Mercury Meltdown Revolution is Great!!

Being a fan of games like Super Monkeyball, I got this game about a month or so ago because I thought it sounded cool. Once my copy arrived in the mail and I started playing it, I found it to be very fun. It is similar to the Monkeyball games in that you tilt the level to move, but in this game you control a blob of mercury rather than a ball. I find that this mercury blob is a bit easier to control than the ball in Super Monkeyball: Banana Blitz.

I think that this game is a very innovative new twist on the classic Marble Madness/Super Monkeyball style gameplay. I'm just surprised by how good this game is and how much content it has given the price!

As you progress through the game, the levels get trickier, but so far I find that they are all more than possible to complete. It just takes some practice, but if you stick with it, you will beat the level. The game will make you think sometimes, because the solution to a level is not always immediately obvious, but I think that's a good thing.

This game is just incredibly fun and can keep you busy for a long time. The game can be rather addictive too. :)

A fun puzzle game

I came in knowing almost nothing about this game and thinking its a good price and i need another Wii game that takes advantage of the Wii mote and my sisters can play I'll try this one out.

I was pleasantly surprised.

This is one of those games in which you sit down thinking, "I'm going to play for fifteen minutes", and then two hours later you are still playing and thinking i just need to beat one more level it will only take thirty seconds more.
It reminds me of some of the old school puzzles games that have a simple concept but are lots of fun (IE Tetris, Dr. Mario Chu Chu Rocket).
It is an easy to learn, hard to master kind of game with great replay value
the only down side is that none of the party games are as good as the main game.

I definitely recommend this game for novice and masters alike.

Worth the money.

I bought this game after seeing an ad for it in a magazine. The ad said that it was a bargain at the price it was listed at and that it is a great puzzle game. I have to agree. This game is a lot of fun bringing back memories from the first mercury game on the PSP and also taking me way back to the days of marble madness. This is a fun game that has pretty good graphics and has a good look and good control with the Wii remote. I would recommend this game, especially for the price.

Addictive!

This is a very addictive game! I bought it for my twelve years old son. At first he thought it was a boring game, but now he does not stop playing it!

Great Value - No multiplayer though

I have been enjoying this game since receiving it for Christmas. At only 20 bucks it's a great deal. The graphics and sound are nice and the gameplay is fun and challenging enough without being too hard. I was disappointed that when I managed to unlock the "party games" which I figured were multi-player; they are actually single player. Still, a great game and value.

Great Game

I haven't played video games since Atari. My niece and nephew are the video players now. But, I must say I love this game. It is so much fun. It is very easy to catch on to. Once you play you're hooked. I love it.

The best value game for the Wii

At $20, this game is the best value game there is for the Wii. Its average rating on the internet is between 8 and 9 out of 10, and frankly, the replay value and depth in the game pretty much make it a 10. It has over 100 different levels, all imaginative and fun, as well as unlockable party games for times when you just want to relax.

The game also makes great use of the Wii motion controls, they are intuitive and perfectly responsive. Hardcore gamers will appreciate the exact responsiveness of the controls and casual gamers will love the ease of picking the controls up and playing.

If you have a Wii, its a simple choice: buy this game. $20 is a steal for something of this high quality and honestly, I would have bought this game even if it were selling for $40 retail.

For the price you this is an excellent game!

I bought this game after reading some of the other reviews and am so glad I did. It is an excellent bargain at only $20 when they could easily charge $50. I love how the game has a ton of levels. Each lab has about 20 levels and if you pass enough levels you open up another lab. There are about 10 labs. In addition to having a bunch of different challenging courses I have a lot of fun going back and trying to beat my old scores or getting all the stars or doing the course without losing any mercury. In the reviews I read that after you open up enough labs the game becomes two-player but I only have one more lab to open up and it is still a one-player game. My partner and I still enough watching each other and trading off who plays. It's almost as fun to watch as it is to play. This is a great game and I am glad I bought it, especially considering that it costs about $7 just to rent a game. For that price you may as well buy this game.

One of the best overlooked games for Wii.

This is one of the best overlooked games for the Wii. The Wiimote works great and really makes the game so much better. If you're into casual, intuitive games this is not to be passed up.

Awesome Title For Entire Family!

This game has been incredibly fun for our whole family. The kids and we parents both enjoy it. The challenges get so interesting and hard to believe it fosters laughs as well. Some appear impossible, but after a little experimenting, they can be done as well. And this game really benefits from the Wii remote. I hope we see more games like this one being released!
