Sudoku Master (Nintendo DS)

Sudoku Master (Nintendo DS)
Customer Review: Does What It Says On The Tin
The game cannot be faulted at all in providing exactly what is expected - a large number of Su Doku puzzles with an initial tutorial mode for those unfamiliar with the puzle , going all the way up to quite difficult . Game times are kept , and there is a star system based on how quickly the puzzles are completed . Completing the grid is by either writing the numbers in the boxes , or tapping on a panel beside the grid .There is space to actually ‘pencil’ in suggestions for numbers in boxes - I have done this when doing the puzzle in newspapers for instance .

So . It’s pretty low on frills , but you get what you want - heaps of puzzles !

Customer Review: A must for Sudoku fans
There are several aspects of this game which make it stand out from other sudoku games. There are two methods for completing the grids, by touching a number pad (this is extremely helpful as a number becomes greyed out when it has been entered in the grid 9 times), or by writing in with the stylus. So you can choose which method suits you best. There are 10 practice sessions where an incorrect entry comes up red which is very good for beginners. There are 400 puzzles ranging from practice, easy, normal and hard and a time record and scoring is kept so you can go back and repeat a puzzle to try and improve on your score. Hours of fun!! You can highlight numbers and lines in the grid to make it easier to see where you have completed. All in all, I totally love this version of sudoku and would recommend it 100% to both sudoku fans and newcomers to sudoku alike.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (Nintendo DS) The epic story of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker continues as Link finds himself lost and alone in unknown seas in a new adventure. Featuring intuitive touch-screen controls and innovative puzzles, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass offers new challenges for fans of the series and an easy-to-grasp introduction for gamers new to The Legend of Zelda. But time grows short, and only the Phantom Hourglass can buy Link the minutes he?ll need to survive. Many months have passed since the events of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, and Link, Tetra and Tetra?s band of pirates have set sail in search of new lands. They come across a patch of ocean covered in a dense fog, in which they discover an abandoned ship. Tetra falls into danger when she explores the ship alone, and Link falls into the ocean when he attempts to rescue her. When he washes up unconscious on the shores of a mysterious island, he is awakened by the sound of a fairy?s voice. With the aid of this fairy, he sets off to find Tetra ? and his way back to the seas he once knew. The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is controlled almost entirely by the stylus. Using the touch screen, players direct Link?s movements and attacks: A sweeping motion triggers Link?s spin attack and tapping characters makes Link speak with them. The stylus controls offer a more intuitive means of playing the game and open up new possibilities for puzzle solving. The game action takes place primarily on the touch screen, with a map on the top screen. However, the player can inspect the map on the touch screen and make notes using the stylus. The notes on these maps are saved for review on the top screen during game play. Players use the map to chart courses for their ships, too. Using the stylus to draw a path through the islands, players set their ships? courses. Then, as the ships automatically follow the paths drawn, players can control their ships? cannons to target oncoming enemies. In dun
Customer Review: Best DS game yet!!!
As a fan of Zelda games, and of the DS, I was really excited about the Phantom Hourglass… and I wasn’t one bit disappointed! The game carries on the great Zelda tradition for anyone familiar with it, and it is a direct follow-on to the Gamecube Zelda and the Wind Waker - it starts where the Wind Waker finished off. A must for Zelda fans!! But even if you haven’t played other Zelda games, you are given a full story and will enjoy it as a standalone game. The story is great, funny in parts and with a main story and side-quests to keep you occupied for ages. The thing I really loved about this Zelda was the touch screen. This game really uses the touch screen functions, from running and using your sword, to more fun things like deciding what direction your boomerang goes in, mapping out your sea journey on your sea-chart, calling through the microphone to get a character’s attention or to blow on lanterns and dusty maps, and the most useful thing of all: writing notes on your map or circling where a trap is, for example. Sooo handy, you’ll wonder how you ever went through a dungeon in a game without it! There’s lots more the DS functions are used for, but I think you get the general idea that it’s really well used! I’ll stop now, but basically I’d really recommend this game to everybody who likes DS games where the touch screen is used, likes role-playing or action type games, and who wants something that will keep them entertained for a good while! Suitable for any age or gender (I’m a 20 year old female). Buy it now!!!:)
Customer Review: great fun
After seeing my sister playing an old zelda game on the gameboy years ago, i thought id give this new one ago on the ds. I originally thought that this game would be mega easy and really simple. I was happy to be proven wrong. Its very easy game play, but some of the tasks can be challenging, which i was pleasantly suprised at as i thought this game was for the younger crowd. The story line is good, although i find not as addictive as others, but then its easy to retrun to as it isnt as complicated as some rpg’s.
A great game to play if you cant dedicate hours on end to and can only spare 30 mins here and 10 mins there.

