My son loves tops and other spinning toys that compete (without naming names). He really liked this toy it added a new challenge to spinning. Other Children have come over and they want to try it too. For some it is very challenging and may cause frustration, for others they master it right away.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is a challenge. Definitely gets me working on it too. It is small, perfect for children, but not super small for an adult.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This proved difficult even for adults to enjoy. You can't underestimate the difficulty of getting it to spin well. My 7 year old Grandson picked it with his Dad, and he was way too young to enjoy.

This is a really fun game. I haven't had it more than 12 hours and already several people have been drawn into playing it. I really like that there are two different sides, that offer different challenges.

I have gotten pretty good with the Syclone. I can even land it on a table top then with one hand using two fingers under the disk throw it back on the board with it still spinning pretty good. I like all the physics and live action. It gets me off video games from time to time. Cool game!

When my grand kids come to visit I always get out my Syclone and we compete. Great family fun and very different. Thanks to Mindware for a great game design.

At first I beat my brother but after he got really good at it we tie a lot. It is a fun game when you compete and even solo.

At first this kind of put me off. However it soon got me addicted!! Physics of gyro action, friction, timing, very cool and real world live action as opposed to a lot of video games. A lot of hand eye coordination, quick planning and feel for how you will get there successfully.
