This shows that Microsoft and Nintendo don't mix very well together!
Despite all this, I personally think Microsoft actually put effort into this game, but as a whole it dosn't work for a handheld. The game sees you looking after animals... sort of, it's more about you're money compared to the animals wellfair. You personally have no intervention of where things go, all you do is decide where everything gos... lame!
For the first day or two this game is quite addictive and would have got 7.5 if it held up, but all of a sudden it's not fun to play. The decoration and customisation of you're zoo is quite fun, but like most games like this such as the Sims it gets very boring very quikly.
The controlls with the pen can be too clunky, and there are some things you can't undo so it's easy to mess up. This game by all means is worth playing for a bit if you get it for free, but it's just not something you want to spend money on.
All in all, if you like Sims this is an OK game, not even as good as Sim's but harvest moon is superior in every way!
