BOOM BLOX, is the first game developed in collaboration between two giants of multimedia entertainment, Electronic Arts and director/producer, Steven Spielberg. Spielberg is obviously a master storyteller and so knows a thing or two about blockbusters, but he also no stranger to the gaming world. A long-time gamer himself, he conceived the original idea behind Lucas Art's PC/Mac title The Dig, but busting these BLOX is an entirely new concept. Levels and Levels of Fun
A Puzzle/Action game inspired by Spielberg's own search for a game that he would enjoy playing with his own kids, BOOM BLOX is designed specifically with the strengths and versatility of the Wii in mind.

 Great Fun! September 1, 2008
I bought this game for my son not knowing what to expect.
It is a big hit. After watching them play I didn't think it looked all that fun but then I gave it a try and I can see why the kids love it!
This has the option of a four player game which is great too.
This game is good for all ages! Have Fun!!

I purchased this for my son- 7 years old- and it is a lot of fun. It took him a while to get the concept, but once he did he has great fun. we still haven't figured out everything, but it's definitely worth buying.
 Even Mom can play August 20, 2008

Mom is seldom the one fighting to play the video games. Usually she is frowning and complaining that there are chores or homework or anything else more useful. But this is the first game Mom saw and thought "maybe this is ok". The games require some coordination in addition to logic and planning. The violence is equivalent to knocking down a house of cards or blocks, only more exciting. It's a winner

This game is just way to fun and addictive. Everyone in my family loves it. We have a 5 year old and a 15 year old and they love to compete against each other. I would definitely recomend it.

Don't buy this game. It's extremely disappointing. I was hoping for a sophisticated puzzle game (as it has consistently been advertised and reputed to be) with an interesting storyline (since a famous film director was involved in its production). Boasting a number of promising elements, the final product just fails to hang together in a satisfying way. The story is nearly non-existent (and what there is is infantile), and the puzzles are almost always either trivial or nearly impossible (or not puzzles at all). It is at best an addictive waste of time. And who in the world would want to create their own levels?
