Not as easy or as fun as I had hopedJul 04, 2009
By Jadecat I got this for my 8 year old daughter who loves to draw. We found it a bit frustrating at first. She had trouble climbing up slopes, and then we realized she was using the wrong color crayon. The game seems to move along pretty fast, your character keeps moving until you redirect him/her. Too often my kid wasn't fast enough to draw something and would lose the chance to get her bonus items. She shut the game off in frustration a few times. I then asked her if she could just go to the drawing section of the game and she said she hadn't earned that yet. I haven't confirmed if you really have to earn the coloring/drawing section, but my older daughter played around with the game, and I think if it was available she would have found it. Thank goodness I got a decent deal on the game, if I would have paid full price, I would not have been happy. All in all, if I could go back in time, I would pass on this one. Instead my kids just got Sims Kingdom, and they have really been into that one.

Crayola + Lemmings = DisappointmentDec 27, 2009
By roarin2 I should have more closely read some of the reviews for this product. We purchased this game for a 3 year old boy thinking this would have some age appropriate games (the artwork and crayola marketing seemed to indicate that would be the case - it even touted coloring pages). Unfortunately that's not what this game is.
The basic premise sounds good enough... the story character has been sucked into a crayola book where evil goblins are "gobbling up" all the colors. Fillup (or Violet) travel mindlessly through the world (you don't control them except to draw objects to impede their progress or help them over an obstacles). Using a palette of 4 crayons that each possess a different property you draw shapes in the air that form planes the characters can travel across to recover the crayons that have been hidden throughout the world and make it safely to the exit. The game play is a lot like the popular computer game series Lemmings - though the puzzles and the options for solutions are a lot less interesting. In my opinion, for what it's worth, this game would be most appropriate for children from about 7 - 10 but not intended for children much younger than that (despite the package) and honestly not interesting enough to keep kids much older involved.
If you like Lemmings you MAY enjoy this game. Then again, if you really like the Lemmings games you may want to forgo this purchase and wait for the "real" thing. Overall 2 stars.

Just what my daughter needed!!!Apr 01, 2009

Being a single mother and working 40 + hours a week doesn't always allow me the time I would like to take to make sure the games I buy for my daughter are 'right' for her. I was depending on the Crayola name and it worked flawlessly! The game is very entertaining and I find my self 'hoping' that my daughter gets stuck in a particular area so that I can 'figure' it out for her! I think I enjoy this game as much as she does. Great graphics, and the using the Wii remote is not too hard to use either! We really enjoyed it and Crayola comes through with another great one!

Not for young childrenMay 18, 2010
By H. Morgan I bought this game thinking it would be great for my four year old who loves the Wii. I turned out to be way beyond his level of play. I have have managed to beat most of it on easy (at the insistence of the four year old), but I'm not sure how anyone under the age of ten could. The character moves to quickly and it is difficult to find the objects you need. Even the coloring pages you can unlock are too difficult for my son.

TERRIBLE gameMay 06, 2010

My kids are pretty good at Wii (they have mastered Mario Brothers, Mario Galaxy, Mario Kart, etc.), but they weren't able to do this game without help. I tried to help them, but I even got frustrated with it. The pointer doesn't hold steady enough for you to really draw. The game boasts coloring pages, but you have to unlock those, and we haven't been able to even after days and days of work. I think we're going to take this one to our local game trader and get something more interesting. Save your money and skip this game!
