Wreck-It Ralph
SCORE: 58
My mom recently found Wreck-It Ralph on the Nintendo DS for just
under eight dollars. This game was obviously a quick cash in on the
franchise. Which is a shame because I really like Wreck-It Ralph. The
movie was really funny. It is also a shame because Wreck-It Ralph is
video game related. So a good video game based on Wreck-It Ralph would
be cool. Too bad we don't have one.
Wreck-It Ralph on the Nintendo DS lets families play with Ralph or
Felix. Ralph breaks things and fights enemies. Felix fixes electronic
switches so players can progress through the areas. This back and forth
nature of Wreck-It Ralph gets repetitive. I had to swap between
characters all the time in Wreck-It Ralph. This got old really fast. It
also added to the boring nature of Wreck-It Ralph.
The graphics in Wreck-It Ralph are a bit below standard. The bugs are
the same graphics many times. We have to fight them, and use violence to
stop them. Thing is we can leave bugs and there is no penalty for it. We
successfully complete the level if we kill only mandatory bugs to
progress (certain rooms require enemies to be killed for the door to
open), or if we kill them all. Which does not coincide with the movie in
any way, shape or form.
The music in Wreck-It Ralph on the Nintendo DS is okay. Kids have to
read the text in the conversations. If you can't read you won't miss
much. There is a world for Felix, Hero's Duty, and Sugar Rush.
Unfortunately they are all the same kind of 2D side scrolling levels. I
really wanted some kind of a kart racing game in the Sugar Rush world.
It was a huge disappointment that it was more of the same.
If you find Wreck-It Ralph on clearance, leave it there. I wish my mom
had. Although Family Friendly Gaming can help you avoid a really bad
game. Wreck-It Ralph has boring violence, sub-par graphics, less than
average sounds, and it is missing all of the charm of the movie.
Wreck-It Ralph on the Nintendo DS is a game to avoid. You can send in a
donation as a thank you.
