Customer Reviews

A kid's review
I am going to say the pros and cons of the game.

Pros: 1. It is a very fun game
2. The character's abilities and pixls are fun to use.

Cons: 1. WAY TOO EASY!!
2. After you beat the game, there is basicly nothing to do.

Overall a 3. I recommend renting, not buying the game.

Boring
Mario sets out on his most boring review. To much talking and not enough action. Very few rpg elements that used to be present. Oversimplified gameplay that children wouldn't enjoy because of the huge amount of text.

Lots of fun, but too much talking!
I want to start by saying I really enjoy playing this game. It's lots of fun with its different levels and tasks. There's plenty to do, and while it's not easy, it's not overwhelmingly difficult. I did finally break down and buy the guide, but I only use it when absolutely stumped. Despite its cartoonish appearance, this game is probably not good for really young kids (under 8 or so depending on gaming exp) because it is rather tricky sometimes. Personally, I find it just challenging enough to keep my interest, but not so hard that I want to quit (and I'm 24).
Now, that said, as much as I enjoy the game, the amount of dialogue drives me crazy! Everyone you meet wants to talktalktalk about stuff. Yes, a lot of it is important to the plot and gameplay, but not all of it. Also, you can't really make it go faster, so you just have to sit through it. I can understand that this would turn a lot of people off to this game, but I enjoy the game enough that I'm willing to put up with it.
If you're unsure if you are willing to deal with the talking, I suggest renting it first (the only reason I bought it before trying it was it was on major sale here on Amazon).
