It looks good and offers some solid thrills. [July 2010, p.94]

A lovable and well-designed puzzle platformer that offers serious value for money. [July 2010, p.91]

Great fun - if you find the idea of rolling ten-foot boulders up a hill fun. [Aug 2010, p.99]

An astonishing technical achievement, and a cracking full debut for the series on Wii. [May 2010, p.57]

Props to EA for delivering a solid, entertaining game. Top of the class. [July 2010, p.92]

We couldn't even play the Super Mario Bros. theme, and if you can't do that then there's no point. [Feb 2010, p.83]

A solid strategy offering, but one that's not particularly accessible. [May 2010, p.90]

Awful. [June 2010, p.97]

It does as much as it could with a genre that's older than most people reading this. [June 2010, p.96]

An essential purchase at a great price. As long as you don't own Drill Spirits, this is superb. [June 2010, p.94]

Flawed, but this is a unique, rewarding experience. [Apr 2010, p.85]

A great expansion for the DS game. [June 2010, p.94]

Fun for five minutes, but too samey. [June 2010, p.97]

It's no classic, but if you like your puzzles cute and cuddly you could do a lot worse. [July 2010, p.93]

It's slow, it's easy and it's repetitive. [Oct 2010, p.96]

For anyone interested in game or music design, this lets you be creative in a new way. Superb. [May 2010, p.78]

It's not perfect, but it's a highly enjoyable, unique twist on first person action gaming.

Fun, but limited. [June 2010, p.88]

Libera Wing didn't just fall out of the ugly tree, it landed on an ugly trampoline and bounced into the centre of Uglytown. [June 2010, p.97]

It handles well, it looks decent, but there's not an awful lot for you to do here. [Oct 2010, p.96]

The virtual pet aspect is a waste of time. [Oct 2010, p.91]

A massive handheld RPG crafted with incredible attention to detail and a real sense of fun. [Apr 2010, p.86]

Its flaws hint at the game it could have been. As it is, it's a raggedy curiosity well worth checking out.

There's not a huge amount of content, the handling a little wobbly at times, and the tracks tend to get very familiar. [May 2010, p.85]

A good value Punch-Out! clone. [June 2010, p.95]

It's no Chinatown Wars but retro gamers will enjoy spotting the stolen GTA features. [May 2010, p.90]

It may not be too revolutionary but this is by far the biggest, most packed Pokemon yet. [Mar 2010, p.67]

It may not be too revolutionary but this is by far the biggest, most packed Pokemon yet. [Mar 2010, p.67]

Mind-numbingly boring. This is one call you should definitely send to answer phone.

The increased precision of Wii MotionPlus is wasted and the result is a game you should steer clear of. [May 2010, p.85]

Charming, clever and compelling all at once, this game does everything right.

A fun, old-school romp but it quickly gets samey. Stick to Castlevania! [May 2010, p.90]

Freedom and individuality. [Apr 2010, p.89]

It doesn't pack much of a punch, but this is a beautifully crafted, imaginative platformer.

It's not a great port and we'd have liked more content, but the quality gameplay shines through.

Lumpy handling. [June 2010, p.91]

Lumpy handling. [June 2010, p.91]

It's just whack-a-mole but it does as much as you'd hope with something so limited. [Mar 2010, p.95]

Unforgiving. [Apr 2010, p.95]

We'd much rather sit down with the actual book, but there are some nice ideas here. [Apr 2010, p.94]

One of the toughest Mega Man games yet. A great download for hardcore retroheads. [May 2010, p.86]

The whole thing gets repetitive very quickly. [May 2010, p.91]

With no multiplayer it is rather pointless. [July 2010, p.94]

Good fun but lacking the polish that makes Mario Kart Wii the definitive kart racer. [Mar 2010, p.76]

A good kart racer with plenty of content. A solid, if inferior, alternative to Mario Kart DS. [Mar 2010, p.84]

Succeeds in offering something genuinely different, but it's still snooze-inducing.

It's a laugh for a while but gets old quickly. [June 2010, p.97]

Hugely addictive, but that price is nothing short of scandalous. [Apr 2010, p.92]

Top marks for effort, but Art Style: KuBos does isometric platforming better. [July 2010, p.94]

The kick up the backside the series needed. It's a little low on laughs but great fun nonetheless.

