While being mostly traditional in substance and style, its use of stylus and internet play makes the old feel pretty new. [JPN Import; June 2006, p.30]- NGC Magazine UK

- Critic Score
Half of it is flashy, imposing and slightly annoying. The other half demands your blood, sweat and tears. [June 2006, p.48]- NGC Magazine UK

Like nothing you've ever played before and, for that reason, a great talking point in the pub. Plus, it's good for you. [June 2006, p.40]- NGC Magazine UK

Persistence is one thing that Magical Melody does reward - both materially and spiritually. [June 2006, p.22]- NGC Magazine UK

It's not going to offer you the strategic wonder of "Advance Wars," but with its refreshing silliness (we like the scouse worms best) and turn-based carnage, it remains an oddball tactical treat, and a reminder that, in these days of incredible technical advances, sometimes good game design is all you need. [Apr 2006, p.30]- NGC Magazine UK

If you're one of the many who rarely got to play multiplayer "Tetris," you'll love this. It's a thing of beauty. [May 2006, p.52]- NGC Magazine UK

- Critic Score
This is easily equatable with PC shooters or even classics like "GoldenEye." [May 2006, p.22]- NGC Magazine UK
-
- Critic Score
Immediately compelling and addictive but only short-term. It's enjoyable but there are already better options on DS. [May 2006, p.48]- NGC Magazine UK
-
- Critic Score
It's terribly unforgiving; the early battles - and there are plenty of random encounters as you wander around the game world - can be tough as nails, and the enjoyment of simply exploring is often spoilt by yet another scuffle with Bugbears or Giant Bees. [May 2006, p.33]- NGC Magazine UK

- Critic Score
Fast, furious and frustrating, this Sonic is full of spectacle but sadly lacking in subtlety. [Apr 2006, p.24]- NGC Magazine UK
-
- Critic Score
It's all over pretty quickly and there isn't much in teh way of extras, but Drill Dozer's a little beauty all the same. And not a Pokemon in sight. [Apr 2006, p.45]- NGC Magazine UK

If you buy into the weirdness and air of wonder you'll find this as soothing as it is soulful. [May 2006, p.34]- NGC Magazine UK

The ultimate Animal Crossing: despite its familiarity, this retains the ability to charm your socks off. [Apr 2006, p.34]- NGC Magazine UK
-
- Critic Score
Sadly, the game loses its way in the later levels, devolving into overly difficult and repetitive combat. [May 2006, p.48]- NGC Magazine UK

- Critic Score
Wackier than Ally McBeal, but in a good way. Addictive and amusing lawyerly hi-jinks. [Apr 2006, p.38]- NGC Magazine UK

- Critic Score
Original, clever, cute, frustrating, too bloody hard and slavishly linear. Love and hate wrapped up in one antiseptic pack. [Apr 2006, p.32]- NGC Magazine UK
