User Reviews about Where the Wild Things Are: The Videogame
My six year old son has played many a Wii game this past year, but this one has very quickly become one of his very favorites. Why? It's so very beautiful and it really allows him to use his imagination. The challenges are somewhat basic but they're all exhilarating, mainly because the world you explore is fascinating and rich. Without question his favorite thing to do is fly with the use of Douglas's feathers; he spends a lot of time in the village flying to explore and then hugging the various wild things before dancing with them. Clearly there's something about this game that frees his imagination -- when he thinks I'm not listening, I hear him making up stories and games he plays with the wild things as they run and dance around the village. As a parent I really like this game much better than the others we have, as it's much less violent and much more imaginative and interactive than most. [Indeed, I have to sometimes encourage him to knock down plants with his sceptre because he would much rather grow Judith a pretty garden -- that's a change!] -- Wildly imaginative!
Pros-
Spyro like game play
Like the movie and book
Easy trophies
Fun
Cons-
Constant button mashing and blocking
1 basic attack
Too repetitive

Your hands will hurt and your head will hurt, but is it worth a rent, yes. 1 play though and its enough for me. -- Hands and head hurts
I just recently purchased a Wii system about 4 months ago and rented this title for my son. It was new and I thought it might be fun. well he was a little intimidated by it after he found out the monsters attack him after he throws a dirt ball at them.. My son is only 5 years old, SSooooooooOOO? anyway he stopped playing it but i continued to play it cause well i did'nt have any games at the time cept for the stupid Wii sports that came with the console!! I finished it in like 2 and a half days.. This game is actually pretty cool-!! It has great graphics like the scenery and good renderings, very pleasant to look at! Controls are pretty smooth and easy to master. Levels are easy but challenging, not too frustrating!! The replay is also good on this game because you can go back and find new things and unlock stuff. The free roam is fun as well since you have many places to explore and go to!! All in All not a bad game, I've seen many worthless titles on the Wii and this game is above average, nice and fun!! 4 out of 5 stars... -- Not as Bad as you Heard!..
this is a very cute game lots of fun for a 10 and under child my son loves it -- very cute game
I got this game for my boyfriend. He is an adult, and even he has a hard time figuring out what the next step is. This is not as user friendly as it should be. -- Why did they do it that way?
