Duo Thomas & Friends Steam Team Station iPad Interactive Game

by 10 Comments

I was impressed with the Duo Thomas & Friends Steam Team Station iPad Interactive Game because of how easy it was to set up and it worked. The game pieces connect wirelessly with iPad for active adventures on the Island of Sodor. The only thing Miles had to wait on was I forgot my password to install games on the iPad. LOL, the game is free and the Interactive set is about $40.00.

Thomas & Friends Steam Team Station, the app-supported active play device for iPad, gets kids jumping, spinning, skipping, and racing with their engine friends. Six engine cards interact with Steam Team Station and iPad for fun-filled gameplay that gets kids up and moving. They get to choose from up to three interactive adventures that come with the free Steam Team Station game app available in the Apple App Store. The first two adventures are free. You can purchase an additional game, Seek and Find Adventure, through an in-app purchase.

As you can see the iPad fits nicely in between the two stations and the cards fit into the slot on the right side. The Steam Team Station comes with six engine cards to insert and interact with the game, and features a storage area for the cards. Steam Team Station works with all generations of iPads, and iOS version 4.3 or later. The Duo Steam Team Station is powered by three AA batteries. The package includes three AA batteries to get you started right out of the box.

We received a sample to review.

My very first video game experience was on the Arari. I LOVED playing space invaders, centipede and other games on the Atari. Now considered “old school” The Atari was once the high tech item of the day. I had to go visit my cousin, who had to go visit his other grandmother and then we were set for the day. I miss that simple fun! Well now thanks to a company known as DUO you can play Atari on the iPad.
