    It's unusual to see such hand-holding near the end of a game. Still, Spacelings kept my interest, right to the final levels, with it's tractor-beaming action.

    While the level design was good, it never left us searching for a solution for long, making it a nice option for younger gamers who may struggle with complex designs and tricky solutions in other offerings.

    But the lack of crispness in the controls undermines everything else here, and too often does the same to the player.

    A nice try, with some good ideas, but Spacelings has too many problems to make it a must buy.
