Cozy Fire
SCORE: 90
We have one of those DVD's that plays a
fire as it burns in the fireplace. We absolutely love that DVD,
especially around Christmas time. When I heard about Cozy Fire on the
Wii, I was intrigued. Could it be done better on the home console? And
for half of the price of the DVD. So I put in our request to receive a
reviewable copy of Cozy Fire. When it arrived I was very excited to
download it.
Cozy Fire is not really a video game in the traditional sense. There are
no levels to complete, and there is no real goal. With that said Cozy
Fire is one of the best downloadable games I have ever played on the
Wii. Cozy Fire expands the Wii beyond a video game machine into
something more. I am not sure exactly what that is, but I like it.
There are six different types of fire places in Cozy Fire - fire alone,
campfire, rustic, classic, elegant and Zen fireplaces. There are
numerous different kinds of logs that can be put into the fire. The fire
functions realistically, and the game will only allow so many logs at
once. I found Cozy Fire to be very relaxing, especially the campfire
location.
Cozy Fire reminds me of all those wonderful fires I had as a boy. The
crackling of the wood is a distinctive sound, and this game has captured
it. My only complaint is the volume is really low, and needs to be
turned up. That is such a minor thing that it is barely worth a mention.
Cozy Fire is such a soothing game that I found myself falling asleep
because I enjoyed it so much.
At first I was not very happy about Cozy Fire limiting me on the logs.
Then I realized there is only so much screen. Logs can be stirred via
the Wii Remote if you are not used to enjoying something this cool. The
non-stop mode is fantastic especially if you want to enjoy the fire
without having to add new logs. Butler mode has the game put additional
logs on the fire for you. Personally I enjoyed controlling it myself.
Cozy Fire is only 500 points on the Wii which is an amazing price in my
opinion. I really appreciate dtp young entertainment publishing this
title. This game expands the video game industry and shows the world
that there is more to this industry than blowing things up. I hope there
are more games like Cozy Fire in the future. It was my pleasure to
review this Wii game.
