how the discovery kids lazer tag works

Turn them on, point them at each other and push the reset button to activate each other's spaceship (you will here a bleep to know it was activated). When activated the lights start flashing and it makes a continues beeping sound similar to a coin operated ride childrens ride at the mall. Once activated you get 5 shots, if a spaceship is "hit" it will vibrate. Once you use your five shots you press reload to get 5 more shots. Whoever hits their opponent 6 times wins. The spaceship makes a "dying" sound to let you know it has been hit 6 times. My son loves it!

I thought it was just sounds and lights . . . then I read the instructions. LOL Turn them both spaceships on. Point one at the other. Press and hold the reset button down on one until you hear a BLEEP noise and it lights up. Then you repeat this with the other one pointing it at the first. You have 5 shots each. Start playing. Your spaceship will vibrate and sound off when you are hit. Pressing the reload button will give you 5 more shots. Enjoy!

The two hand units are both the targets and the guns. You go through a sync process by pointing them at each other and long pressing a button (outlined in manual that comes with). After they are synced you point and shoot with the thumb button on the underside of the ship. I would say the sync process drives the age limit necessary to enjoy this toy. It can be a little frustrating for younger children.

The top of the toy, see the red button, lights up. When you press the non-number buttons, there is singing and also announcement depending on the type of button e.g. "volume UP", "Changing channel is such fun!"

This was a Christmas gift for my granddaughter. I have NO idea how it works. Sorry I couldn't be of any help to you.

I believe they cannot work with the regular Tag, because of the design aimed for children of different ages. These are supposed to be just press onto any spot on the card to interact with the child. The original has to drag along to word to assist in reading skills. Hope this helps.

We bought a set for all the nephews for Christmas, they come with a set of rechargeable batteries and a cord to charge each set. They play all day and charge them at night like a cell phone. Still on that set on batteries, would recommend to anyone, difficult to go thru house walls for neighborhood laser tag though.

I haven't used it personally, but its for my 4 year old granddaughter, apparently she can go to the a web site from the leappad and pick her apps, and with mom's help can enter the card information and buy what they want. They are very happy with it, so it must be easy to use.

Yes! You need it but it's worth the money you pay for a Tag reader. It's a great product and my kids love it. I bought 2, one for each kid ;)

No you can't. You need to download the lazer tag app to your phone or ipod and then plug it to the gun. Then you can play.

The tag you see in the corner is actually a small magnet designed to keep the Smart Cover held in place when folded back. The branding on the magnet is permanent.

Yes you can use a regular tag to read the books, my boys have both and go back and forth

The sticknfind works great inside your house to locate all objects. Your kids will learn to use it easily with the help of a cell phone.

I can't find the app in the App Store either. I see that the company Duo from Discovery Bay has been defunct since 2013. I bought mine over the summer, so it was still available up to that point. The cards were mostly used in a game where the kids scattered the cards, then the app would say which one to find and it would time you. The kids tried to beat the clock while the app showed short videos to correspond with each character. I would suggest returning it for a refund, but the iPad case is so cool. My son loves it almost as much as the app.

I don't know. I never could get my granddaughter to use it. So, I have no real experience in how it works or doesn't work.

Sorry, I cannot answer the question. I bought this for my grandson and have no idea how it works.

It needs to be connected periodically so you can get the data from the games. It gives a mice overview of your child's abilities. Also, your child will get more rewards when connected. As often as you want the feedback.

hook it to your computer. Its in the rewards tab on the leapfrog connect app on your computer. when they play the games they unlock different things like music or clothing etc. :)

Absolutely. It works with motion detection so I've had service people notice it and comment that a neighbor kid was pointing laser at me/them.
