4 out of 5 stars Fun for kids!   May 17, 2010

Bought this for my daughter who is really into animals and is sure she wants to be a vet. Find her playing with her sister or just enjoying on her own a lot. She really has had lots of fun with this game. Not a lot of levels, so once you have done everything once, then there is not a lot to add, but still seems worth the price.

I'm 13 years old and I just finished "Vet Life". I thought it was fun overall. You get to see what kind of cases you may encounter as a real vet. You get to help all kinds of animals, from dogs to orangutans. I agree with the other reviews when they say that the grading is unfair sometimes. Some of the actions you have to do can be unclear or just plain hard and can bring your grade down. Also, the game feels repetative sometimes, such as delivering babies. It seems the same every time.The game isn't very long either. It took me only 4 days to finish. It was about 5 hours long altogether. I would've liked it to be longer. Overall, i enjoyed this game. If you like animals and/or want to work with them when you grow up I would reccomend this to you.

My 11 year old daughter loves animals, science, and wants to become a vet. This game seemed like a perfect gift. The game itself is great, however, the player is "graded" on their "vet skills" and then given an overall letter grade on the case. My daughter became so flustered and upset with receiving a B- or C+. I feel that the letter grades and being rated either "sloppy" or "good" on skills is most inappropriate for a game-a real teaching course yes, but not a game. I disapprove of the skills rating and the individual cases given letter grades.

My daughter is nearly 13 and wants to be a vet someday. While this game doesn't give you a pre-vet degree during play, it is a fun way to experience what cases a vet may be presented with! The game starts with simple domestic animal cases such as taking care of a dog who was on the receiving end of a skunk spray, and progresses to harder cases and more exotic animals as the player gains experience. Where else can a 12 year old perform brain surgery on a cat?! The graphics are ok..similar to Pet Sports. Not too realistic though..in other words, don't fear that your child is going to see oozing blood, they avoid showing any.
Even my 14 year old wanted to play this...they played it for 6 hours the first day! Only complaint is that the controls don't seem to always give the accuracy you need to get an "awesome" rating for some tasks.
