Keep your kids active with Hyper Blast, a game that challenges the body and mind. Based on the listen-think-move concept behind award-winning predecessors (Hyper Dash, Hyper Jump and Animal Scramble), this new game is a high-energy alternative to sedentary entertainment.
Kids stomp their feet to send numbers flying, and then run to retrieve the numbers as quickly as possible. The game has a base unit with a central launch pad and a speaker that calls out which numbers to run to and pick up. Players must return the numbers to the correct location on the base to receive their next command.
Hyper Blast is for kids ages 6 and up. It can be played solo or in teams, indoors or out, and does not require a video screen or electrical outlet.
Varying levels of difficulty keep the game challenging as kids’ motor and number skills progress. The game starts with basic color and number recognition and advances to more complex commands. Hyper Blast tracks each player’s time and, in team mode, declares a winner, eliminating any possibility of disagreements over who won.
Hyper Blast focuses on listening, memory and math skills with questions such as “What is 2 plus 3?” or “What comes between 4 and 6?” In both instances the player would run, pick up the ball with the number 5 on it and put it back in the slot on the game’s base. The game incorporates double digit numbers and head-to-head challenges, as well as a series of speed games.
Ages 6+ Requires 3 AA batteries, sold separately.
