I talked about this game in chat earlier, haha. Well, in this game, you help the hero Maxwell collect "Starites" to complete a level. To do so, you solve puzzles by writing down practically almost anything (I heard that it recognizes more than tens of thousands of words, with "corgi" being one of them :D), and that would come to life. Then, you use that object to help solve the puzzle, i.e. I would type "ladder" or "wings" or even "sniper rifle" to bring it to life in the game so Maxwell can bring an apple down a tree. This game is really interactive and the scenario changes every time you conjure up something different.
I too, would highly recommend this game to any DS owner, especially to those who like solving puzzles and/or possess a great imagination.

Exactly Aj! :) I think its the more creative and the faster you solve a level the more points you get.
Like if I just used a net to capture a bee I would beat the level but it wouldn't be creative enough.
now if I used a UFO with a lazer attached to it.. that would get me more points hahahah.
It won a lot of awards during the last E3 and has a high score on a lot of gaming sites.
The only bad thing I've heard/noticed was controlling maxwell can be quite annoying at times... the worst is when your trying to grab an object and he keeps running to the spot instead. Sometimes killing himself in the process :/.
I think I spent a few hours last night in the intro screen just creating things and trying to figure out how to interact with em.
And yes... yes you can put a sniper rifle on the corgi LOL
Hahah we should have a challenge who can beat all the levels with a corgi lol
