SynopsisYou've left the Frontier behind and now the Medieval world unfolds around you. You pick your way through the halls of the castle with caution. With your trusty bowling ball in one hand and a fire hose in the other, you're ready for any challenge. You remember only too well how those chickens almost got the best of you last time. But wait, what's this? Monkeys have launched an attack and suddenly you're being pelted with baseballs. You dodge the baseballs and unleash the fire hose to give those sneaky monkeys a taste of real hydropower. Quickly you make your escape, but what awaits around the next corner?An entirely different world awaits you in Boom Blox ~ and there are actually five different worlds and no less than 300 levels. Brought to you in cooperation with renowned director and producer Steven Spielberg, Boom Blox is a creative thrill-ride filled with zany characters, mind-bending challenges and bizarre new places. Explore richly imagined environments, including, Tiki, Medieval and Haunted, and utilize crazy virtual tools ranging from fire hoses to lasers to blast your way through hundreds of exciting challenges. Encounter characters the likes of which you've never seen before, such as baseball-throwing monkeys and Blox-laying chickens. Make the game even wilder in Create mode, where you can unlock characters, worlds and props to build virtually anything you can dream up. In the thrill-a-minute settings of Boom Blox, the only limit is your own imagination.

My wife and I just had our 4th son and we were up playing Wii while she fed him...we ended up playing this game for 3hrs after the baby fell asleep! It's so easy to get into and the action and sounds affects are just awesome! This game is great for all ages. Make sure you have 4 Wii remotes and plenty of time before sitting down to play this game. Thank you Spielberg!
What's great about it: Uses all possible motions of the Wii Remote and has great multiplayer modes.
What's not so great: Some of the "grabbing" may be a little sensitive, but you get better at it :)
