Product Description
Listen up and be quick as you flick, slide or shoot the different-colored hyper discs under the arch! As the game unit calls out the sequence of colors for you to "pass" the game knows if you’ve passed the right disc or not! You score, quick, go for more! Pass'em fast before the buzzer blasts! Obey the voice commands, get your brain in the game and break the code, or guess which color will be called next! Play with a friend or practice solo with the Hyper Band, when you slide the discs under the arch, discs bounce off the band and come back towards you!
Be quick, pick the right colored hyper disc, and flick it under the arch before time runs out. The Hyper Slide from Hasbro packs three fast-paced electronic table-top games into one compact unit. Recommended for ages eight and up, these fast-sliding games for one or two players are fun and exciting for kids and adults.
 The hyper discs can be conveniently stored in a compartment on the side of the arch. View larger. |

With its sleek, arched design, Hyper Slide looks like a futuristic game. Resembling a hockey game for a table top, the object is to flip the pucks through the goal. However, in these games the goal can be scored from both sides of the arch, and there are four different-colored pucks, called hyper discs. The game's electronic unit calls out a color, and you must pick that color and sent it through the arc. It automatically detects whether you've passed the right disc or not. When not in operation, the hyper discs can be conveniently stored in a compartment on the side of the arch.
Three Games for Solo Play or Two-Person Play
The Hyper Slide offers a few variations of play for your enjoyment. Two lighted buttons on the top of the Hyper Slide make it easy to choose which of the three games you want to play.
While the objects of the games are simple, playing them can be a fun challenge. The first game, "Fast Pass," is all about speed. The game commands a color and you've got to pass it through the goal quickly before the buzzer blasts. With "Add One," you've got to remember the order of colors. You start with a color and add one to the sequence each time you complete a round. "Code Buster" gives you 90 seconds to decipher the secret series of colors.
Best of all, you can play all these games with a friend or by yourself. With both "Fast Pass" and "Add One," you can even play head-to-head with another player or team. For solo play, the rubber "hyper band" is attached under the arch, bouncing the discs back to your side.
Put to the Test
Playing on any smooth, nonmetal surface, you'll be surprised how much fun the Hyper Slide really is. An announcer's voice, high-energy music, and sound effects move these games along. With your head in the game, you'll soon block out all the noise and only hear the color to flick, slide, or shoot through the arch. Unfortunately, if the constant voice directions are not your thing, the game can't be played without these sounds, nor can the volume be adjusted. On the plus side, the Hyper Slide announces your score at the end of each competition and keeps track of the highest score for each game. This electronic system runs on three "AAA" batteries (sold separately). If the Hyper Slide goes unused for two minutes, this smartly designed toy "goes to sleep," saving battery life until the player buttons are pressed.

Customer Reviews:
Fun game!
Hyperslide is quite fun for adults and kids alike. If I had to change anything, I'd add one setting where it allows you to take as much time as you need to make a designated number of passes. Hyper dash does that and I find it very useful with younger kids or differently-abled students.
Hyper Slide the fast passn' action game
Hasbro Electronic Hyper Slide
Hyper Slide is total FUN! It's the ideal game for camping, lounging around at home or as a way to pass time on an outing.
This game helps you to concentrate, listen, and react as quickly as you can to get the discs through. It has three different game challenges that allow you to choose your comfort zone.
Hyper slide does not give you a lot of time to chat and converse--the object of the game is speed and concentration. If your children need to improve their listening and attention skills this is a must have for them. They will have to concentrate and listen to WIN!
If you want a game that you can enjoy with your kids but does not require a lot of "brain work" then this is the game for you. You can play it on a table or on the floor and it can easily fit in your bag.
Grandparents will even enjoy playing this game. Need I say more?

More fun than I thought!
I had seen advertisements on TV about this game--but I didn't think it looked like it would be that much fun. However, after reading the positive reviews here I thought I would buy it for my son's birthday. It actually is a lot of fun. Plus, I can actually win more often than not. Normally winning isn't that important--but since I lose to my son when we play video games--it's nice to have a game that helps me regain some respect!
great for one or two of any age
For people who enjoy memory games, hyper slide is as much fun for children as teens or adults. Anyone who likes to challenge him or herself on remembering patterns or figuring out patterns will like playing. On the upside, it can be played with one player for when your 11 year old wants to play and an opponent isn't available. On the downside, the 'voice' is pretty loud and you can't control the volume so it's not conducive to playing in the same room as someone doing homework!
Quick fun game
Base houses small pieces so I just have to toss the unit in the closet without worrying where the pieces went. Fun for all ages.
