Hawaiian Explorer 2 - Lost Island Game Review

By Ruff Bismonte

As the name suggests for this game, Hawaiian Explorer 2: Lost Island is about an explorer off to find adventure in Hawaii, and this adventure is all about finding an island lost in Hawaii's history. But the game is about fulfilling a lifelong dream too and trying to enrich the people of Hawaii with their forgotten beliefs.

Hawaiian Explorer 2: Lost Island starts with the story of Hawaii's creation as Charlie Johnson, a famous explorer, narrates it. According to him, Hawaii was made by 4 gods who developed the country with 20 islands, having 1 hidden for the Hawaiians to find. Finding this lost island is supposedly a way for the people of Hawaii to remember their beliefs, and Charlie being an old guy that he is, wants to conclude his lifelong adventure with a possible discovery of this outstanding legend.

The mechanics of the game is for you to find hidden objects across many of the game's many beautiful sceneries. It's actually a classic hidden object game where items are listed on the top of the screen and you just have to find all the items within the time limit to beat each level.

Now, I did say that the sceneries are beautiful, but this doesn't mean that the objects are illustrated beautifully too. While it's no wonder why all the scenes are cluttered with random items not having to do anything with regards to the game's plot, the large amount of items however are just too ridiculous to ignore. Many of the items are even indistinguishable, even after successfully finding them. An example would be a pyramid that looks like a brown folded paper which isn't even shaped like a real pyramid.

On the other hand, Hawaiian Explorer 2: Lost Island also features fun mini-games to play like a mahjong game and a jigsaw puzzle. Mini-games mostly have nothing to do with the game's plot development, but are very interesting anyway, so you really have to give credit to the developers for giving you a break from all that tiresome hidden object activity.

7 Wonders - Treasures of Seven Game Review

By Ruff Bismonte

Mumbo Jumbo's hit match 3 franchise 7 Wonders is back yet again for the next installment in the series. The 7 Wonders: Treasures of Seven game puts you in charge of helping human workers build nine wonders of architecture scattered all around the world. But how does it fare as a puzzle game? Well, let's just see in this review.

In 7 Wonders: Treasures of Seven, you are invited to take part in the creation of nine structural wonders that are considered the greatest sights in the world. Legend has it that these structures are built upon mystic sites by the ancient builders, and together, the sites point to the City of Gods and the magnificent Treasures of Seven. You have to play through all nine sites, and complete the parts of three magical compasses, in order for you to have a chance in reaching these glorious rewards.

Each wonder you visit in the game is represented by a game cube where you have to play seven levels. Completing each cube face will mean completing six levels all in all, and afterwards, you move inside the cube in order to complete a final level. Each finished cube will reward you a one-third part of a compass, and you have to complete all three compasses in order to finish the game. Multiplying all of that means hours and hours of match 3 playing, and since you also have two objectives for each level you face, this definitely means an experience worth your money too if you chose to buy the game.

Anyway, let's just talk about 7 Wonders: Treasures of Seven in a single-level perspective.

As what was said earlier, each level of the game is comprised by two objectives. Your first task is to harvest blocks for the builders to carry on the site by clearing them off the game board. Matching three or more same colored runes will chip-off the blocks underneath them, and the builders waiting below will automatically gather all of the scattered blocks and bring it to the building site.

Wii Music - Guitar Hero For the Whole Family

By Bradley E

The Wii game console has expanded console gaming to the entire family with accessible games, an intuitive motion sensitive controller and a lower price point. With the release of the Wii Music game, Nintendo opens up an entirely new genre, started by the Guitar Hero franchise, to a wider audience.

Wii Music Instruments

Utilizing the motion controller that Wii has become famous for, you can expand the number of possible instruments to well into the dozens - go well beyond Guitar Hero or even the complete band set with Rock Band to play nearly any instrument you can imagine: Wii Music allows you to play the Indian sitar, as well as a wide variety of Western instruments from genres ranging from classical to rock.