We still balk at the effort here, but this remains a good DS game for under a tenner. [Apr 2010, p.91]

Offers hours of fun brain-bending gameplay. [June 2010, p.94]

It gets hard quickly but should keep you entertained. [June 2010, p.97]

A horrible platformer. [Sept 2010, p.96]

Step & Roll is a happy effort that proves more enjoyable when you ignore the Balance Board, in the single player mode at least. There's enough new stuff in here to keep long-time fans amused, with the multiplayer and mini-game modes being the standout features, as ever. A chimp off the old block.

The daftest game on WiiWare by far and easily one of the best. Great for the pirce. [Mar 2010, p.92]

Frustrating movements. [June 2010, p.97]

Unashamedly old-school, this puts gameplay fairly ahead of gloss. [Aug 2010, p.96]

The controls are hideous. [July 2010, p.95]

Get Starship Patrol instead. [Aug 2010, p.98]

A horrible, cheap, nasty game that could have been put together in an afternoon. [Sept 2010, p.97]

It looks cute and sounds great, but it takes too long to grasp its mechanics. [Oct 2010, p.93]

A great idea but the DSi camera isn't quite sensitive enough to make it work perfectly. [Mar 2010, p.95]

Great for single-players. [Jan 2010, p.81]

Far too easy to complete. [Apr 2010, p.95]

A decent conclusion to a fantastic series. [Apr 2010, p.92]

A decent enough compilation. [Oct 2010, p.97]

One of the most stylish, offensive games on the Wii. [May 2010, p.63]

A fantastic fighting game which appears basic at first but has a very deep technical side to it.

A pleasant surprise, this should appeal to fans of strategy and board games. [Nov 2009, p.104]

A decent take on the popular card game, but its lack of privacy defeats the purpose. [Jan 2010, p.86]

There's not much depth here, but for just 200 Points, this is a decent time waster. [June 2010, p.96]

Thanks to some lazy localisation and poor design choices, this is nearly unplayable. [Apr 2010, p.95]

A great strategy game that makes up for basic graphics with addictive gameplay. [Mar 2010, p.90]

It's cute, it's harmless and kids will enjoy it but it's never going to change the world. [Mar 2010, p.95]

If this had been a real NES game back in the day, it'd have been one of the best. [May 2010, p.88]

It's wacky and fun but the unresponsive gameplay doesn't justify the price tag. [May 2010, p.89]

If you must have this game, this is the version to get. [July 2010, p.95]

It's not perfect but this is a breathless, enjoyable dogfighter. [Apr 2010, p.76]

A no-frills DSi take on Solitaire. It works fine but we want a bit more from a DSiWare game. [Dec 2009, p.98]

It's nothing new, but it's still a fun story for less than half the price of the DS version.

A neat puzzle game with a surprisingly entertaining multiplayer mode. [Christmas 2009, p.101]

It's not much to look at but Reflect Missile is one of the finest DSi games available. [Jan 2010, p.83]

Gordon. We like you. But please don't attach your likeness to a game ever again. [Feb 2010, p.89]

It's rubbish fun. [Mar 2010, p.94]

Too basic. [July 2010, p.95]

Cute, but not worth it. [Oct 2010, p.97]

A blatant cash-in on Rabbids Go Home. [Jan 2010, p.87]

For a game that's so starved of content, 1,000 Points is a bit hard to swallow. [Feb 2010, p.89]

Not quite as epic as Rondo of Blood but still a great new/old addition to the series. [May 2010, p.88]

Traditional RPG fans might be put off but everyone else will find lots to enjoy. [Feb 2010, p.76]

Perhaps the lowest example of not knowing when to give up. [Apr 2010, p.89]

Virtually identical to the WiiWare version with the added bonus of not letting other players see your cards. [Jan 2010, p.87]

Decent enough, but the price stops us from fully endorsing this one. [Feb 2010, p.85]

A huge disappointment. [Apr 2010, p.92]

A fine follow-up that does everything the original did and much more besides. [Mar 2010, p.91]

A nice bit of nostalgia for oldies, but doesn't quite have the same playability these days. [Mar 2010, p.93]

Does about as much as you'd hope a notebook on the DSi could do. Fair enough. [Jan 2010, p.85]
