does anyone know the intended age range of Aspyr's edu-tainment game Otto Matic?

I can't find it on a web-site and I am wondering if it is appropriate / usable for a 4/5 year old.

Thanks in advance.

It sure does look like it.

That web-page also doesn't mention suggested age ranges. :-(

I have since had a look at the aspyr site and there is a little more info from pangeas page.

Generally the pangea games are suitable for kids of all ages, although nanosaur did involve destroying dinosaurs.

There is a demo you could try
