news · May 29, 2008

Hi all,

We have just published a review of *Boom Blox* for the Nintendo Wii. If

you could post a link on your site that would be very much appreciated.

*/"With all that said though, there are a few weak points in Boom Blox

which perhaps limit how much fun you can have with it. The first and

most damaging flaw is the length of the game because after only a few

hours of gaming we¡¦d already finished nearly the entire Explore mode and

were making a decent dent in the Adventure side of things.

The other thing to bear in mind is that, like all puzzle games, //Boom

Blox will frustrate you as much as it¡¦ll keep you entertained. Playing

through the Chemical Blox campaign in Explore mode was something we did

with ease until about the eighth level, at which point we got stumped

for more than an hour. Lots of swear words were uttered before we

eventually got a gold medal.

Still, it¡¦s all very much a minor chink in the armour of //Boom Blox and

this is definitely one of the must-have family games in our opinion. As

a party game it may play second fiddle to the likes of //Warioware, but

if you¡¦re after something to play on a week night when you don¡¦t need a

bottle of tequila to have fun then this is definitely the game for you.

The combination of fluid controls, screaming chickens and huge

explosions is a sure winner."/

*Cheers guys!
