Demo Reviews: Bit.Trip Beat: Combination of Pong & Arkanoid set to music. Demo supports 2 player co-op, but it ends just when it gets challenging. My Life as a Darklord: puzzle/RPG/strategy-game where you build up an evil tower to defend against waves of invading good-guys. Surprisingly, this is the one I would be most likely to buy. Kindred Spirits: You play a Kid Icarus-like chick without a weapon. It's a platformer where can you use the wii remote to drag giant structures around to help you. Enjoyable gimmicks, but its kinda ugly. Pokemon Rumble: You control pokemon in an overhead beat-em-up. Demo lets you play 4 stages and ends right right when you get a lvl 100 pokemon able to fight in the Royal Rumble. Horrible presentation and boring gameplay unless you really like your pokemon. World of Goo: puzzle game where you build structures out of a limited number of goo balls. Probably still the best and most polished WiiWare game there is. Demo lets you play the whole first level.
