Hyper Dash™ The Electronic Game that's as Fast as you are!

This just in! Hyper Dash wins an iParenting Award for "Outstanding Products, Toys & Games"

Overview:
Hyper Dash will challenge you to be your best. It takes no time at all to learn, but selectable skill levels and four completely different game modes mean the challenge, like a real sport, will last a lifetime.

Hyper Dash consists of one electronic tagger and five different colored and numbered targets. The tagger plays pre-recorded music and calls out which targets you need to strike. It tracks the amount of time taken to complete each course. The tagger uses radio frequency identification (RFID) to recognize the targets, which can be set up side-by-side, or spread out across the length of a football field. There's no limit to the distance between targets. Farther targets result in more running and exercise. Hyper Dash can be played indoors or outdoors; solo, in pairs, or in teams. Parents vs. Kids is an entertaining option. Cooperative siblings can work together to beat their best time, while more competitive kids prefer the head-to-head mode. As your speed, skill and agility improve, the series of commands becomes longer and more challenging. Level one calls out the colors you need to tag, level two includes numbers, level three adds special commands (Double Strike, Triple Strike, Reverse, Double Reverse) and level four features Compu-Strike (addition/subtraction problems in which you tag the sum or difference of the numbers called out). Other play modes include the memory game of Micro Dash and multi-player relay races that promote teamwork. For a game of Hide 'n Dash, let your opponent hide the targets before you begin. Every game has encouraging cheers and upbeat music to keep kids on their feet, expending energy and having fun.

Features:
- Follow the announcer's commands and tag the targets with the handheld unit -- fastest time wins!
- Set the targets on the table, around the room, or outdoors to test your speed and agility to the max.
- Choose from 4 game modes to challenge your speed, skill, memory, coordination and teamwork.
- Play solo, head-to-head, or in teams.
- Music and voice drive the action.
- Includes ergonomically designed Hyper Dash unit and 5 targets.

Requires 3 AA batteries, not included.

Great for school therapists!

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love this product and use it often in treatment sessions. It is extremely versatile. I have used it with children of all ages and cognitive levels individually and in groups. The possibilities are endless. Work through the developmental sequence from prone to quadraped, kneel and 1/2 kneel. Even single leg stance and seated on the ball. Easy to facilitate trunk rotation and PNF patterns dependent on positioning. Gross motor skill development varied with inclusion of animal walks to hit target. A must have!

 
Great game for the whole family!

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Our whole family loves playing this game! It is great fun for kids and adults alike. The only improvement I would make would be allowing you to set the level on a per-player basis so that the littler kids could play at a lower level and still play against the bigger kids and adults (who would be at higher levels). Still, we have great fun with this game and it is a great way to keep everyone active.

Tabletop rainy day fun or outdoor blast!

Bottom Line:

Not only fun to play on a tabletop when you're shut in on a rainy day, but you can take it outdoors and have a blast too! The "team dash" options make it fun for kid get-togethers like birthdays, sleep-overs, and pool parties. I love how it shuts itself off when not being used--saves on batteries and disappointments because it's always ready to go.

The SPED children I work with enjoy this game, but I wish it was more intuitive. I don't know how to play each game, and the instructions seem to have gotten lost with the Christmas wrapping. I wish they were posted on the box or on the game itself.

I got this for my son and daughter (11 and 14) and from the moment thy tried it the day after Christmas it got daily use. Every friend from 6-16 that saw it couldn't help but join in and have a ball, and there are play options to fit every age and ability level. It's fantastic to keep kids moving and busy inside when it's too cold for outdoor play, and every bit as much fun outside. Both my kids immediately thought it would be great for parties. Highly recommended.

I tried it out as soon as I received it and ended up getting my husband involved. We were laughing the whole time. All my kids and grandkids come over xmas eve and we all play a game. This year is hyperdash! Iknow they will love it. My only problem is that I get so into it, I tend to slam it too hard. Its nice that you can change the difficulty level.

