    I am honestly baffled that this gets nearly no attention. I mean it isn't AMAZING, but it's still a creative and overall enjoyable platformer I would recommend to anyone with a Wii, especially with the low pre-owned price of $5.00

    An honestly adorable game on the Wii that has for the longest time slipped under the radar. Main game play includes roaming 3 part stages eating everything on the screen (and breaking enemies up if they are currently too large) while gradually becoming larger and larger to the point the stages size in comparison becomes humorous.

Main game play includes roaming 3 part stages eating everything on the screen (and breaking enemies up if they are currently too large) while gradually becoming larger and larger to the point the stages size in comparison becomes humorous. Edible enemies are charmingly designed and variable in the foods and theme of the level they are based on. The soundtrack is also rather unique to the series. While not a triple A title, if you're up for something cute and different, give The Munchables a shot.… Expand

    Shame that this game gets so little attention. I'd definitely consider it a hidden gem on the Wii. It's simple fun as you romp through levels eating everything in sight. There's collectibles in the form of acorns that unlock customization items, which are a neat addition, though they can easily be ignored if you aren't interested in the cosmetics.

    Just dumb fun. There's nothing more to really add just a game that's dumb fun. There's something oddly intriguing about the absurdity of it all.

    Great game that may show bland level-design from time to time, but pours personality and creativity from many of its concepts. Dumb, delicious fun to this day!

    While the game's play control system can be a tad loose in feel at times, the overall experience is still solid and proves that you don't have to have a lot of bells and whistles in your play control design to make an involving and enjoyable game.

    The Munchables is one those games that you know is silly, and you'll feel guilty for playing it, yet you can't help but love it. With a $30 price tag, you can't go wrong picking this up.
