    It's got a few problems in the area of unnecessary repetition, some flow-breaking load screens, some pointless mini-games and some over-baked dialog, but overall the presentation is a cut above most Wii games, the monster-building mechanic incredibly deep and the turn-based battle system enjoyable.

    Maybe a must-own for Tim Burton fans, but definitely a rental for everyone else. [Holiday 2008, p.88]
  3. Collecting and combining ingredients to make better monster parts is not only essential to progression, it is also fun and incredibly addictive.
