    The most innovative game on the xbox live arcade, and it's filled with gametypes that make it well worth the Microsoft points.

    The presentation is superb on all fronts, and the gameplay is unique and intuitive. For ten bones, this is without question a must-have.

    Coupled with more exciting levels in the latter stages of the main mode, and the thrill of hitting triple-digit scores in Loopnastics, Wik is like a web-game that grew up.
  4. AceGamez

    The inclusion of local multiplayer and leaderboards to compare your stats against other players is also an added bonus that can motivate some to keep playing until they're at the top of the list.

    The four player action and quirky storyline makes this one unique, making the downloading of this title a no-brainer for platforming fiends.
  6. GameSpot

    The main character of this cleverly designed game gets to swing around using his tongue and inhale grubs and other bugs, but it's a whole lot more pleasant than that.
  7. Xbox Evolved

    It isn’t quite the best puzzle game out there, but if you want something completely different then it might be right up your alley.

    The only thing that is really fun with this game is the multiplayer.

    120 levels of bland, repetive "puzzles"... great. Just download the trial and see for yourself.
