Where the Wild Things Are
SCORE: 65
My mom finds all kinds of fun,
interesting, fascinating, cool video games on clearance. She has a nose
for a really good deal. She found Where the Wild Things Are on the
Nintendo DS on clearance. We play characters from the movie.
I can totally understand anyone that takes one look and Where the Wild
Things Are and says: “No thank you. The creatures in Where the Wild
Things Are look strange. I mean they are monster kind of strange. They
are not cute and cuddling like the pocket monsters in Pokemon. Okay well
some of the of monsters in Pokemon are not cute looking. Some are
hideous to look at.
Where the Wild Things Are is a side scrolling 2D action adventure game
where we go from one place to the next. We help bring monsters to their
senses by bashing them in the head. There are some smaller creatures in
levels that we roar at. Our roars will paralyze them for a short period
of time. We can then pick them up, and throw them to make them go away.
Where the Wild Things Are does that neat little hopping from one screen
back into the background. Sort of a precursor to the levels we find on
the Nintendo 3DS. At times we have to clog the blockage in those screen
jumping stumps with a heavy object. Throw one at the other to make it go
away. As we knock some sense into the monsters we can use them in the
levels. They provide needed skills to progress past things like spikes.
Where the Wild Things Are has nice music. All in all Where the Wild
Things Are is an average hand held movie based video game. There are
better and worse games out there.
