"A decent chat system for the DS"

Reviewed by RhinoJedi

Game play: 7/10- The overall game play of this “game” is really just based on chatting and acquiring coins to update your avatar. Building your avatar is fun and there are many combinations of items to fit your creative vision. This is mainly for multiple players but can be used for single player chatting too. Speaking of single player mode, there are only 3 single player games. These, after awhile, get repetitive and you then want to beat your head on a wall screaming “WHY OH WHY DO I HAVE NO FRIENDS!”. During multi-player the games are better, but still seem repetitive. This also takes the new content download of the DS to a new level allowing you to copy the game to up to 7 people for a limited amount of time.

Sound 3/10: Sound? Oh you mean that elevator music crap that makes you want to cut your ears off. Though throughout the game you can “buy' new music to fit your needs. Still, the music is rather bad.

Controls 5/10: You only use the touch screen. That's it!You never use the buttons or the shoulder buttons(L and R). The Touch pad, which is pretty easy to use…right? Yes! Except for in this game, they make the letter keys way to small and since typing is the key role in this game that's quite bad. That's all I could find wrong with controls.

Graphics 8/10: nice little comic like characters or “avatars' as they call them. Everything looks as it should. You can tell the sunglasses are sunglasses and that the army vest is an army vest.

Food for thought: if you really want this game I don't mean to bring you down by this review. It's a good game you just need to realize it's flaws.Buy it if you would like it's your choice. My advice (if you want it) would be. To at least wait until the price drops.

Thank you for reading. Happy Ping Paling.