Wii Music Creation

Music fans will delight in their ability to interact and improvise with musical scales in an entirely new way; rather than following a dexterity test format of other guitar rock games, the game allows you to freely explore and to simulate the creative process of music creation.

Since the collaborative nature of music creation is at the core of the process for artists, Nintendo emulates the feel of a studio by allowing you to share, remix and collaborate with other players on new musical tracks through its online Wii Connect feature. In this way, you can explore new musical ideas as well as getting the same type of feedback that you would get from a true musical composition.

For fans of nearly every genre - ranging from improvisational jazz to modern techno pop - Wii Music raises the music simulation genre to a new level, and is highly recommended for introducing children to the creative process. When combined with genuine interaction with real instruments and lessons, Wii Music can help jog the creative vibe in children of all ages.

Tradewinds Classic Game Review

By Ruff Bismonte

The art of trading among sailing merchants was already a thing of the past, but you really can't discount the fact that they did have many adventures of their own in those days. Good news that the Tradewinds Classic game lets you relive the glory of the 19th century Far East as you step into the shoes of merchants in search of riches in this trading adventure game.

Tradewinds Classic is all about you trying to aim for the top of the trading world by sailing the open seas in search of fortune and fame. At the beginning of the game, you get to choose between 4 adventurers each needing your help to make it big trading goods. Buying low priced goods and selling them high is just the tip of the iceberg. In this game, you earn money from collecting pirate bounties too. It's just up to you on which path to take, just be sure that you'll survive the whole adventure because the seas won't be forgiving either way.

Depending on which character you take will start you off on their respective homelands. Each character has a difficulty in handling too, with the easier ones having more money and mercenaries fighting for them, or if you want a challenge, go choose someone who doesn't even a single penny in him to start his journey. One thing's for sure - that this game is a real test of wits and cleverness, because all characters are definitely able to make the journey, it just depends on you on how you play them.

One thing I loved about Tradewinds Classic is how much freedom the game gives you on your actions toward your goals. Lending money and saving them on banks, buying and selling goods, getting tips from the alehouse and port authorities, or buying and equipping ships, it's your call on what to do. The main aim though is to make money doing all these things, and that's the main challenge presented by the game.

Mario Kart Wii

By Robert A Lawrence

Mario Kart Wii is the latest addition of the Mario Kart series. Designed with the Wii in mind you could say it was designed for the Wii, So what do you get with Mario Kart Wii, well you get a Wii Wheel thrown in the package, giving you a more realistic driving experience. It is, however, compatible with other controllers as well. Mario Kart Wii still has its classic Mario Kart characters as well as additional characters.

Mario Kart Wii requires you to have 23 blocks on the player's Wii system so you can save game data. The game data can't be copied so don't bother waste your time trying. This feature prevents players from transfering game data from one wii to another. The Mario Kart Channel uses 78 blocks, but unlike the game data, players can actually copy the channel onto their SD cards.

The great thing about Mario Kart Wii is that up to 12 players can race against each other to the finish in multi-lap race around a given circuit, you can employ all sorts of tricks, shortcuts, horseplay to earn yourself first place. You can also select twelve types of vehicles, six karts, and six bikes, to compete in each of the three classes available. Your selected Vehicles will vary depending on your characters weight, as will your colour scheme, depending on which character is shown.

Tournaments

If you fancy your chances against other opponents online there is a list of tournaments available, there is a new mode in Mario Kart Wii called "Tournament Mode", the PAL version of this is called the "Competition Mode".

You can play the Tournaments on the Mario Kart Channel, but make sure the Mario Kart Wii disc is in the Wii. You will of course need an internet connection, and Wii Connect 24 to be turned on before they can be played. After a while, a tournament is archived to make room for a new one. However, you can still view the rankings of older tournaments on the ranking table.

Types of Tournaments available

• VS. Race - A standard VS. race; however you will find the race courses are somewhat altered.


• Time Trial - A standard Time Trial; race courses are somewhat altered.


• Numbered Gates - You must drive through the gates in order, as fast as you possible can.


