Game life's review 9.0 IGN's Review 8.0Sure it may be a PS2 port except with the Wii version having widescreen and 480p and uses essentially none of the Wii's special features and the primary control scheme is the classic controller (but fear not you can use the Wii remote NES style or gamecube controllers) it doesn't mean that the game sucks, on the contrary the game is a fine example what a fun multiplayer game is.
It's like mario party because you get the familiar board game and spinners and positive or negative consequences depending on where you land. However you can pick different character classes each with the positives and negatives for balance, random monster battles, boss monsters or even player vs player battles. So with that in mind there is more depth, some strategy. From both reviews available their main complaint is no online and it's a shame that the Wii version didn't have online.
