2.0 out of 5 stars iToys Whammies Bigtime, September 26, 2008

I bought this game expecting big things. I was disappointed. No, I was THOROUGHLY disappointed.

What I was expecting out of the box was a game with a full LCD screen--too much to hope for a $20 toy, I know, and that's on me--with the classic board layout in a square around the edge, with squares that actually lit up. The photo they provided would seem to support that. Not so.

What I actually got out of the box was an LED display with two rows--not a square, but ROWS--of squares to represent the Big Board, the "lit" square represented by an arrow appearing momentarily next to each square. The music is sub-MIDI quality--again, $20 toy--and worst of all, you're playing by yourself with no opponents and therefore without any risk. The game's trivia questions, while current, are clearly skewed towards teens and those obsessed with pop stars. There's very little general-knowledge trivia and that disappoints.

On the plus side, the game DOES include Whammy animations that pop up whenever you land on one of the little tricksters.

All in all, I'd strongly urge anyone considering this to just go with the DVD game.

First, Thank you for such prompt service I received the game sooner than expected. It is really fun to play. It was well worth the money especially if you like playing handheld games. My only regret is that I only bought one and I now have to share. Overall I rate this game 5 star on easy to play, for entertainment, and durability.

This game is one of the worst games I ever
bought. The Whammy's are too small to really
see them. It was put together poorly. And is
just not A good game to play for. A long time
because the screen is soo small. But the
questions they ask to score spins is some
what educationally though.
