Believe the hype. It's just FUN to mess around with, even just at the start screen!

Ok, I succumbed to the hype and picked it up on the way home. I haven't made it off the start screen yet (you can summon anything on the start screen and just mess around). I assume there's a game in here too, but I'm having too much fun just playing around.

I summoned a lorikeet, parakeet, and parrot, and they all look different!

I got a puma that kept trying to eat me so I got a lion tamer to keep it quiet. Then I got a saddle and put it on the lion and put the lion tamer on him and gave her a bazooka. To balance things I got an elephant and gave him a bazooka too. That didn't end well for anyone. So I got a jet pack and flew away (needed the jet pack to get over the crater).

Insanely great fun.

Even if the game portion has some issues with control and so forth, it's worth the $30 even just as an amazing tech demo and to mess around with. I have several DS titles that I just never got into, but in the first hour I feel like I've gotten more than my money's worth out of this one, and I really haven't even started playing yet!

Portable awesomeness.

It has indeed so far had literally everything I've asked it for. Just a stunning achievement in game development.

I would write more but I most go back and resume fooling around with the start screen some more!

P.S. the Dingo ate my Baby!
