great game, more than 20 interesting games in one, I like to play the game along with my kids all the time, it's our first choice now for family gaming time, highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun family game
*by A***L on January 4, 2013*

We purchased Rio several months ago. Our wii was acting up so I wanted a multiplayer game for the ps3. My kids age 8,7, and 5 really love this game. It's a series of minigames a along with quizzes if you turn them on. Their are enough games that I don't feel like I'm playing the same one every time that I play. This game is enough fun that my husband and I stayed up with our friends until 2am playing without the kids! It really is fun for the whole family!
