LET THE BUYER BEWARE!!! (Not a good buy!)
3 of 7 people found this review helpful.
Having played all the games a few times I can now say this game cartridge is a waste, unless you are buying it for Battleship!!!! (DSI was very sloppy on this 3-pack.)
Battleship:
This game works correctly (as far as I noticed) like the classic version we all know and love. You can either play the regular single shot per turn game, or the 1 shot per ship you have left each turn style.
Risk:
This game works like the board game for the most part, but has the following problems. The computer players will attack any territory they can as long as they have 1 army more that the defender. They will continue to attack until they have only 1 army on each of their territories or they cannot attack with greater odds.(For instance if they have 3 armies and you have 3 armies they will not attack.) This amounts to a very, very simple victory. You can usually win in 4 turns. They also don't try to break into continents to keep you from getting extra armies. Also, when you wipe-out a player you do not get their cards like in the classic board game. This is a real bummer.
Clue:
This game has the most bugs/errors in it. They range so widely and are so different from game to game that you almost can't tell what's going on!!! Sometimes you will have a card to disprove a suggestion, but the computer just says you cannot disprove the statement!!! Sometimes you narrow the options down to the final 3 and make your accusation and it says you're wrong! Also, when a computer makes a suggestion or accusation, their picks of culprit and weapon flash so quickly you can hardly read them. The game is just too fast. This really takes the logic and extra info you can learn by paying attention out of the game. There are just too many problems with it to be worth your money. DSI did a terrible job on this one!!!!!
All in all I would say this game is a waste of your time and money. Read some of the other reviews for this title and you will see where other had the same problems.
Other DSI 3-packs sound to have similar problems with them too. BE SURE TO READ THE REVIEWS BEFORE BUYING THEM!!!
