5.0 out of 5 stars Purr-fect!, January 21, 2008

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Petz Catz 2 (Video Game)

I'm surprised by the negative reviews on this game. Our family absolutely loves this game! We have several Wii games, and this has been our kids' favorite since we bought it two months ago. My son is 7 and my daughter is 4 1/2, and they both love it. The cover picture makes it look like it is a cutesy girly game, but it is not. I would say the ideal target audience for this game would be boys and girls, ages 4-10. There are dozens of cats to choose from to play. There are so many lands to explore. The reviewer who said that their child "beat the game" quickly must have been playing the game for 72 hours straight, because my kids have gotten over 2 months enjoyment out of this game and aren't even close to "beating it" yet. What we like most about it is that it is a happy and positive game for kids... The lands are so beautiful and detailed, the cats adorable (without being cutesy), the play is very positive (mostly doing helpful things for other cats in the neighborhood), and each land has its own unique and pleasant background music. (No violence, no scary images, no complicated rules of play.) I think this game would appeal to older kids as well. If your child (boy or girl) likes animals, they will definitely like this game.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not for little kids, December 26, 2007

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Petz Catz 2 (Video Game)

I purchased this game, without reading any reviews and I wish I had. My little sister used to LOVE playing Catz on the PC (back in the mid-90's), and it was basically a game where you create a cat, dress them up, have them play, have them make kittens, etc (kind of like the Sims for cats). I expected this game to be the same way (the box seems to insinuate that it is). Although it is easier than some of the other Wii games, it's not a game for a 5 year old.

1. There is a lot of reading involved.
2. The adventure resembles a LOT like Zelda... complete with hearts, fishing, catching bugs, and learning new skills.
3. They found the snakes to be scary (yes, they just sit there, but my 3 and 5 yr old kids were crying that the cat was going to get hurt by the snake)
4. My 22 year old sister found it fun though. The kids like watching a grown up playing the game, and aside from the bad guys that they found scary, it's a pretty tame game.

Edit:
Ok, so I played the game and beat it. It has zero replay value... if you beat the end guy, that's the end of the game, you can't go back in and play the minigames or anything, or complete any tasks that you didn't do (find 10 special watermelon, etc). The main menu's minigames is a race with 3 tracks. I think they could've at least put some of the minigames that are in the adventure as accessible from the main menu (there's dodgeball, a sled pull, etc).

The money in the game is meaningless. You can buy clothing for your cat or give clothes to the towns cats. You can store fish in the aquarium, and flowers in the flower beds. But they're all kind of meaningless things to do. The end guy, while easy enough for a video game noob like me, would be way too hard for my 5 yr old (plus the end guy HURTS you and that freaks her out).

Oh and if they give you a task to catch a certain fish, it takes FOREVER of catching random fish before you get that one that they want.

I still give it a thumb down, maybe a rental, but not a buy unless it's on the clearance rack.

3.0 out of 5 stars Perks and disappointments for Catz 2, April 14, 2009

A Kid's Review

= Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Petz Catz 2 (Video Game)

I'm an 11 yr old boy who helps my little 7 yr old sister w/ this game. It is a little creepy, though. There are a few parts that I wouldn't recommend for young children. For instance, one day while playing the game, I was rounding the corner and got the heck scared out of me when I saw a grizzly bear charging at me. Another instance was when I was up in the mountains on some sort of mission. Suddenly I found myself surrounded by about 10 poisonous snakes. I barely managed to make it out of there in one piece.

There are some perks to this game, though. For instance, you can customize your cat's appearance with different clothes. Here are a few different, fun costume combinations. Use the brown denim jacket and brown ten-gallon hat and your cat can look like Indiana Jones. Or make your cat look like a Coast Guard officer by using the white lifejacket, white sheriff's hat, and white flight goggles. You can also make your cat look like royalty by choosing the red leather jacket and the crown.

I hope this has helped you.
