    Save your sesterces for something else. [Dec 2008, p.80]

    There are a couple of neat features in Enchanted Folk, but it gets too bogged down with boring activities and doesn't make enough of its magic theme. [June 2009, p.66]

    The map-making function is a stroke of genius, but this curious title is neither big nor clever enough to steal our heart. [July 2009, p.75]

    Cripes, there's a lot of rules and regulations to take in here. [Aug 2007, p.70]

    No shortage of ideas makes this one of the better licensed titles, but its schizophrenic nature disguises sloppy gameplay. [Oct 2007, p.68]

    • 70 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Could and should have been a lot better, if only it wasn't crippled by technical letdowns and questionable design choices. [Mar 2008, p.58]

    This version offers nothing that regular puzzle-players won't have seen before, bar some cute animation. [July 2008, p.73]

    Hardly an epic tournament, but if you've exhausted Smash Bros or Punch-Out!! you could do worse than try this. [Aug 2010, p.62]

    Despite having all the components for a promising game, this is a complete disappointment. [Feb 2008, p.65]

    Not the greatest basketball game, especially if you take the sport seriously. You're best sticking wtih football on Wii. [Dec 2008, p.68]

    A lovely bit of fan service. [Jan 2010, p.75]

    It seems that even the future has minigames, but even the future can't convince us that there's any serious alternative to the Wii Sports games.
    • 65 Metascore

    The genre's as old as the hills, and moust pointer to remote pointer is hardly a great leap. [July 2008, p.59]

    • tbd Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Genuinely fresh ideas don't come along very often, but this odd strategy title feels flabby and undercooked. [Jan 2012, p.123]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 41 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    The action's limited but still amusing, and the music is truly late '60s fabulous. [Sept 2008, p.71]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 68 Metascore
    • 63 Critic Score
    Nifty use of the pointer like nobody's business, but the WiiConnect24 stuff is deeply uninspired. [Sept 2007, p.44]

    • 63 Critic Score
    It doesn't take long for things to get repetitive, but if you don't find this a problem there's certainly plenty to do, with side quests to access and itmes to collect. [Issue#56, p.70]

    It's no Layton, but puzzle-fiends might find it's worth a try of it's spotted cheap. [Aug 2010, p.72]

    A laudably unique twist on tower defence, but strategy soon devolves into a series of repetitive fights. [Apr 2012, p.109]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 61 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    It's too easy, too repetitive, and worst of all, doesn't have that classic Butch Harman sense of humour. [Apr 2007, p.70]

    No beaming down to alien planets filled with beautiful ladies/porridge monsters, though. [Feb 2007, p.82]

    Better puzzles and a little polish are needed. [June 2011, p.65]

    Better than average film tie-in. [Christmas 2009, p.70]

    Pokemon. With dinosaurs. Not the most imaginative idea and there's not a lot to it, but Fossil Fighters will scratch that pet-battling itch. [Nov 2009, p.71]

    Feels more like a budget release. [Jan 2010, p.75]

    The Force Unleashed does a good job of, er, unleashing the force, but beneath the flashy powers and lightsabers this is a tame and outdated game. [Issue#56, p.67]
    • Nintendo Gamer
    • 60 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    A nice idea, and a solid story, undermined by a predictable structure and low-budget feel. [Christmas 2011, p.73]

    • 57 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    It's going to sell by the bucket-load to the younger fans of the film, and most of them will find it a diverting enough adventure. Just a shame that it throws away such a knowing premise.

    • 62 Critic Score
    There's no logic to any of the celebrity characters apart from having a cheap laugh at people currently in the public eye. Jack Black? Schwarzenegger? Why not jam Mika or Gail Trimble in there?
    • 74 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    Fiddly controls. [Christmas 2010, p.72]
