I bought this game because I am a huge fan of games where you play as small things, especially the Chibi Robo series. If you are a fan of the Chibi Robo games, you know all to well how much fun it can be doing seemingly mundane tasks. Minicopter Adventure Flight is very much similar to Chibi Robo.

You command a miniature helicopter and complete missions in a variety of different environments. They range from a child's bedroom, hospital, office, park, etc. You are given six different missions to do, and are graded according to your speed and how much damage you take. This is where the replayability comes into play, you will want to get "Perfect" on every mission.

As you progress you earn money to buy more helicopters and parts. Perfectionists will definitely want to own every single item. The games graphics are very simple, but thankfully it's a budget game. The motion controls are FANTASTIC, the game also supports the Wii Classic Controller. It runs in 480 progressive scan and 16:9 widescreen mode. There is also a competitive multiplayer mode.

For $30 you could do a lot worse than Minicopter Adventure Flight. It's a simple yet fun game appropriate for all members of the family. I am very happy I purchased this game and I hope it garners more retail sales!

For the price, this game is not bad. However, it really isn't anything that takes advantage of the Wii hardware, in terms of level of detail, visual effects, and the like.

Re-playability is low due to the fact that the single player game track takes you through the same few levels many many times (with slightly different challenges).

The game would be much better if there were more or larger levels to explore (or both), more "free roaming" missions, and mini-games.

The concept is great --- What is needed is an add-on pack with new vehicles, "dogfight" missions, and many more, larger levels.

My son is obsessed with helicopters and the radio controlled minicopter he got for Christmas didn't last until Boxing Day, so I ordered him this video game. The controls are simple to learn, but difficult to master, which is the hallmark of a great game. It keeps him and his brother coming back to try to fly through all the hoops in the room, pick up all the objects or shoot the targets. And that's just in the first level. The only possible negative is the way you have to roll the Wii controller to move forward. It takes quite a while for it to lumber forward, but I suppose that's better than it flying too quickly and hitting the wall. All in all a very entertaining game for my 8- and 5-year olds.

It's a sleeper! If you like Cake Mania, Burger Island, Candy Factory or Air Traffic Chaos, you will love MiniCopter!

Fun ! Might be a challenge for the younger kids. Good controls. Buy it if you thought you might like to fly !!

Avoid this game save your money or throw it in the street it would be more fun than this.
