  1. Despite some difficulty spikes, Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? is a welcome addition to the booming collection of Xbox 360 trivia games.
  2. 50
    Though it ultimately fails, it doesn't seem as if this was a game just thrown together. Work was put into 5th Grader, but it falls short of other quiz games on Xbox 360. If you're truly smarter than a fith grader, you'll pass on this game.
  3. If you and/or your kid love the show enough to tolerate all that…you should still stick with the infinitely superior XBLA game Wits & Wagers.

    Well-made and well-presented, but there's not nearly 1,200 points worth of game in there. [Jan 2009, p.104]

    Not a bad game at all. It's expensive for an XBLA game but it looks like a boxed game so still ends up a bargain. Played it with myNot a bad game at all. It's expensive for an XBLA game but it looks like a boxed game so still ends up a bargain. Played it with my wife and daughter and they loved it. That's my favourite thing about the game, it's a great family title, a first for XBLA and about time. Full Review »

    Jeff Foxworthy looks like a zombie with his dead, lifeless (non-animated) eyes.
