I have 2 sons aged 10 and 11 who received this for Christmas. They love science and games like Carmen San Diego on computer so we thought this would be great for them. It has 6 cases to work on and everything is provided to solve cases. They are pretty intelligent boys but were practically in tears when they tried to do the first case. So I sat down with them and we began to work on it. Even I was frustrated. The first case involved using a microscope. The one provided in the kit is USELESS. ... Read More

I saw this on sale in a Discovery Channel store and had a feeling my 7 year old son would love it. It is a very elaborate kit, and the materials are well constructed, with high-gloss printed instructions, "confidential" sealed envelopes with the answer keys, vials with hair, fiber, blood and ink "evidence" for various forensics tests. It's applied science--getting kids engaged and learning without their even realizing it. The cases are all very cool--the kids are special agents for the "Installation" ... Read More

I really want to give this 5 stars, but we have had major problems with the microscope this comes with. First we couldnt get the battery compartment open, and now we are having a terrible time focusing it. Did not see any instructions on the proper way to focus...nearly impossible for a 7 year old to do, considering 2 intelligent adults with science backgrounds cant do it. We have found it necessary to buy another microscope to use with it which is a shame considering how much money it cost to begin with. ... Read More

Bought as a gift for my nephew, age 12. He soon disappeared into his room for lengthy periods of testing fabrics, fake blood etc. I admit to knowing little about the inner workings of the product, but can report that it did keep a kid who normally can't sit still for more than 5 minutes fully occupied for hours. After a few days, he was asking for the add on kits with more mysteries and fingerprinting.

I LOVE this toy. It is so cool because there is a lot of testing you can do on fibers, hair, ink, and blood. You can flip to different pages in the case book and there are codes you can crack too. I have learned a lot from it. I bet other kids would like it if they are into crime scene stuff and mysteries. I can't wait for more cases to come out because they are long, they keep you busy, and they are fun!
