 Too Hard to control for young kids June 19, 2008
This was too hard for my 4 and 7 year old to control. They couldn't play the game because you have to control it by placing a cursor in the direction you want the cat to go and then making it go there. They couldn't keep the cursor on the screen. Even I couldnt control it good enough to win the first mini-game race. I would not recommend this for young children at all.
So-So All Around June 1, 2008
Petz Catz2 delivers only a so-so game experience. The game is clearly targeted at younger users, however, it involves a tremendous amount of reading. This is fine for my seven year old, but my five year old is frustrated by the never-ending series of dialog pop-ups. Also, while it claims to be two-player friendly, only very limited mini-games are available in two-player mode. The primary, story-driven game is single player only. I really wanted to like this title for my children, but I can't recommend it at all due to lackluster game play, poorly thought-out controls, and over-reliance on sometimes complex reading for younger children to further the storyline.
 Wonderful game for younger kids! April 27, 2008

We bought this for our 7-year-old son. He is obsessed with cats and we hoped he would enjoy it. The game title and cover are misleading, as we thought it would be a game that involved taking care of cats. Instead, these are not "pet" cats at all. It's an adventure where your lead character cat has to save it's little town (and the world?) from an evil wolf who has taken control of the "Magic Hat." Our son was a little disappointed at first, but after he was past the training part of the game, he got really into it and now loves to play it. I'm not sure how long it will take him to complete the game, but it was only $10 now so I'm not worried about it. I really like that helping others is a central theme of the game, it's nonviolent (besides throwing rocks at snakes), and it is really cute. I would recommend this for boys and girls ages 6 or 7 through 10. There is quite a bit of reading involved to understand the required tasks.
Purr-fect! January 21, 2008

I'm surprised by the negative reviews on this game. Our family absolutely loves this game! We have several Wii games, and this has been our kids' favorite since we bought it two months ago. My son is 7 and my daughter is 4 1/2, and they both love it. The cover picture makes it look like it is a cutesy girly game, but it is not. I would say the ideal target audience for this game would be boys and girls, ages 4-10. There are dozens of cats to choose from to play. There are so many lands to explore. The reviewer who said that their child "beat the game" quickly must have been playing the game for 72 hours straight, because my kids have gotten over 2 months enjoyment out of this game and aren't even close to "beating it" yet. What we like most about it is that it is a happy and positive game for kids... The lands are so beautiful and detailed, the cats adorable (without being cutesy), the play is very positive (mostly doing helpful things for other cats in the neighborhood), and each land has its own unique and pleasant background music. (No violence, no scary images, no complicated rules of play.) I think this game would appeal to older kids as well. If your child (boy or girl) likes animals, they will definitely like this game.
 DON'T JUDGE A GAME BY ITS COVER!!!! :( January 2, 2008

i thought it was going to be a game that you could have forever and not get tired of it. i thought you were going to take care of a kitten and watch it grow up, play with it, feed it, and unlock other cats to play with. that's what i got from the case. but i was wrong. it is completely the opposite. you do quests, and you can dress the cat up in outfits you have to buy and find. and thats it! no caring for an animal! complete let down. i thought this would be a perfect wii game, so my daughter could interact. i looked for reviews and i couldn't find many. and the ones i did find said you were caring for animals. yea ones you have to help. SO IF YOUR LOOKING FOR A GAME THAT INTERACTS WITH THE ANIMALS DON'T GET THIS ONE!!!!