• Coin Collecting - Here you must collect the coins on the stage as fast as you can.


• Boss Battle - You must fight against a boss from Super Mario Galaxy or New Super Mario Bro.- These Tournaments are played on special stages.

There is a new feature called "Tricks" or "Stunts" and it is now a part of gameplay. When a player performs a trick, the player is able to gain a momentary boost of speed, which allows characters to do a few different things, such as grabbing an Item Box out of midair. One example of trick is pulling off acrobatics in air, which can be performed by shaking the Wii Wheel upward, but try not to shake your arms off, while doing this, ha ha ha!

Guess what, Mario Kart Wii also features a text chat in online multi-player Mode. You can send pre-written phrases to other players before the series of races starts. Unfortunately you cannot type your own message, because this facility is not available, however you can text when racing or battling against your friends or other competitors.

Safari Island Deluxe Game Review

By Ruff Bismonte

Mahjong will always be same old mahjong they say, and nothing can change that, but in Safari Island Deluxe, we get to see a new face in the same addictive mahjong gameplay. And yes, based from the name itself, this game features tons of wild animals and other safari-based stuff. But there's more to tackle in this game besides the theme, and that's what I aim to show you in this review.

Like what I had said earlier, Safari Island Deluxe actually plays like mahjong, but there's an outstanding twist to the gameplay. Instead of matching two tiles of the same design, you have to match tiles that combine to form a picture. For example, two tiles will separately illustrate the head and tail of a snake. You have to combine both tiles to eliminate them from the game. Eliminate all tiles and you get to move on to the next level.

Your aim is to reach the end of the island while unlocking animal clouds along the way. Each level you finish will be ranked according to how well you did on that particular game. Removing all tiles will only rank you a bronze check mark, removing all tiles within the time limit is worth a silver check mark, and beating the target score set in each level will earn a whopping gold check mark. Now, while all of that sounds good, one complaint I have on this ranking system is how impossible it is to earn a gold mark on many of the levels. The target score is just too big and you have to be god-like fast in order to attain it.

The unique gameplay of Safari Island Deluxe opens up a great deal of innovation in terms of challenge. Many of the items and animals illustrated on later levels are just too big to contain in only two tiles. This means that you'll have to contend with combining up to 5 tiles for just one picture, and if you're a seasoned mahjong player, you know that unlocking tile parts can really be such a pain.

Redrum Game Review

By Ruff Bismonte

Just when you thought that most of the mystery casual games you've been playing are scary, along comes Redrum from Anarchy Enterprises. This game is as weird as a casual game can be and that's why I sincerely suggest only mature audiences dare try out this surreal thriller.

Redrum, in a basic sense, is murder spelled backwards. This game is about a girl named Rose whose ability enables her to see, talk and interact with ghosts. Not only burdened by her parents' divorce, she was also sent to a psychological institute led by the money-hungry Dr. Sigmund Fraud by her father, blinded by the doctor's falsely administered diseases to Rose. Now, it seems that her only hope lies upon her detective uncle, whose mission is to get Rose out of the madhouse, and upon her friends, the ghosts that Rose interacts with mostly in her dreams.

This game is a hidden object installment where you're tasked to find clues listed on the bottom of the screen. Before any puzzles are to be solved though, a mystery will take place as narrated by the local newspaper. Playing as the detective, it now becomes your job to solve these murders by trying to crack the clues supplied by Rose, and while playing as Rose, your task is to interact with your ghostly friends and solve puzzles in your dreams, later to be written in Rose's diary.

With that said, the gameplay of Redrum is just like any other hidden object game. Lists are sometimes in a form of silhouettes or part of an image you have to find from the collective whole. The uniqueness of the game though comes from the disturbing images it presents. The scenes are most of the time gruesome and just plain weird, and really, all that green in the background successfully made by stomach very queasy.

Redrum is one of the many games featured and reviewed at Casualicious. Please visit our site to read more about Redrum and get to play hundreds of other games worth your time and enjoyment.
