 Rating:  - I didn't like itI may have missed something, but I really didn't like this game. I was expecting something like Monkey Island or Simon the Sorceror but got something more like Lemmings. Some of the other reviews are misleadin - this is not an adventuree game, there is no free roaming, each level is a staged puzzle. There doesn't appear to be more than one way of solving each puzzle and certain mistakes will cause your death, albeit usually in an amusing way, but this will send you all the way back to the start unless you use the gold you collect to buy credit notes to resume where you left off. What really killed it for me was a point where it seemed the only way to solve a puzzle was by ringing that stupid bell in time to the notches on a record. ... Read More: Rating:  - MasterpieceThrough the myriad of sequels and knock-off clones that are poisoning the games market, this is a game that is a real treat. You play as Zack, a pirate-in-training who goes off with his monkey Wiki to find all manner of treasure and loot. Zack is aided by his pirate pals (a feisty bunch of rabbits and clown-like things...) as he goes through a variety of environments where a large treasure chest holds a bounty full of loot. It is your mission to help Zack get this treasure and win the level. This may look like kiddie game but do not be fooled, it becomes a devilish puzzler with great graphics and some of the most lovable characters I have seen on the platform. The Wii may not be a polygon powerhouse, but this title proves ... Read More: Rating: - Fantastic- Seriously UnderratedI own the majority of agmes out for the wii and this without questions comes very close to the top of the best games out there. For ppl who think is is for kids, they couldnt be more wrong. I would love find anyone anyage who finished this without a struggle! (internet walkthrough nto included!) This is is extremely easy to pick up and play, but that shouldnt be confused with childish. Its a hidden gem and a must have for all wii / puzzle fans. 5/5 Rating:  - This is not Monkey IslandSo many people compare this game to Monkey Island, but it is not really anything like. This is more similar in concept to the Goblins game that was around at about the same time as Monkey Island - lots of individual puzzles that stand on their own. The puzzle elements of this game are good (albeit not that tricky) and the graphics and sounds are polished and atmospheric. Just two things let the game down: un-skippable cut scenes (including some that show you how you need to hold the remote to solve each puzzle, which kind of removes the element of working it out for yourself) and poorly scripted pirate dialogue. The dialogue is the thing that bugs me most. Instead of Genuine Pirate-Speak(tm), as used in Monkey Island, they ... Read More: Rating: - Occasional frustrations don't quite sink this piratey gemThe Wii's control system is perfect for the almost-extinct point-and-click adventure genre, so it was only a matter of time before they started to make a comeback on the machine. Thankfully, Capcom saw fit to lead the way with Zack and Wiki, bringing back all the usual try-this-on-that puzzling with a little added gesture-based interactivity and bucketloads of charm for good measure. The game is less dialogue-driven than the likes of Monkey Island or Broken Sword, and instead of acquiring an ever-growing inventory of bizarre items during the course of the game, Zack and Wiki is broken into different missions, each containing their own self-contained puzzle; the solution to which can be found in the items around you in that level. This sometimes ... Read More: |
