    I played this game as a kid back in 2009. At the time I was only 8 years old and couldn't tell you the difference between a good and a bad game. Random terrible mobile games were just as fun to me as actually good games, like Mario Galaxy and Legend of Zelda. Even with all this I could still tell this game was god awful. I used to be a big fan of the online game Jumpstart back then, wouldI played this game as a kid back in 2009.

Random terrible mobile games were just as fun to me as actually good games, like Mario Galaxy and Legend of Zelda. Even with all this I could still tell this game was god awful. I used to be a big fan of the online game Jumpstart back then, would play it with my friends all the time. When I heard about there being a game for the Wii like it I was ecstatic and begged my mom to get it. Imagine my shock when I first start playing it and immediately die of boredom. There is nothing fun about this game, the only redeeming quality is that seeing it reminded me of fun experiences in my childhood, like raising pet aliens, flying on dragons, crafting potions, or shooting myself out of a cannon for cash in the online game.

    Don't buy this unless you are looking to torture yourself, if you buy this for your child they will hate you forever.

    Edit: this inspired me to check out jumpstart online. All the servers are shut down. I'm sad.    … Expand

    It is fun, educational and entertaining. Yes, there are some flaws, but they are not serious enough to fail this game.

    Sure, it didn't make Spike's VGA list, but Escape from Adventure Island is a hit with its target audience. Rest assured, your 5-9 year old will enjoy the game - and the learning.

    Like all of the Jump Start products, Escape From Adventure Island is a quality product that would be a welcome addition to any family’s library of Wii games.
