Perfect - we love it. [Posted on 2007-06-15]
I love this game. It has a great story and plenty of action, and quite challenging.



My son (5yrs) loves playing this with me, and I don't mind playing with him since this is good safe stuff - and he can improve his dexterity, explore and learn to solve puzzles. I like the fact that being smart and stealthy is rewarded... and that this is NOT a shoot-up-the-baddies-and-watch-them-bleed game.



There are great sub games like the races, and the smugglers caves that allow you to keep playing the game after the adventure is done. Graphics is good, mouse + cursor movement works well. The Last fight is a worthy climax + ending.

DO NOT BUY IF YOU HAVE A NIVADIA VIDEO CARD
seriously, it wont work with the latest drivers.
the game is a poor port too, buy it for a console instead if you can

Beatiful Graphics & Good Sound Track [Posted on 2007-10-23]
Starts at home to travel to island with hover craft the later upgrade to jump kit to hop over water and border and upgrade to rocket ship to fly around and to the moon, goes on races with hispanic sound track, fight strage creatures with a stick, through CDs, and bat stuff at them, lots of interactive and some detective work, play games games with Francis kinda like air hockey though push all 5 puck to other side first to win, kinda silly cute game, characters, strange creatures, snap pictures for credits is her job, fought major characters to gain control of island and rewards, Jade should have long hair if she's girl, maybe she decide to let her hair grow for next version of game...

Quick Review! [Posted on 2007-11-22]
Bad News First:

1. Controls. Very frustrating. Mouse/keyboard controls can be hard to use when angles are turned around. Also, extra mouse buttons (4,5,6) cannot be mapped.

2. Camera. It's bad enough that camera angles turn you around at the most inopportune moments, but sometimes they lock at angles where the mouse doesn't move restricting your view.

3. Fighting. You only have a handful of attacks that do not improve much through out the game.

4. Saving. There are save areas instead of saving wherever you like. This really isn't so bad since if your character dies you start off before certain areas.

Good News:

1. Visual design. Jaw-dropping, beautifully designed landscapes. Very few games are as clever and intricate in the construction of the buildings and land. Stunning. The Lighthouse is amazing.

2. Character designs. Unique, quirky and cool. Many species and variations there of.

3. Action. The fight sequences are exciting as well as the "running" scenes! Not to mention the "matrix-esque" photography for a certain move.

4. Tag-teams. Pey'j and Double H are used along the way to help in fights and traps that need to be unlocked.

5. Photography. Not the game's design photgraphy but Jade's camera! You take your own personal pictures or the photos of the animals on Hilly for $!

6. Acting. Terrific voice acting! My personal favorite was the barrel-chested soldier Double H.

7. Music. Riveting compostions that vary in certain situations. My favorite track though is a Brazilian-type music that you hear during the races.

8. Racing. Lots of fun and you win pearls that are needed in the game to purchase items.

All in all the use of the above pros are well directed into a unique experience. It's a terrific game!

PS: Anyone else catch the very end of the credits? Sea-quill!

I loved this game! [Posted on 2008-05-16]
The story line was great with purpose, meaning and heart; the graphics were beautiful; wage earning was interesting and different; and the music, ambiance and voice acting were all very well done. The interface was easy and cool. I thoroughly enjoyed sneeking around the world or Hillys and her moon. Ah, those Alpha Sections were too funny with their dialog and actions when under attack. And the cut scenes were sweet with action and drama. Please, please, please, Michel Ancel make a squel! And Ubisoft, please be smart enough to support it!!!
