Rating: - Just what we were looking for...
I am writing this review to hopefully help someone in a similar situation as my family with Wii game buying. We got our Wii for Christmas and our son is just about to turn 4. He got the Go Diego Go Safari game when we got the Wii (by the way, I also recommend this title if you are looking for something that very little children can play on the Wii.) He played that game a handful of times, won the game, and now won't touch it, it's too easy. However, there seems to be a gap between that game (there aren't many that young) and the bulk of the games which are much too difficult or slow moving. So...we are having a hard time finding anything besides Mario Kart he can/will play. When we were shopping recently we found a sale rack of Wii games and this one was on there. It went against my better judgement to buy it without reading the reviews first, but he absolutely had his mind made up that this was the game he wanted. The main point of my review is to encourage buyers looking for games they can play WITH their younger kids. I am not sure he would do as well alone, but I am astounded how well he does when his dad or I play with him, in fact he really does as well, if not better than I. I agree with many other things that other reviewers have said, that the graphics and tone of the game in general are light hearted enough to engage kids. The controls are easy enough to figure out, if you care, and if you don't (like me) or are really young (like my son) then you can just push the "A" button over and over and still be effective. However, there are upgrades and combo moves and all that fancy video game stuff, that my husband will not die of boredom or frustration when he has to play with our son. And again, I think the graphics are a great mixture of realistic and cartoon to be pleasing to many levels of players also. Additonally, I can see that it will grow with our son (and his younger brother in a year or two) and therefore I am very happy with the purchase. Overall I am very pleasantly surprised by this game, and think it is filling a void in our Wii library and highly recommend it for families.