Super Mario 64 DS (Nintendo DS)
For anyone buying a Nintendo DS, Mario 64 is the most obvious first purchase. The main single player mode is essentially the same as the original Super Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64, albeit with 30 more stars to collect from the game’s myriad levels. Back in 1997 it was the first truly successful 3D platform game and today its superlative level design still puts most new games to shame.

The most obvious difference with this new DS version is that you can now control Wario, Yoshi and Luigi in the game, as well as just Mario. There are also new and more powerful power-ups, such as the ability to turn Mario into an inflatable balloon, which make some of the hardest sections a little easier.

The most controversial change to the game though is the control system. With no analogue controller you have the choice to use just the D-pad or the stylus. The latter works best, but still seems an obvious compromise over the original version. A far more convincing showcase of the DS’s touch screen can be seen with 36 different mini-games, many of which are surprisingly addictive. There’s a multiplayer mode for four people to play wirelessly, which although a little simplistic is impressive for the fact that only one person needs a copy of the game to play it.

Although it does at times seem a little obvious that this was not a game originally designed with the DS in mind, it’s still an enormous amount of fun and manages to showcase just about everything the new console is capable of. –David Jenkins

Customer Review: It’s Me Mario!
If You Want A Good DS Game Get Super Mario 64 DS The 2nd Greatest Game For The DS Ever! (The First One Is “New Super Mario Bros.”) Anyway This Has Fully 3-D Graphics (Which Made Me Think Every DS Game Was Gonna Be In 3-D Seeing As It Was The First Ever DS Game Released!)And LLoks Just The Like The Original Nintendo 64! It’s Absolutely Fabulous!!! Get It Now (Oh by the way im the same guy as Michael Yeland I have 5 users But ive been locked out my old user because i cant remember my user name! So I cant delete the old review so your gonna have to put up with the both of em!)
Customer Review: Fantastic!
Well what can I say. I had never considered getting a DS until I played this at my friend’s house. I’ll sum it up in a few bullets: -very good graphics -fun for hours and hours -fun even when you’ve completed the game -you can play as all 4 characters (yoshi, mario, luigi, wario) -good storyline -BRILLIANT to play multiplayer, though we usually make up games like tag, 40 40 home, and hide and seek when in multiplayer mode -challenging -not repetitive -can be very hard to get hold of in high street shops, and even if you do find it, it will be atleast ?30 -over all FANTASTIC! I must point out that when you ask for this game in shops they will most likely tell you it is a very old game, not very good on the DS because it is 3D and they will probably recommend Super Mario Bros. They will also tell you rather annoyingly to trust them because they work in a DS store. They are wrong! I have been playing Mario games since the original black and white gameboy, in gameboy colour, gameboy advance SP and now nintendo DS. It works really well in 3D format! Overall a fantastic game, I would recommend it to anyone with a DS, even if the price is a bit offputting! Hope this helps!

Customer Review: addictive for adults or kids
I got my DS as a treat for my hols & really fancied the puzzles rather than midless gaming. It stores several peoples scores so you can share it with family members or mates & see who is the “brainiest” amoung you…its quite addictive & competition can soon break out as everyone wants to increase their score. I definitely wouldnt say its easy to complete & after a few goes you will have “completed it all”…I have played with this an awful lot & getting gold medals in the different categories is no mean feet….its very interesting to see how different each persons brain works…some of the tasks i am brilliant at & some i just cant do properly no matter how hard i train! this is great fun for adults & children alike…definitely i would recommend it
Customer Review: Great Brain Workout — and VERY fun too!
Got this for the kids together with Brain Training. From the childish graphics, I assumed this would be too easy, but I was wrong I love the great variety of games and activities and how challenging they are. Though I also enjoy Brain Training, I prefer Brain Academy because of the variety of activities provided. Ideally, you should get both Big fun for the whole family!
