A Kid's Review

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi The Genie and the Amp (Video Game)

This game was a really cool game because you attack by touching four guitar strings on the touch screen. I really enjoyed that feature. On the other hand, the game was dull and repetitive as each level wouldn't be much different from the next. All in all, I think this game was good.

This game is a classic case where the game developer released something to merely cash in on the popularity of the Puffy/Ami/Yumi franchise. The game is entirely a side-scrolling fighter (except for the occasional forgetful mini-games)and you'll fight 3 or 4 of the same enemies over and over again on a level, then it's off to the next level to fight the next 3 or 4 new enemies over and over AND OVER. I was prayiing that each level would end before it ever began. This is just too bad because the sound samples and amount of unlockable content made me want to keep playing; sadly the repetitive gameplay overshadows anything positive the game can offer. Don't buy this for yourself and don't you dare buy it for your children -no matter how much they beg you, because if you do, they will grow up hating you for it!

4.0 out of 5 stars All AMPed Up !, August 17, 2006

"Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi: The Genie and the Amp" is a real must have for Puffy fans and DS owners.

Puffy fans will like playing as either Ami or Yumi or both via two-player mode featuring interchangeable outfits and different types of guitars each with their own special powers.

DS owners will love the innovative touch screen that features touching with the stylus upon the guitar strings to unleash multiple attacks and combo attacks. You can also use the stylus to play different minigames including a special prize-grabber game and a sushi-making game.

So anyway, this game is about the two "J-poppusu" starlets looking for inspiration. They stumble across a magical genie in an old amplifier for some help. With the genie's powers, the girls go on a time-travelling tour in unique 3-D levels with tons of characters from the TV show. Use the guitars to attack the enemies and pickup cash for powerups and other things.

This is one of neatest DS games ever created. Perhaps the first one from Cartoon Network ! I hope you'll enjoy this game as much as I did.
