GameSpot: Fun Fun Minigolf looks surprisingly good. The three themed courses cover three continents (America, Asia, and Europe) and three difficulty levels (easy, medium, and advanced). Each course is vibrantly colored and attractively landscaped. When it’s your turn to putt, you can aim your shot or change the camera angle with the D pad. You [...]
IGN: WordJong Party Review
We liked WordJong on DS, and WordJong Party successfully brings the game to Wii and lets up to four spelling nerds battle it out. This isn’t the kind of game that is going to set the world of fire, but it’s a solid puzzler and a fun multiplayer experience. Some more effort could have been [...]
