    Not really all that easy to use, and not very enjoyable. Some of the movements are counterintuitive, and too challenging for young children. Not worth the effort to learn.

    This game wasn't worth it. We all had trouble playing and accomplishing the games. There were a few tasks that were easy but in most cases the play was horrible and frustrating. Wouldn't buy it.

    Do you know what it looks like when someone's self-aware of how bad their game is?

    Say the game is great in the title! Honestly, this is an atrocity of the worst kind. Besides the hilariously awful Player Select (where every time you move your cursor over a save, the kid says, "I'll save here", so if you flail your remote wildly, all you hear is, I'll-I-I'll-I'll s-I'll    Do you know what it looks like when someone's self-aware of how bad their game is?

Everything's so bland and uninteresting.

    Just another shovelware Wii game meant to cash in on the motion controls.    … Expand

    really fun as a kid, pretty boring as a teenager. I used to love playing this game with my family but now most of it feels effortless and wonky. If your looking for a fun family game, there's a lot better but you can go ahead and get it if you want, but as a teenager by myself its really boring and un-fun.

    Aggressively mediocre party game at best. Very unoriginal and the controls are unresponsive and frustrating. We got it for 5 bucks and it still wasn't really worth it

    Amazing game, i almost died of laughter because of how bad it is. Play it when you are high on LSD.

    Although you will wonder why Log Cutting is a family game, you’ll have too much fun to really care. If you don’t have anyone to play with, then the fun in this game will quickly diminish, but this game will surely bring families together.

    As far as mini-games on Wii go, Family Party: 30 Great Games is an above average effort. That may not be saying much, but if you're looking for something to entertain your friends on occasion, you certainly could do a whole lot worse.

    This is one of the few compilation games that actually passes the bar, barely. I can't say that this is the one for you, but there is some fun found in this title, you just have to look.
