SpeedX 3D Hyper Edition Review

Obvious game has obvious problems.

If you were to ask a thousand people for a 3D game idea, every last one of them would come up with SpeedX 3D Hyper Edition. Some ideas might have a little less hyper and some a little less X, but the same concept would be blurted out of the mouths of everyone polled. That’s no reason to dismiss the idea of a game where you zip through a tunnel and dodge obstacles, because the concept is a pretty solid one with a lot of potential.  SpeedX 3D Hyper Edition takes this obvious idea and gives it an entirely acceptable treatment, proving that this is a completely viable game idea – it’s just not very exciting.

Carmen Sandiego Adventures in Math: The Case of the Crumbling Cathedral Review

And I thought the other games in the series were short!

After the abduction of the Statue of Liberty and Big Ben, as well as the subsequent arrests of two V.I.L.E. criminals, you'd think the V.I.L.E. crew would lay low for a while. Instead, they've gotten more ambitious than ever, stealing the St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow as well as the pyramids straight out of Egypt. With the most linear quest yet, The Case of the Crumbling Cathedral is the shortest of the three episodes currently available on the Wii Shop Channel.

Carmen Sandiego Adventures in Math: The Big Ben Burglary Review

This time Big Ben is missing.

The Big Ben Burglary is the second case in the ongoing episodic production of Carmen Sandiego Adventures in Math. As such, it features the same Professor Layton inspired gameplay from the The Lady Liberty Larceny, with the exception that the puzzles are more rooted in mathematics than general puzzle solving. This makes for a quest that's a bit duller than the first, in addition to being even briefer.

Carmen Sandiego Adventures in Math: The Lady Liberty Larceny Review

Do it Rockapella!

Funny enough, I never realized that Carmen Sandiego began as a computer game series, only later hitting TV screens with Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?. As such, Carmen Sandiego Adventures in Math: The Lady Liberty Larceny is more a return to form than a modern adaptation of a childhood classic. Thankfully, the developers have applied some modern game design to the over 20 year old franchise, taking cues from the Professor Layton series. While on the short side, this adventure in math will provide some reasonably challenging math-based puzzles for the proper age group as well as a cursory glance at some world geography.
