Full description

Ask any two-year old with a set of building blocks, or any sixty-two year old with a pair of bowling shoes: It's hard to beat the simple enjoyment of "setting 'em up and knocking 'em down." Boom Blox is a game that plays on that simple enjoyment, designed to be family-friendly and easy for nearly anyone to pick up and play.

The game's main mode challenges players to toss onscreen objects at structures built with blocks, by performing a throwing motion with the Wii Remote. The object is to knock the structures down completely. Some blocks have special properties, such as being sticky or explosive, that can add to the challenge or be used to the player's advantage. There are options for single-player progression, multiplayer competitions, and also hundreds of puzzles and other mini-games that make use of the game's physics engine.

Editorial review

Source: Amazon

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.
