It’s that time of year, when a girl’s thoughts turn to video games and relieving stress by going into her virtual world by playing video games. Unfortunately, I’ve been sick. So that meant I had to let my husband test drive my new “Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time” game for Nintendo Wii. I am crushed. However, now have an excuse to boot him off the game system since I haven’t gotten to play! Being the nice wife I am, I kindly nagged asked him to write a review so I could share it with everyone, and since ‘Tis the Season, thought I would give a copy away!
Since my wife is an Ubisoft Champion and my son and I like video games, we got chance to play the new “Raving Rabbids: Travel In Time” video game for the Nintendo Wii. We have other Raving Rabbids titles in the series so we kind of had an idea of what to expect, but since I don’t play as much as I’d like to, this also gave me a chance to see how quickly you can pick the game up and get acclimated to it.
Overall it’s an entertaining game. The time travel aspect is a nice twist and the fact you do your time travel via a washing machine is both funny and wacky; kind of like your favorite uncle coming over for dinner. Just don’t pull his finger. My son and I probably enjoyed beating each other up (just shake the Wii remote when you’re close to the other player) as much as actually playing the game. His character’s profile is dressed as Napoleon, mine as a Pharaoh. Whether it was shooting rabbits in the shootarium or flying in the flyarium, there’s lots to do in this game.
If there was one thing I’d change on the game it would be the way you fly your plane. I’d prefer it if you could do the flying a bit more simply instead of using both the Nunchuk and Wii Remote to steer the plane, but that’s just my preference.
Peanut loves the game. During my convalescence, I have been laying on the sofa watching him play and he makes the flying look quite effortless. I will take some photos of him later today to post. If it were me? I would be crash landing each time, kinda like my dear hubby.
