    Just like Peggle, Save The Turtles scores big thanks to its friendly presentation, cute visuals and addictive gameplay. In my books, this hidden gem is a no-brainer if you’re looking for a great game to invest your Nintendo Points in.

    For a mere 500 points, this is well worth digging into.

    Featuring addictive gameplay illustrating the dangers facing endangered sea turtles, the only bad thing is that you're not actually helping to save real turtles by playing it.

    Altogether, an excellent DSiWare debut for developer Sabarasa.

    It's no classic, but if you like your puzzles cute and cuddly you could do a lot worse. [July 2010, p.93]