My 8-year-old son, who is autistic, requested this game for christmas. I don't know where he saw it, but he wanted it and made sure to mention it often. Luckily for me, I was able to purchase a double pack from one of the warehouse type stores at a very reasonable price. Both he and his 11-year-old sister enjoy racing against each other and the clock. This game really doesn't need recommending. Every child who plays it at our house automatically asks his parent for it immediately afterwards.

When it got dark outside, game moved indoors and was just as much fun!

I bought this product for my 3 year old son, hoping he would get out some energy this winter when we are stuck indoors. And I was right!! Even at his young age, he was able to play Level 1 Hyper Dash and really enjoyed trying to beat his best time. My husband and I also had a ball playing the MIcro Dash setting, it's like an updated Simon Says. This will keep us busy for years to come.

Our family loves this toy. The set-up was easy and then we just practiced the games at all the different levels. It was fun and challenging even for the adults. I think this is a great toy to get kids and adults up and moving, whether it be indoors or out. Even if we are playing at the easiest level for my son, he loves the energy and his enthusiasm shows. When my husband and I played...our brains were challenged quite a bit for the memory sequences. It travels easy as well. We took it on vacation with us and played inside when it was raining. It takes up barely any room in the suitcases. Worth the money.

This game gets kids moving!

Pros:
Can Withstand Use, Educational, Encourage movement, Entertaining, Fun
Cons:
Needs sound adjustment
Best Uses:
Children
Describe Yourself:
Physical Therapist
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I am a pediatric physical therapist and work in a school district. This product is great for getting the kids to move! I use it as a reward when they have gotten their "work" done. They don't even realize that they are still working. I place the targets on different surfaces so that they have to reach, bend down, or climb onto things to strike them. HyperDash encourages sustained movement, starting/stopping/turning without losing balance, and listening skills, as well as enforces color and number recognition. My only wish is that you could adjust the sound, because it is sometimes difficult to hear. Also, it is not always sensitive to the double and triple strikes and the kids have to keep hitting the target. Thank you for making such a great product!!

This is a great toy for indoors on rainy days, and outside to keep the kids active. It has four games, each can be played by one to four players. My son can keep himself busy while I'm cooking dinner. We also play it together to blow off steam. It has one game that's reminiscent of Simon--I love the nostalgia! It's like being a kid again.

The Best Kids Toy for a rainy day

Describe Yourself:
Parent
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

It was a cold day outside and my kids needed to let off some steam so we opened the Hyper-Dash game that we got for Xmas. After hours of fun everyone, including the adults, were sweating at the end and getting very competitive. Even my 5 years old boy who never likes anything for more than 15 mins loved it. The toy is not only fun but great for kids to get exercises in-doors on rainy or cold days. I liked that the kids had to really listen to the instruction especially the math questions.
This toy should be winning awards. If only more toy manufacturers could be more like Wild Planet. By the way I have never written a comment about a toy before but I just had to thank Wild Planet for designing such a wonderful product - Thank you

We bought this for our ten-year-old daughter, but her 13-year-old older sister seems to like it as much, if not better. They have played it outside and inside. My older daughter likes the competitive nature of the game. My younger one usually plays against herself, so as to compete only against herself.

I was hoping to encourage more physical activity with this game, but you can play it without having to run around at all. The kids who think it's fun to run around spread the targets out farther. Those who don't like to move as much place them closer together. . . .

Gee whiz, I wish I had opened the box sooner over the Christmas holidays. My 6 year old son was bouncing off the walls and I was ready for school to start! Hyper dash was very easy to use and immediately engaging. He was happily occupied for some time. The next game we played together all the while laughing as we dashed about our small townhouse. We plan to take it to our next Tiger Cub meeting as a fun activity for those lively boys.

They were able to run from spot to spot in a desired path that I set. Since it was winter they were not able to get adequate exercise and this game really gave it to them. Wonderful.

This product is great. Both my 8 yr old and 6 yr old love it. It's great for either single or multi-player use, so no squabbles. For even younger players, you can use it to teach colors and numbers 1-5 by placing the targets side by side. For older players, you can make the game ridiculously fun by spreading the targets out all over the house or yard.

