Two arcade titles meet up with puzzles, racers, and brick breakers.
This week’s free WiiWare demo is for Art of Balance.
DSiWare: Petz Catz Family, 800 Nintendo Points
This title has you playing with a family of cats. Play with them as they grow up, teach them tricks, have them run obstacle courses and learn each of their unique personalities.
DSiWare: Surfacer+, 500 Nintendo Points
The objective of this game is to cover the screen with white flowers. Control the size strategically and unleash bonuses, but avoid the enemies that will appear.
DSiWare: EJ Puzzles: Hooked, 500 Nintendo Points
This fishing-based Minesweeper-esque puzzle game will tease your brain. You’ll have to catch all the fish on the map in the proper order; if you go for one that’s too big, you’ll break your line. Mark the big fish for later and move to strategically catch all the fish you can.
WiiWare: JellyCar 2, 500 Nintendo Points
This game puts itself forth as a puzzle/racing title. The game contains 30 levels, as well as co-op and competitive multiplayer modes. Check your scores on the online leaderboards.
WiiWare: Soccer Bashi, 500 Nintendo Points
This inventive title combines Breakout with soccer. Destroy the blocks and try to get your ball into the goal, but watch out for the enemy defenders. This title includes 90 levels and several different play modes, including a level editor.
Arcade: Ghosts ‘N Goblins, 800 Nintendo Points
The classic 1985 arcade edition of this game hits WiiWare. Guide Arthur through the landscape as he defeats monsters in an attempt to save the princess.
Arcade: Exed Exes, 800 Nintendo Points
This vertical-scrolling shooter is another 1985 arcade hit. This insectoid shooter will have you blasting at enemies, collecting fruit and going for the high score.
Ghosts ‘N Goblins is always welcome, that’s a famous old game. Besides that, I’m sort of intrigued by Soccer Bashi. It seems like a game I might have fun with.
