Customer Reviews

Fun game
It allows you to keep increasing your "record" but some of the games are wierd. Good addition to the Wii collection.

Did not enjoy this game.
I purchased this game based on the reviews and the videos. It appeared to be fun. I found this game to be very boring and difficult to use, especially with a child that has Cerebral Palsy and limited movement in one arm and hand. Most of the games allow for use of only the Wii remote, this game requires use of both the Wii remote and the nunchuck.

This type of movement is hard enough for healthy individuals, but it is darn near impossible for people with physical limitations. I found the game instructions unclear and confusing and the challenges were not fun. Overall, I found this game a waste of money.

Tennis Elbow
I liked this game so much I gave myself tennis elbow. Beware of quick sudden repetitive hand and arm movements or you will end up like me. If you are over 40, take it easy. Have fun and ice after playing.
