animal would have been right. Here the frustration limit even for adults is much too low.
Criticism I have to practice to details that would be but probably fix via update:
- Russia is reliably detected only in the region of Moscow
- Some countries are recognized only after repeated tapping. That does not bother especially at the time playing immensely and frustrated then.
- Some countries are called correctly in the tourism guide, in the game but then partially wrong (eg the Sudan Congo, Dem than reported..) Or not (Southern Sudan does not exist in the game 2).
- Some information is incorrect (eg not located on Puerto Rico supposedly Karib sea Playing it is then punished so that the pin Puerto Rico as a wrong choice denounces when countries should call on Carib Sea....)
Positive but you have to mention is the support of Ravensburger top notch. I have written to the Christmas holidays to the support, because I only thought the pin was broken, because countries were only detected unreliable. The support has responded yet on holiday and would replace the pin free. Also spare parts for globe are usually supplied for free.
