...when it hits 20 that is.
It's not a 35 dollar game, but I bought it at that much because I wanted lemmings without the suck, and for the most part I did get that. First off, reviews have mentioned its less of a puzzle game and more of an ACTION puzzle game. Which is true. The puzzles that are there take at most 2-3 tries to figure out. The pull, if you are this type of person, is to get higher ranks, perfect your paths, yadda yadda yadda...
If you arent this type of person, turn back now. Honestly I cannot fathom how anyone attains the gold stars, even when I think I am running optimum I get high range silver. Each world is quite different from the next, and the additions while not mind boggling, are neat, and will actually probably make you say 'cool' or 'neat' rather than WTF DO I DO HERE?! And ultimately that is why the game is easy. Its a bunch of cool ideas with a really neat presentation.
I also would like to point out that MvsDK2 is one of the best uses of the DS Stylus and Touch Screen you will find. While there are kinks when mini-marios start bouncing off each other 95% of the rest of the time things are smooth as silk. The packed in unlockable mini-games are ALL tap the bad guy and watch him blow up kinda pattern games, which while fun at first, are pretty disappointing.
Also the game has some great production values, lots of nice videos, great music, and IMO, great character designs round out the solid, if not challenging gameplay. Oh, and there's wifi level trading, made possible by a level creator. I am still playing through the game to unlock all the level tools, but I think even if I cant find someone to trade levels with, I can make a few for myself and see just how difficult I can make the game before its broken.
In the end I dont think I would pay 35 dollars for this game again, its a fun experience, but DVDs are an experience too and I only drop 20 at most for those.
