    I love PlayShifu games and toys!!
    The PlayShifu Tacto Doctor was a hit with my son—he had a lot of fun pretending to be a doctor and loved the interactive gameplay. It’s great for sparking curiosity about medical tools and basic health concepts, making it both fun and educational. However, the sensors can be a bit tricky to get right, and the game options are somewhat limited, so it’s best suited for short play sessions. Overall, it’s a good mix of entertainment and learning for younger kids!

      For fun and learning, this gets 5 stars! My son caught on immediately, and loved helping the animal & human patients while following along with the story dialogue. He was learning different symptoms and the related diagnoses, which is great for expanding his knowledge of basic health. A great way to desensitize to the fear associated with doctor visits.

      For functionality, this gets 4 stars! Downloading the app wasn't as straightforward as I expected, as the QR code kept taking me to a website that had an error. And I couldn't find the app in the Play store. I finally found it by switching to my profile on my son's Fire tablet (hd 10, 11th gen) searching for the app name in the browser. Then enabled it for his profile.

      I had no problem registering the tools. Most are easy to use, but a few of them are tricky to use (dropper bottle requires precise lining up where you want to the drop to go; scissor tool is tricky to hold long enough to select which of the 3 devices). My son is able to use the other tools himself; he loves the xray and bandage.

      I love there are 3 games, with multiple levels/games within. This will be able to grow with him. A great gift for a curious kiddo, especially if they are into helping others. Develops empathy while teaching basic first aid.

      I recently had the pleasure of introducing my child to the captivating world of STEM with the Tacto Doctor interactive kit. As a parent who values both education and play, I was thoroughly impressed by this remarkable toy set. The Tacto Doctor is not just a toy; it's an immersive learning experience that seamlessly integrates fun and education.

      Right from the moment my child opened the box, their eyes lit up with excitement. The Tacto Doctor set is beautifully designed, with vibrant colors and sturdy materials. It immediately grabbed their attention and sparked their curiosity. The kit includes a wide range of components and tools that emulate real-life medical instruments, encouraging children to explore the world of healthcare while having a blast.

      What truly sets the Tacto Doctor apart from other STEM toys is its hands-on approach. The set allows children to perform various medical procedures, such as applying bandages, using a stethoscope, and even conducting their very own "surgery." The components are designed to be safe and easy to use, ensuring a seamless experience for children of different ages. This hands-on aspect instills a sense of accomplishment and boosts their confidence as they successfully complete each task.

      Furthermore, the Tacto Doctor promotes critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As a parent, I also appreciate the educational value of the Tacto Doctor set. It introduces children to various scientific concepts, anatomy, and healthcare terminology in an engaging and accessible manner.

      Doesn’t work
      Great idea and would be so wonderful if the pieces would actually work when you put them to the screen. They have the syringe that requires you to pull up and push down but do not allow enough room for that to actually happen. Most pieces won’t respond when out on the screen till the millionth time trying if at all. We have reset the game multiple times to reload /upload each individual piece and still the same results. Makes the kids frustrated and waste my time as a parent trying to help them!!! I missed the rerun window for this game I highly recommend they work out the bugs on this thing! Very disappointing!

      This is a pretty cute toy. You use the doctor tools provided to set them on a table to interact with a downloaded app. The app is free after you purchase the toy.

      My 4-year-old sometimes had difficulty getting the tools to "respond" with the app, but we helped him a few times, and he is better about getting it to work.

      The stories in the app are very cute and educational! They actually help the user learn about medicine, injuries, parts of the body, and anatomy! It introduces some new and advanced vocabulary words that are pretty cool.

      Overall, I think some improvements could be made, but the toy is educational, fun, and interactive!

      Our Tacto chess arrived last weekend and I’m even more impressed than I expected to be. The figurines are a really good size for little hands and seem very well made. The app actually teaches the child how to play chess so no parental knowledge is needed - this was brilliant for me. The themes are great for making the game child friendly. My little one isn’t actually 6 yet and still enjoyed playing it. The only thing to keep in mind for younger children is that there is a little bit of reading, for example ‘your king will be checked’ but I wouldn’t let this put you off getting the app if your child is less than 6. I’m already looking to see which app to get next!

      I am so happy with this purchase. My 10 year old knew a little about chess and my 7 year old knew nothing. This was a great game that explains all the rules (no parent knowledge needed) and you can play games with the computer or another person. What I love is that when you pick a piece to move, it shows the potential ways you can move. Would purchase again!

      INSTANT OBSESSION for my 5 year old and 2 year old! 🤩
      This game is the BEST interactive game that I’ve ever seen! The storyline is fun and straightforward. It takes my children into the world of Sunnyville where they can learn the names of figurines, practice simple medicine, discover health tips, exercise eye-hand coordination, and follow instructions.
      The app is easy to navigate for small children. The app installation and figurine registration were straightforward. However, it does take some time for the initial setup. It also allows us to register individual profile for each of our children. And select the education level accordingly.
