uDraw: SpongeBob SquigglePants - Nintendo Wii

I bought this for my 7 1/2 year old and he really likes it. It is really fast paced and he has to do some of the levels a few times to get through them. The game has a weird set up. You have to "clear" 20 levels of activities you can do on the tablet. Such as tapping, flicking, drawing, etc. Some of the instructions aren't very clear. But you get 5 times to make a mistake, so the level can be cleared. Some of them go pretty fast before you even realize how the heck you're supposed to do it. But all in all, good game.

I bought this game for my youngest son who is an autistic computer whiz. He was a little frustrated until he got the hang of this game with having to do each picture level several times to reach the 20 activities to beat the program that moves very fast. The game is challenging and moves VERY fast, but mostly I was disturbed at how Patchy the Pirate talks to the kids between their tries to win the 20 tasks. If the player does not clear a level, for example, he calls them a "Loser" as he puts his finger in the shape of an "L" up to insinuate that people are stupid. My husband and I are VERY uphappy with this. My husband got up and walked away from the game. How insulting to call people names. Negative reinforcement that a child is a loser when they are supposed to be having fun really made me upset. Video games are a challenge no matter who you are, but no one should be called a loser. Ever. The game is too hard and has a negative overtone. Buy the Wii or DS game or movie instead.
