Expert Reviews

85/100

score

The PSP puzzler finds a natural home on Nintendo's console, where the Wii Remote finally gives you much-needed tilt control.

80/100

For $20, this game is really pretty impressive. This is not Bioshock or Mario Galaxy, but it is what it is - and with the Wii-mote it is a lot of fun.

75/100

score

It isn't a huge package, but it doesn't claim to be. What it is, however, is a solid game design that bests titles like Kororinpa or Dewy's Adventure.
