    Good enough for an afternoon (I started and finished it this way), and almost good enough to be classic, if only it had a few more gameplay options. It doesn't try to be anything more than a quick review of the movie, but the gameplay is great puzzle stuff, and at times reminds me of the Oddword games.

It doesn't try to be anything more than a quick review of the movie, but the gameplay is great puzzle stuff, and at times reminds me of the Oddword games. You control Wall-E in 8 of 14 levels, crunching and chucking waste to activate switches and blast enemies. The levels are fun and varied. Unfortunately the other 6 levels are interchangeable wastes of time where you navigate Eve up, down, left and right to avoid oncoming obstacles. All this game needs is a few polishes -- some more levels and a level editor would be enough, even. As it stands, a not-too-wasteful purchase that neither I nor my son want to play a second time.

    A pretty lackluster puzzle plat-former. I got this game for Christmas many years ago and I still remember the frustration I felt for failing on level 1. When I dreamed of playing a Wall-E video game after watching the credits sequence, I was hoping for a smoother experience. I love the movie and I love DS games. But I was expecting to at least feel some amount of joy while playing thisA pretty lackluster puzzle plat-former.

But I was expecting to at least feel some amount of joy while playing this game.

    The only part I found enjoyable were the cutscenes, reflecting key moments from the movie. But setting that aside this entire game is just tedious puzzles where Wall-E travels via explosion and somehow doesn't take any damage. And when you're not doing that, you're participating in flying segments as Eva where there's way too much to dodge. Oh I'm sorry? You wanted to enjoy this high speed section? Well good luck with that! There's not a hint of music in this game and its just packed with cramp level design!

    I've played worse on the DS, but like the stealth levels from Yu-Gi-Oh Stardust Accelerator. All I experience is frustration.

    It's a fun little puzzle game that matches the simplistic charm of Pixar's metallic critter.
  2. The puzzles aren't too difficult to figure out, but the title is perfectly geared to younger players, and is definitely the highlight of the bunch.
  3. Overall, WALL•E for the DS is perfect game for those younger and somewhat experienced gamers who loved the WALL•E movie and own a DS.
