 Good for the children, September 5, 2009
Irene Carrillo (Maracay, Venezuela)
The game is adapted for children, but when completing the game, you can no longer make anything more new with the, the history is very to line, for what is not interesting to play it many times
It might be fun for kids August 14, 2009
Sharbysyd (Buffalo, NY USA)
My fiance bought this game for me for Christmas. As soon as I started to play, I was disappointed in the characters and how they all looked like kids. After playing the game for about an hour I didn't really like it and didn't want to play anymore but gave it another couple of tries because my fiance had bought it for me.
After playing the second time, I liked the game a bit better. It took me a while to grasp how to go about creating the various buildings. It's also kind of annoying how your two companions follow you around everywhere and the boy companion makes a very annoying sound several times during any game session.
This game is mostly about going to various islands, finding different items (like mana, flowers, fruit, metals etc) to use to fulfill scrolls and then you build things with premade shapes. To find the various items, you might go mining, fishing or exploring. I thought that collecting things was fun but got boring after a while. I didn't find building things to be much fun or to be very challenging. I felt this game lacked challenge.
One thing that I thought was cute was that each island had a different theme. This might be a fun game for kids, but I wouldn't think that adults would like it very much. Sims 2 Castaway is more for adults and costs less. I got that game after this one and couldn't stop playing it for a few weeks.
Fun for the kids August 10, 2009

The game was fun and easy to follow. As far as long term once you have completed the levels its pretty boring. so its great to play through once then good to turn in for another game.

charming, simple, and fun July 24, 2009
Hedera Femme (USA)
While the special features found only in a Wii are not used much for this game (movement-based action, use of personalized charactersany Wii user knows as Miis), it is still very cute and entertaining for kids or adults. Like other sim-type games, you are able to customize environments and clothing of some characters and have the freedom to explore and interact, but the similarities mostly end there. You do not control all of the characters/are not able to switch control from one character to another, and there is some linear flow to the action. You are given a series of missions on each of a few locales; as you progress, you are allowed to explore new locales, as well as accumulate options from all current and previous locations.
The basic idea is to rebuild and fix different places and help the residents in each one. Sometimes that means finding objects, other times, talking with people to resolve conflicts. To build structures or machines, etc., you need to have certain points which can be found by toying with trees, plants, and other objects. You also need raw materials that are sometimes hidden, or other times uncovered by mining (you have to find hot spots and then use the controller like a little pick axe) or digging, as though for buried treasure.
Sometimes it is a little repetitive, but that is the nature of the genre, and all in all, the loose structure and dialogue keep things moving. It would probably be more entertaining if the characters spoke a real language, but apparently the makers wanted to save on having to do multiple voice-overs and translations, so that's a bit of a loss there, especially for some younger kids, but having dialogue is still appreciated. Also, having to figure out mechanical puzzles might be trickier for the younger crowd, it's fun having to use a little spatial reality logic to make things work, though it's not Very challenging.
Wii is definitely improving its offerings, and while this isn't the best game I've seen on the system, the charmingly rendered environment and cute characters and story make this a fun little adventure.
