    A surprisingly strong game that does so many of the fundamental things right. Smooth, colorful graphics, a respectable score, a working camera (I can't stress this enough), and a 15-20 hour action-adventure quest are good points for which almost any game should strive.

    The complete adventure package and then some, and it's not as sticky-sweet as you might think. [Jan 2006, p.48]

    If you’re a fan of Neopets you will like this game.

    Older gamers will likely get bored with the repetitive gameplay that is seemingly void of any overarching sense of achievement. Younger fans will probably have fun going through the world, collecting items and seeing their favorite Neopets.

The plot is not the most complex of things, but it is intriguing nevertheless, especially in how the two main characters stories intertwine. There is much land to explore with fun side quests and treasures to find. The enemies prove challenging but not overly so and the main quests are fun and unique to the game.… Full Review »

    It's a bit too simple and easy to play this game and the loading time is too long

    This is one of those games at first sight I thought I would not like it, but once I tried it, it turned out to be a great and entertaining game.
