Review: K’NEX Thrill Rides Bionic Blast and Ride It App

KNEX Thrill Rides Bionic Blast

Back at Sweet Suite 2018 we saw the latest K’NEX Roller Coaster, the Bionic Blast. The toy, however wasn’t the star of the attraction. It was the VR viewer and app that came along with it, the Ride It app. This app lets kids and adults hop into a K’NEX Roller Coaster car and take a ride on any of the coasters that K’NEX makes, you can also make your own coasters to ride. It was something that Andrew couldn’t stop riding over and over. He loved it. So, when we got home I asked K’NEX if they would mind sending us a sample to review. They sent us one for free to build and play with. What follows are our honest opinions.

K’NEX toys are fun and challenging. This set was for ages 9-14 and in the case of my kids building abilities they definitely needed me to build the coaster. In fact, once I was “finished” I had to twist track a different way because the cars did not go the way they were supposed to go. It was a fun build but a challenging one to say the least. Once it was finished it ran pretty smoothly and you can see how it all turned out in the video below.

Review: Go Vacation for the Nintendo Switch

Our GoVacation and Nintendo Switch

Last February the family took an incredible vacation on a cruise and that came with tons of fun activities to do at a resort. We had never been to something like that before where there were so many things available for us to do. The thing is, each of the activities costs some money. There is no way we could have done everything. With the Summer coming to a close and the weather getting cooler – Soon I hope, I love Fall. Now we have a fun way to enjoy all sorts of resort activities. Well, virtually at least.

Switch GoVacation Skiing

We received a copy of the new Go Vacation game for the Nintendo Switch to play with and review. Opinions are 100% our own.

With Go Vacation you can take your family on a trip of a lifetime and do so many fun activities like Jet Ski all around a tropical island. In the game they call Jet Skis water bikes so when you first start the game and they say go to the water bikes you are supposed to find jet skis. Then you take those and start your fun by racing them around a course. You can also do all sorts of tricks as you race to earn points. Take a look at the trailer for the game below.
