Feel the Magic: XY/XX Critic Reviews

Project Rub makes no use of the DS’s wireless communication feature, so there is no multiplayer event. Still, this off-beat gem is a must-have game for any fledgeling DS collection.

It's a work of mad genius.

Aesthetic beauty aside, Feel the Magic is a clear-cut winner in this pond of first generation launch titles. It's a nice little challenge with a well-permeated concept, which will be something you, your friends and your family will be able to pick up and play at any given moment well into the DS's lifespan.

More than any other launch title Feel the Magic was conceived and constructed to fully express the unique technological potential of the DS, and its Wario-inspired mini-games require quick reflexes, pinpoint accuracy, a steady hand, strong lungs, and a healthy sense of the absurd to successfully complete.

Fun is the simplest word to describe Feel the Magic. You will not find a more zany, unique, and varied game available. The story, graphical style, and games blend together to create a truly one of a kind experience.

A genuine treat, and even its short length doesn't hold me back from granting it my solid seal of approval.

A quirky title that can be fun, the first time around. Not being an avid collector of clothing for the girl in the game, I got bored with the game once I had beaten it the first time through.

Sonic Team’s nutty sense of style and humor saturates every last inch of this game, and the unconventional appeal and concept will attract gamers and non-gamers alike.

In one of the most bizarre games I’ve ever played, Sonic team has taken some elements of "WarioWare" and combined it with the style and quirkiness of a game like "Space Channel 5."

The game reminds me of "Wario Ware," except with longer mini-games and an arguably wackier presentation, which should make any gamer anticipate "Wario Ware Touched!" even more.

A very short game. That being said, it is also a very entertaining game.

It’s far from a killer-app or benchmark title, but it’s the best game of the launch crop and the only one that takes advantage of the hardware (save for the multiplayer), and thus a must-own if you’re really interested in the DS.

For what's ostensibly a collection of minigames, Feel the Magic seems amazingly cohesive.

A great game for showing off the capabilities of the DS, and fun while it lasts, even though it isn't long enough.

The music and sounds are perfect for the atmosphere the game is suppose to create. Feel The Magic is the game with everything it needs to be fun.

A fantastic game not only because it makes excellent use of the DS's special features, but also because of its unique visual style.

Amongst all the launch games for the DS, this quirky dating game is the one that really captured our hearts and pulled us back.

Fortunately, the game often lets you bypass annoying games in favor of entertaining ones, so the ratio of fun to aggravation is pretty good.

It's stylish, slick, appealing and wouldn't look all that far out of place dancing itself silly in an Austin Powers film. Everything is clean, pure cut and concise.

All of the mini games are pretty fun to play. They're definitely something refreshingly different from anything you've played before. However, they're short.
