Club Penguin Herberts Revenge

SCORE: 89

Kids games have come a long way in recent years. Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge is the perfect example of how far they have come. As an adult I enjoyed this Nintendo DS game. One of the coolest features in Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge is its connectivity to the clubpenguin.com account. If you are unfamiliar with this franchise, then let me explain briefly. Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge is part scavenger hunt, part spy game, and part mini game compilation. Don't worry it all fits together quite nicely.

Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge has some fantastic colors. Kids will love how alive this hand held game is in terms of graphics. There are some animations used in specific spots of this DS game. Moving the camera around the screens is easy to do. I found no offensive images while playing Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge.

I was not expecting humor from this franchise, but found it in Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge. There are also a lot of words of encouragement. Early on Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge teaches kids about teamwork. The music in Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge is excellent. I enjoyed the special effect sounds in this Nintendo DS game as well.

I already mentioned the website connection in Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge. On top of that there is also a connection to DGamer. If that is not enough for you, then there is single card, and multicard download play. Finally there are quite a few hidden items in Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge. This game encourages kids to interact with everything they can in this hand held game. I feel that Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge is worth the price of admission.

I appreciate games that make kids use their brains. Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge is one such game. Not only can items interact with the environment, some can be merged together. Puzzles can only be solved one way, and it is up to the player to find the right combination. Some make perfect sense, especially if you paid attention to earlier instructions. Mini games control well, and some are better than others. Everyone here at Family Friendly Gaming that tried Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge had fun.

Disney Interactive Studios put a lot of effort into Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge. I appreciate their efforts in creating a lengthy game (editor: ten missions included) that children can exercise their brains with. I already mentioned the lesson of teamwork, and there are additional lessons in Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge. Kids can learn to be observant, pay attention to details, and how to solve various puzzles. Club Penguin Herbert's Revenge is a worthy sequel, and I wonder how Disney Interactive Studios can top themselves.
