Great fun without much thought, Jan 9 2005

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: Mr. Driller - Drill Spirits (Video Game)
Some games are complex - and some are just fun! Drill Spirits is great puzzle fun in the Tetris theme - but with more of a dig dug sort of problem.In essence you start at the top of a pile of bricks. You drill your way down them, looking for air, watching the blocks explode if they match up with similar colored blocks. Some levels are easy, with lots of similar blocks to vanish for you. Other levels are far more complicated, with more colors to manage.
Levels can replayed many times, learning their layout so that you get through them as quickly as possible. With the dual screen, you can keep track of what block piles are up above you as you drill your way down.
This is a great game for quick playing as you wait in line - you don't have to think a lot about what you are doing, but it is very capitvating. So many studies have shown that keeping your brain exercised helps it stay healthy that I would highly recommend this game for anyone from age 5 to 105. It's easy to understand how to play - but it can be challenging for anybody. There are many levels of difficulty as well as a 'shop' to buy new items.
Highly recommended for any DS owner!

Namco sends over a neutered driller, Feb 13 2005

This review is from: Mr. Driller - Drill Spirits (Video Game)
Fans of Mr. Driller in North America should be used to getting shafted by now. Drill Spirits is the first driller game to come this way since the Dreamcast and Gameboy Color games, and a good one it is too. Pressure mode gives you an actual boss to fight, and Mission Driller is classic Mr. Driller.But for some reason, we are getting only about 60% of the game (though we pay 100% of the price) The concurrent Japanese version contains an additional mode, called Doristone Mode that gives a totally new angle to the gameplay, it is slower moving and more puzzle like, very unique and fun to play. Mission Driller adds a 2000M Moon level with modified graphics and special power ups. The game supports single card multiplayer (in America every player needs a card), and there are apparently more unlocable characters in the game (though I've yet to find them).
Anyway, all that stuff is absent from the American version; the import would run around $40-$50 dollars; so if you can't afford that, and don't mind getting the ripoff version of the game, this cart is the way to go.
The game itself is excellent, fast paced and fun. It's just too bad it's not all here. And the reason for the short shrift we're getting is just inscrutable. So um, bite me Namco.

This is one tough game, Jan 7 2005

Maybe I am just not up on my button mashing, but I am having a heck of a time playing this game! No, I am not letting that detract from my review - it just means I have some more playin' to do.It is tough game play, though I am sure most kids are not going to have any issues with it. It is a simple "pick it up and play" game - not a lot of reading of the instruction manual is needed. It is one of those simple games that can drive ya crazy.
Very addicting.
