What’s Hyper Dash?
A lightning fast challenge of speed, accuracy and agility!
Hyper Dash™ is the new game from Wild Planet Entertainment that gets your kids out of the house and on their feet!
It’s a new active game designed to give kids a fresh and lively alternative to sedentary entertainment. The game is physically and mentally engaging; it promotes listening, memory, math and coordination skills, and more importantly, it’s lots of fun!
How to Play Hyper Dash
The award-winning game is made up of one electronic tagger and five different colored and numbered targets. The tagger plays pre-recorded music and calls out which targets you need to strike. It tracks the amount of time taken to complete each course.
Hyper Dash can be played indoors or outdoors; solo, in pairs, or in teams. Parents vs. Kids is an entertaining option. Cooperative siblings can work together to beat their best time, while more competitive kids prefer the head-to-head mode.
Hyper Dash Uses RFID Technology
The tagger uses radio frequency identification (RFID) to recognize the targets, which can be set up side-by-side, or spread out across the length of a football field. There’s no limit to the distance between targets. Farther targets result in more running and exercise.
Hyper Dash Grows With You!
As your speed, skill and agility improve, the series of commands becomes longer and more challenging. Level one calls out the colors you need to tag, level two includes numbers, level three adds special commands (Double Strike, Triple Strike, Reverse, Double Reverse) and level four features Compu-Strike (addition/subtraction problems in which you tag the sum or difference of the numbers called out).
Other play modes include the memory game of Micro Dash and multi-player relay races that promote teamwork. For a game of Hide ‘n’ Dash, let your opponent hide the targets before you begin. Every game has encouraging cheers and upbeat music to keep kids on their feet, expending energy and having fun.
Hyper dash is a great game!! My friends bought me this for my birthday and I loved it straight away

Hi,
I saw your Hyper Dash in Parents Magazine and I would like to know if we can find it in Canada (I leave near Montréal Province of Quebec) Also, I want to know if you have to know English (is there a lot of words in English) to play.
Thanks a lot.

I just bought the game (@ Toys R Us Culver City) and already lost the directions. Could you please email them to me? We’re excited to get started with this great new game. We have grandchildren of all ages up to nine, so this seems perfect.
Thank you,
Jo Furman

Does this come in Spanish? We work in Mexico!
Comment by Deborah Kramer — December 11, 2007 @ 7:14 am
Yes! Hyper Dash is available in Spanish in Mexican stores.
It is available in English in Canada, and it is helpful to know English to play.

I face my friends all the time.I am the one that wins most of the time.After evey round I switch the targets to some place else,and it gets challenging.If you read this message,try changing the targets.It brings more excitment in the game.If you do then awesome!

Hyper Dash is one of the best games that I have found yet. I teach kindergarten and run after school clubs. I use Hyper Dash in my classroom as a reward as well as an added opportunity for exercise! They absolutely love the game. The older kids in my clubs love to play it just as much as the younger children. I think we bought about 5 sets of the game for our school! My only complaint is that the color green is a not a true green, it is more like a chartreuse. It is somewhat hard for the younger kids to distinguish the difference. It would be great if it was a christmas green instead!

I can’t find anywhere that says how to shut the units off. I assume they go off automatically.
The kids love this game.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Yes, Hyper Dash does switch itself automatically when not in use. Thanks for the question!

I want to have four teams of 4 or 5 people racing against each other at the same time with the group that wins getting annotated in the winning unit. Is there a hyper dash that does this or something like it?

I have just opened up this game and my blue cup does not activate the game. Is there something I can do to make the hand held recognize the blue cup. It recognizes all the other colors except blue (thereby rendering the game unusable.
