Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Imagine Party Babyz brings the fun of the popular Babyz franchise to the Wii in the form of a play date neither you or your child will soon forget. Reminiscent of earlier releases in the franchise where players nurture individual babies while mothers and fathers are away at work or on errands, Imagine Party Babyz expands on the idea with the twist of placing players in the role of a baby in daycare.

Gameplay
Built around a line-up of 30 mini-games that are design to be playable by yourself or in multiplayer mode with up to three additional players, the first task you face is to customize the baby you will be playing as. This consists of the usual options of facial features, eyes, hair, clothing and accessories, etc. From there you are tossed right on the rug as the wacky childcare professional running the daycare you have been left at leads you and the rest of the nursery through a series of baby specific mini-games. Just a few of these are the timelessly slow, racing classic: Red Light, Green Light, which has players wildly shaking the Wii Remote to move their baby forward as the babysitter's back is turned and freezing when he/she turns around; and a takeoff the common giant puzzle game children adore, in which players use the Wii Remote to get their babies to fit pieces in place. The perfect multiplayer Wii game for parents to play with their young children, Imagine Party Babyz brings the magic of a child's experience to life for both kids and kids at heart.

Key Game Features:

• 30 hilarious mini-games.
• Character customization of your babies.
• Both singleplayer and 1-4 player multiplayer support.
• Adorable babies to care for and ultimate babysitting tasks.
• The ability to earn in-game currency.

3.0 out of 5 stars Kinda Fun, But Short, July 2, 2009

A Kid's Review

= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Imagine Party Babyz (Video Game)

This game is ok. Some of the mini games are fun, but the main game is the mimi games, I mean it's not very interactive. Sure, some video games aren't like that, but if there's a girl trying to get to be a special expert babysitter, wouldn't you want to interact with the babies a little more? I enjoyed dressing the babies though. Also, the game is only a little challenging, and the races are kind of hard. Here's one of my main points: it's short, and mostly easy. Well, two points. It only took me a few days to finish,(I'm nine), so I think this game is good for kids 5-7, well, 4 and 3 years can play it too, but may need help reading stuff in the game. If you want to get this for your kids that are 8+, or they want to get it, I think you should rent it. So I'm saying, good to buy for 5-7 year olds, and good to rent for 8+, for a few days of fun.

This review is from: Imagine Party Babyz (Video Game)

my 7 year old daughter got this in her stocking. It's all right, she really likes it but no one else has really played it, so I can't tell if it's because it's "hers" or if she truly enjoys it.
You get to dress up 4 different babies and as you win games it unlocks more clothing choices, this is her favorite part.
There appear to be a ton of mini games,
It's a good non violent game for a younger child. especially girls if you want to steer clear of the disney singing themed games.

I got this game for my four year old daughter. She has some what a hard time with the controllers but not that bad. I also enjoy playing this game and unlocking the outfits for the babys. Also Even though it is harder for her she still loves to play it.
