Good Points:
An interesting game based off of the popular(?) party game. You play as one of 4 various items (a pair of pumps, a doll, a trumpet, etc.)., and you have to move around a board, collecting different colored pieces so you can move onto the next board. The first person to complete all 3 boards is the winner. The challenge is in guessing the pictures so you can collect each colored square. So, does this party game hold it's own as a Nintendo game, or does it fail to draw any points?

Graphics: Not much of a winner here. Nothing is well drawn! It's all average.

Sound Effects: Don't even get me started.

Music: Look at the sound effects.

Originality: Sure, it's an original idea (never been done before, and probably won't be done again). That doesn't save this game.

Play Control: Too many times I move to select a letter, and I press on the wrong one. It's too muddy!

Enjoyment: This game is marginally better if you have more players. That just makes it more fun to deal with, because then you're competing against actual intelligent players.

Challenge: I swear, even on VERY HARD does this game suck. It's too easy! I can guess just about every single picture (except for the ones on the third board) as soon as they're seen!

Ending: Oh boy, I won. Whoopty-freakin'-do!


Bad Points:
Well, this is a party game. It's like Mario Party, without Mario, and without the enjoyment. I'm going to go play Goldeneye now, a REAL game with competition.
