Hugely enjoyable, if a touch short, but with enough replay value and atmosphere to make it work really well. [Oct 2007, p.88]

A poker game where you start off 600 Points down and can't win it back. Fail. [Nov 2009, p.104]

This was an iPhone game and the controls can be fiddly. You might put up with that in multiplayer but not during a bombardment...

Undemanding fun in short bursts but very shallow and repetitive.

Worth a go if you fancy something a bit different, but don't expect any huge thrills. [Nov 2008, p.101]

It's not terrible, just awkward. [Oct 2009, p.84]

As a basic tennis sim this does a perfectly adequate job. Ignore the more-trouble-than-it's-worth touch screen control system and it plays fine. It's just a pity there's so little to do. [Jan 2007, p.78]

This offers some very poor football action with frustrating, nonsensical gameplay and awful visuals. [May 2008, p.94]

This really isn't worth the money. [Mar 2009, p.89]

Gory, gruesome fun but not a game to bust out next time gran comes round for a Wii session. [Apr 2009, p.76]

A botched attempt at survival horror, but not a bad little shooter, nonetheless. Wait for an eShop sale, perhaps. [Sept 2014, p.90]

Great fun for a few hours, but after that you'll have more or less seen it all. [Apr 2011, p.96]

On DSi it looks really poor, while the music sounds like the sort of thing you'd hear when put on hold. [May 2012, p.104]

Great execution, but lacking in ideas. Avoid thumb cramp and take your money elsewhere. [June 2010, p.84]

There are glimmers of promise in the 3DS version, but the execution is so bad and the graphics engine so lacklustre, that you'll find it hard to squeeze more than a few drops of genuine pleasure out of this cold, grey stone. [Sept 2012, p.107]

The original's good ideas are distorted in an apparent attempt to justify a price tag. [Nov 2012, p.98]

A great idea in theory but in practice it's just not as much fun being the good guy.

It's scrappy, inconsistent and boasts over-used motion controls, but there is some fun to be had here. [Aug 2009, p.86]

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

It's suffering from similar feelings of neglect. [Dec 2009, p.94]

A nice puzzle game that you can play for a couple of hours but it soon becomes a chore. [Aug 2007, p.86]

Not terrible, but uninspired and lacking in any original ideas. [July 2012, p.98]

It gets the gold medal for pig-headedness, at least. [Dec 2013, p.80]

A fun platformer, but the repetitive levels and clumsy progress tracking let it down.

It's not a terrible game but it's not really impressive in any way whatsoever. [Sept 2011, p.99]

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

Serious boxing action that isn't spoilt by silly effects. Don King's Boxing is a great option. [Apr 2009, p.68]

Shallow, repetitive and just plain odd, Harvest Fishing is definitely a catch and release. [July 2008, p.89]
