Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A relaxing and enchanting game
This game is so different from any of the other games I've seen for the Wii. Actually, it's more of a form of relaxation and discovery since the game story itself is very relaxed. You don't really have any heavy duty "requirements", you mostly just move along at your own speed, discovering the world beneath the ocean's surface.

The graphics are very good and once you figure out how to control your diver, it's very relaxing. There is some music and sounds in the game but you can also use and SD card to play your own mp3's. I just downloaded an mp3 album from amazon called "Heart of the Ocean" by Strong & Bryon that I'm going to listen to while playing the game that I think will add to the relaxation and general feeling. There are all sorts of fish, dolphins, whales, manta rays and other sea life to discover. You can interact by touching or petting them and you can feed them. There's information on the different creatures and you can record what you've discovered by saving it in a log back up on the boat by simply choosing to save the part of the game you're playing that day.

This is a good way to relax when you have a little time at the end of the day and just want to slow down your thoughts before sleeping.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great fun
Great game for those who love to explore. Universally appealing game with something for everyone, from the hardcore to their mothers. All of the qualities of a great game, simple concept(exploring the ocean) and wonderful execution. Though it can be quickly blazed through (around 8-10 hours) and the above water parts of the game are bad at best, it is still a wonderful game that everyone(YES, EVEN YOU!) should try.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome Game
The thing I love about this adventure is that it is both relaxing and stimulating at the same time. After working all day, I can come home and lose myself in a gorgeous, breathtaking ocean. I can also get lost in some pretty tough puzzles, like the things you need to do to complete the Ruins. I cannot think of any other game or adventure that has invoked such jaw-dropping awe in me. Sometimes I actually believe I am swimming along side a whale. How cool is that? And I have actually seen a few whales in real life!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better than Xanax
This is the most relaxing thing! My son got me this because I love the ocean, and I am mesmerized by the graphics and sounds. The first time I went in a blue hole, I couldn't take my eyes off the sun rays beaming down. It's the first thing I want to do now when I get home from my stressful teaching job. A few minutes (or an hour) in the deep blue does wonders! Probably not a must have for the typical gamer, but for ocean lovers who just want to escape it's a winner. I wish there were more games like this; I'd definitely get more use out of the family wii.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Decent game
This is a pretty decent game. Fairly easy to play for everybody. We haven't played the whole thing yet. The main negative thing is that it's tedious to get to each level. The beginning/ending sequences of each level are much longer than they need to be. Also, they are just subtitles that you read, so real young kids (like my 4 year old) can't play unless someone older helps them.
