A cutesy kind of game with a bit of twist in its short(?) time limit and puzzle plus strategy-style game play. I did find the game short but definetly has replay. The time limit forces quick reactions (since days can really run out on you when you least expect them to). The graphics are fairly good-looking for what it's worth. (Then again, what do I care about graphics?)However, I didn't find the puzzles...puzzling. Basic startegy is all that's needed. Since it's been a while since GCN's release, I'd say that if you want a strategy game, wait a little bit or go out and get Advance Wars for your GBA. Heck, if you want puzzle stuff so much, dig out your old Gameboy and play some Tetris...but if you must play, rent.
