Piglet may be small, but not only does he star in his own movie, but he's also got his own video game. Toddle along with him in Piglet's Big Game, as he adventures through his friends' dreams.

The premise is pretty simple, and so are the controls, though you may find those Woozles get the better of you on occasion. While Piglet's friends are sleeping, he enters their dreams and helps them with their troubles--Pooh can't find any honey, Tigger's lost his stripes, and Eeyore's so sad that all the colors have disappeared from his dream. On his journeys to help the gang, Piglet must be very brave and show those pesky Heffalumps and Woozles that he's not afraid. Luckily, Piglet can collect cookies in the oddest of places (popping out of a tree?) and trade them in for brave faces.

The game has nicely-designed, simple, colorful graphics and some of the dreams are quite ingenious. Of course Pooh dreams he lives in a candyland, and it's awfully fun to run through paths of gumdrops and licorice twists. Overall, Piglet's Big Game is an enjoyable romp, though tots may find braving the Woozles quite challenging at times. Stay brave, and attentive, and Piglet will prove his heroism.--Maile Bohlmann

Pros:

• Colorful, fun graphics
• Classic Pooh-and-the-gang characters
• Simple controls for young kids

Cons:

• Crafty, circling Woozles may get the better of young players
• It's necessary to collect all cookies, which can get monotonous

5.0 out of 5 stars An honest review, April 14, 2003

This review is from: Piglet's Big Game (Video Game)

This game is perfect. I have a 5 year old cousin and we play it together. But to review this game I must be honest.

The PROS

Perfect graphics ( as close to the way I rember them for pooh and the others)

Hard and Easy gameplay foy a parent or friend to explain and help a kid

Cool story ( esp. if the kid you are playing the game with has or have had bad monster dreams as my cousin did you can help them work through the problem with this game. Now when he has a bad dream he thinks piglet is there to help him)

The controlls are pretty easy for use to understand and help

The CONS

To hard and scary for a child if you do not play with them and explain what is going on ( if you play with them this does not apply )

All in all this is an excellent game for family to get toughter and play if one of the players are a kid under 12. I just hope this helps someone

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute Game, May 26, 2003

This review is from: Piglet's Big Game (Video Game)

I recently purchased this game for my six year old daughter for her birthday. She was not really excited about this game because she wanted one of the more popular games out there. Some of those games are just to advanced. After playing this game for about 10 minutes the rest of her birthday plans went out the window. She gave up going to dinner so she wouldn't have to stop playing the game. Now my eleven year old likes it just as much. Finally a good game for girls to play.

This review is from: Piglet's Big Game (Video Game)

I purchased this game for my son's 4th Birthday and he absolutely loves it (I do too!). The graphics and sound are really well done (Gotham Games puts a little more effort into their games than other companies), all of the characters speak throughout the game which is great since this is mostly aimed towards kids that haven't learned to read yet. The game is very entertaining and gives you many different tasks to accomplish. I even find myself playing it when my son isn't even around! :0) The only downside for young kids is trying to "scare" off the Heffalumps and Woozles. To do this you must press the controller buttons in the sequence shown on the screen. The time is limited which makes it a little difficult for really young kids. My son doesn't understand how to do this yet so I get him past those parts of the game. I think this game is worth at least twice what I paid for it and I highly recommend it!
