Eek, a little too high for me.. ah well.. at least it's not $40 like Zoo Keeper WAS..

think it worth it... a pretty good game !

The game includes 100 puzzles with some of them being *very* hard (damn you, yen sign!).
You can also create or exchange (via password or code) another 100 puzzles, for example there are 32 nice ones on Nintendo's homepage.
That said, I don't really like the challenge mode but the puzzles alone are worth the game.

I think I might pick this up. Not that many "brain-teaser" puzzle games that are made these days anymore. I love Lumines and will likely love Meteos as well, but those are fast paced puzzle games, so this should make for a nice counter-point. Then up, Another Code!

I've been saying this game is far too limited to be "the next tetris" ever since it launched last year. Hell, my girl tossed it to the side within a day, and went back to Band Brother.

Yeah, my fiancee did the same with Yoshi's Touch N' Go.



But then picked it back up the next day. And the next. And the next. :lol

Not to boast, but the puzzles aren't THAT hard...anyone with a logical mind can start seeing patterns orknow that certain things can't be done to solve the puzzles, or see 'dead-ends', where the one stroke line should begin or end. Stuff like that. I really wish the game went beyodn the two colour mode. I'm sure there could've been somthing in having multiple colours and stuff. Maybe a meter on the side telling you that your stroke was going to be red, greeen, green, blue, red, red, green, yellow. Or something.

Yes, simplicity good, but as it is there aren't enough modes to keep the interest up very long. Once you feel you've mastered the puzzles, it doesn't seem like there could be a puzzle to REALLY challenge you. And the challenge mode becomes boring. I hate sitting through level 3, when single lines drop one by one. Painful.

I'm all for puzzle mode, but I remember doing the ones in chu chu rocket GBA... after a while, they got mind-numbingly hard. There were 2500+ in that game, but the action modes were a lot more fun. I would want Polarium to have a strong action mode, because once you beat the puzzles, that's it for them.

Get Zoo Keepers instead. Also, just import Meteos. No use in waiting three months for that game when you can have it now. Polarium is a waste of money. Not even worth $20.

Meteos = 2 months, not 3, silly.

Polarium is very fun. They could have spent longer with it to flesh it out a bit more though. But I'm liking it. worth it if its cheaper.
