LEGO Island 2: The Brickster's Revenge (PC)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: LEGO

March 30, 2001
When I played this game I thought at the beginning it would be a good one, but it turned out to be quite hard and quite limited. The graphics are good but there are limits to what you can do and what you can't. When you get to the second world, it's quite hard. The main problem is that it's very slow loading and when you're playing and change scene, it can take about 3 minutes each time to load. Overall, the graphics and humour are good, but the slow loading and difficulty in playing limit it. Not recommended.

Monopoly Tycoon (PC)

from: Hasbro

Monopoly tycoon is a fun, well structured game for all those future business tycoons looking for something to try out their skills on. But you don't have to be a keen business person to play by any means.
The game features a reasonable tutorial. One very impressive factor is the freedom of the 3d camera. You could take a look at the blocks from the london sky, or swing right down to street level and watch cars and pedestrians flock past you.
The game is set in London, with many features of the original monopoly board, such as chance cards, and each property as block opon which you build your hotels, apartments and loads of retail stores to suit the people living their and to bring in tourists. Apart from the very early missions, ... Read More:

Robot Wars 2: Extreme Destruction

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: BBC Multimedia

November 22, 2002
I was playing this on my laptop, which really couldn't handle anything other than the studio. In the rooftop and underground I found my PC too unresponsive. So Point No.1 - you need a desktop to play AND one with plenty of graphics and processing power. OK, that over with, it is SO MUCH better than Arenas Of Destruction and more realistic (to a point). I agree with many points already made that the house robots are too fast especially Sir Killalot. Yes, it is great fun too when they go up in the air, but COME ON!! Only Chaos 2 could flip a house robot!! And it is daft when the house robots drive into the pit - they would NEVER DO THAT!! I even managed to immobilise Dead Metal by flipping him with Wheely Big Cheese. So that is a questionable ... Read More:

Xplosiv London Racer

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: Empire

September 19, 2003
Despite being relatively easy to other racing games, the scenery and detail of London Racer make it one of the best driving games i have played. Each location has a charm of its own, Oxford has winding streets and newspapers that fly everywhere, whereas the more central parts of London sport red busses and famous landmarks. There are also lots of levels and variations in gameplay to keep you entertained. Unlike most driving games, the simulation of a real car is far more realistic...for example you can't flip in the air and land safely back on the road. When compared to more modern versions, like london racer 2 for playstation 2, the detail and atmosphere really don't compare. This is the original and the best!

Scrabble 2002

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: Ubisoft

November 30, 2001
This is a brilliant version of a brilliant boardgame. The difficulty is set to high but can be turned up or down depending on your level of expertise. The graphics and sound are great, and if you have a reasonably modern PC, the computer is fast at making its turn (on an old pentium 1 it is quite slow though!)

Theme Park Inc: Classic Range

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > PC Games
from: Electronic Arts

February 22, 2002
This is a bit of a disapointment compared to Theme Park World. I don't know what to say about the graphics, I don't know if they are better or worse. The game is not as brightly coloured as the first game thats for sure. I didn't find the gameplay brilliant compared to Theme Park World. It is slow even if your computer is triple the speed of the system requirements, bad development, EA never brought out a patch for it! I didn't enjoy it as much as the first, same concept but much more complicated. I actually prefered the assistant in THW who wasn't as annoying as the assistant in this one!! Luckily you can turn her turn off! I have given this 3 stars as I am a loyal fan of Bullfrog and it wasn't as bad as I made it sound.