My husband and I laughed hysterically at how the kids raced (screaming the whole time) to all the targets. My husband so enjoyed the fun that he joined in himself, yelling and waving his arms as he raced to the targets, egged on by the kids.

Hyper Dash would be an excellent gift for any child or family, but I think it would be even more ideal for overweight children since it makes running fun.

The only thing I'd do to make the toy better is make the green target a deeper green--I think it's too similar to the yellow target.

But even that being the case, I highly recommend it!

I gave Hyper Dash to my 3 1/2 year old grandson who is pretty sharp intellectually but not very coordinated. He tried it out by himself indoors on the easiest level and had a fun time. I like the fact that the game is so versatile and will still be appropriate (and fun) as he gets older. It's good exercise for the body and the mind and provides an opportunity for kids and parents to play together.

Bottom Line:

I was worried that my niece (5 yrs old) & nephew (3 yrs old) were too young to play with it. There are 2 games possible: Hyper Dash and Micro Dash. Micro Dash requires more cognitive development as you have to remember the right sequence of colors/numbers to tag. The 3-yr-old did not understand the concept, and the 5-yr-old was competent, but got a little frustrated. Hyper Dash is easier as all you have to do is run to tag one color/number at a time. Both kids were good at this. Also, the adults would watch the kids and get sucked into wanting to test their skill, too. One drawback: the color/number disks are small and impossible to see if you spread them over a large playing field. Better in the back yard or the play room.

I bought Hyper Dash for all of my neices and nephews, as well as my own son, for X-mas. The ages range from 3years to 11years. All of them love it!!! The 3year old gets practice with his colors and numbers by having them lined up in front of him. Siblings are able to play together and singletons have a great time by themselves. The adults also enjoy it! Hide & seek is a blast, too. It is wonderful that this is a game with movement. Highly recommended for children of all ages.

This was a Christmas gift for my 6-yr old son but his 7-yr old sister and 3-yr old brother also had a blast with it (and they all loved laughing at Mom & Dad running around with it!). It gets the kids moving and is a lot of fun. We've only had it a few days but so far it seems pretty durable. The voice that calls out the colors is easy to understand even when you're running around. There are only 3 buttons and my 6-yr old can successfully operate it to select which game he wants, how many players, and what level of play. My kids love to put it on the 3-player setting and compete to see which of them can get the fastest time. Overall, user-friendly; has a nice variety of one-player or multi-player games without being overly complicated to use; great for winter indoor recreation so far and I imagine we'll use it outside in the warm weather as well. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because we haven't had it long enough to know how well it's going to hold up, but it seems pretty well made.

Hyper Dash is a great indoor gross motor activity, especially during the winter months! Just be careful with little hands. When you push down on the handle, little "pinky" fingers can get pinched. I use this game in school and have had to add padding to the game so that younger kids can use it.

Kids from 5 to 11 ran around staying out of the kitchen at Thanksgiving. When weather turned bad, they brought it inside and played around the house.

Setting the game and level and players was a little confusing, even for the older kids, as the buttons didn't make sense to them.

My son got this for his birthday, we had just encountered the fires in Southern Ca and he wasn't able to run outside for a week, well this game took care of it inside a house. It was great!!! I tried it and laughed so hard and was so out of breath!!! I love this game! Very simple at level 1 and too much thinking for me at level 4. Great for kids of all ages and perfect for family entertaining. Also, this game would be great for parties!

Great game. Lots of fun. The game could be expended to be more educational. If there were 10 taggers and a whole setting for computations then you could sell alot of these to elementary schools.

This game could be expanded to be more educational. As teachers, my husband and I would love to use this in our classrooms if there was a specific setting for math (number sense/addition/subtraction). This game has a lot of potential!

I volunteer alot at my daughter school. I would like to do a fundraiser and sell this product to the kids. Is there a discount for multiple purchases. The principal would like to inquire. Please let me know if that is available.
