--Cheeseroller--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

Excuse me while I puke. No no no. Not worth it. You first must try to GUESS WHAT KIND OF CHEESE. Then you must PAY AN OBSCENE AMOUNT OF NEOPOINTS FOR THE CHEESE. Then you must ROLL THE CHEESE DOWN THE HILL. Then you find out you've won absolutely nothing. That's right, no Neopoints (Unless you get lucky) And you don't even get to keep the cheese! What a rip-off! I spent nearly 1000 NP on a Purple Spotted Cheese and got nothing! Nothing! Blech!

--Extreme Herder--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

This is like Kau Korral only with an enemy. Get the Petpets close to Balthazar first, then concentrate on getting the rest. You will succeed, I promise! At first, I knew I would hate this game, but much like Shapeshifter, it is an acquired taste. If you want an easy game to get a few Neopoints on, this is it

I liked the Goldfish game, so I'm glad they made a Neopets version. It's somewhat easy yet hard, and that really helps. Plus you get a decent amount of Neopoints, which is even better as the Goldfish Game gave you a pathetic amount

--Gadgadsgame--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

Um...well, could be worse. No, this game is actually interesting. I haven't figured out exactly what to do, but it is basically...well, it is what Dubloon Disaster is to Meerca Chase...it's the souped up Chute (Tetris) Only in this case, the game is better than the original. I never really liked Chute (I think it went POOF and disappeared) but I do like Gadgadsgame. Not bad, but it could be better...better explained that is

--Guess the Weight of the Marrow--

Ha ha ha...no. You have a better chance of winning the Jackpot on Dice-a-roo then guessing the exact weight of this freakin' vegetable

--Kiss the Mortog--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

This is the souped up Dice-a-Roo. Same plot line, and any of the frogs could knock you out of the game and you lose all your Neopoints earned...but you can also stop at anytime you want and run...exactly what I did. I got 300 and couldn't risk it. For you risk takers out there, this is the game for you (Like me)

--MAGAX: Destroyer--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

It's no secret I hated the Powerpuff Girls game this game was based on, and I'll say it now, I'm not to fond of this one either. The fact that you have to wait about ten seconds when you want to stop and turn around just kills it. If you could stop faster, the game would be great. Really.

Math. In the summer. Need I say more? Actually, I do. Ladies and gentlemen, what is 7 times 8? 56, I do believe. It's a sad world when you know more than the computer

--Plushie Tycoon--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

Perfection. This is a game inside a game. It really requires the use of knowledge and of logic. There's not much more that can be said. It's up to you what kind of material and accessories you want to buy. But always think ahead, kind of like with Shapeshifter

--Shapeshifter--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

This was my favourite normal game released this month. It's like one of the challenges you'd see on Survivor or The Mole. One that requires logic. Mind bending solutions that you have to examine over and over. Sure it's hard as heck, but I like mind bending puzzles. If you don't...well, sorry. Skip this one

--Treasure of the Black Pawkeet--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

Ugh. This is the same thing as Marrow...impossible to win. I suppose one of the cards does have the treasure, but is it really worth it? To pay all that NP and get nothing in return, and then having to wait another three hours? Answer: No. I played it once, and will never play it again, unless someone finds out where the treasure is

--Ultimate Bullseye--

Reviewed by: willofgaia

This is essentially a rehash of the older Ultimate Bullseye. Same style, same keys, same everything. If you were good at it, you'll be good at this. But be warned, if the fact that the current Better Than You only had ten people beat it by this Monday doesn't clue in that this is not the best game to play for Neopoints, I don't know what will
