    Compared to other WiiWare games, however, it is a different story, and the game's uninteresting, uninspired gameplay and mediocre presentation definitely places it in the "not worth trying" category.

    The bottom line is Critter Round-Up packs a lot of fun into a short period of time.
  3. GameSpot

    At 1,000 Wii points ($10), Critter Round-Up is a good choice for light puzzle action and wacky multiplayer fun.

    Older and more seasoned players, however (along with PETA members), can safely abstain from this simple critter-caging diversion.

    Critter Round-Up has its charms, but there's not quite enough here to justify the $10 price tag.

    A teeth-grindingly stupid premise belies a few okay gameplay ideas. [Aug 2008, p.75]

    The simple fact of the matter is that this game is just too sluggish and doesn't offer up enough gameplay variety to keep most people's interest for more than a few minutes.

    There's nothing terribly wrong with all this in theory, but the game's shocking lack of polish makes even this rudimentary gameplay a real chore to get through.
