I’m looking at this on the same day I looked at POGO Hearts, Spades and More!. Both programs are reasonably well done, but games are different.

Kids Classics: War, Crazy 8′s, Go Fish, Old Maid

POGO Hearts: Hearts, Spades, Euchre, Gin, Canasta

Both games have well drawn art to accompany the games.

Neither game has multiplayer support.

In POGO, cards can be selected with letter keys or the selector. In Kids Classics, only the selector can select cards.

If you like these particular games, I can recommend the program.

I puchased this game today and was not disappointed. I think Sonic Boom did a fine job putting this together. All 4 games use a standard deck of cards to play with. The cards themselves are very clear and easy to read. Each game plays in a timely manner with no lagging on Kindle’s part. There are no complicated control moves to learn. I have played each of the games and they all play the way we all learned how to play them when we were kids.

In GO FISH you can choose to play with either 1 or 3 kindle players (3 is more fun) and the first one to get rid of all their cards wins the game.

In WAR you play with only 1 kindle player. Both of you lay down a card and the player with the high card takes the pair. After a while this game can get a little tedious if no one seems to be getting most of…
