Neopets shine

Stick to the age rating when purchasing-my 8 year old was intimidated by level 3 and it's intensity. Graphics are excellent-would recommend for older Neopet enthusiasts.

What GREAT GAME!

It has such good morals, and the graphics are amazing! I would highly suggest this for anyone who want there kids to play a quality game.

My wifes brother recommended this game for my daughter who is 5 and I to play together. I have to say that for a kid to be able to play and understand everything by themselves they would most likely have to be around 9 or 10 since their is a lot of reading and map following, but we were looking for a game to play together so this one is great. The graphics have a good clean look to them and the worlds are fun to explore around and see whats around ever corner. I would say its the first game of this type that I have played. Its like exploring the kind of world any child would want to live in with caves, mountians, forests, castles and sewers. We havent beaat it yet but the two of us have had great fun so far.

The Awesomest Faerie Tale

I bought the darkest faerie about two or three days after it was released and my mother and I are still playing it. The graphics are so cool. The controls on PS2 are easy to learn and get familiar with.

You start out with one character, Tormund, and later on in Act 2 you play Roberta, but the best part is when they get together in Act 3. There are so many items you can gain through treasures and quests.

I find the traveling from one place to another somewhat tedious, but I guess it's better than zapping from one place instantly. It gives you a more real time sort of feeling, having to roam a large mapped area, and trying to stay oriented with what direction you are headed can be challenging.

The petpets are useful when kept fed. I particularly liked the cute little Noil's. But I think the Turmac is the most useful, as it increases both health and magic, and boosts attack and defense. It is just difficult to keep it fed, as it likes to run around a lot.

The sword fighting in the game is not just hack and slash. There are different swings depending on the speed of button pressing, or rotating of the joystick. The magic wand is good for long range attacks. Magic is a key to defeating types of monsters, using motes that vary your attacks. One astounding game. Is good for ages 10 and up.

So far there is no player's guide for it (There is a map inside the game package), but there are helpful people on the message boards at [...] who can answer any questions you might have. I found that very useful to overcome puzzles that eventually stumped me. It's a fun game, and yes I'd give it an educational rating for its map reading and puzzle solving skills. It's about as durable as any CD is and should be taken care of. I won't give it a 5, but more of a 4.5, something rather close.

Great Game For Kids

My son saw this game advertised on Nickelodeon and we purchased it for his 11th birthday. He just finished the game yesterday and loved every minute of it! I would highly recommend it as a parent who is tired of buying expensive games just to have them played for a couple of hours and stuck back on the shelf. He couldn't wait to get to his "game time" every day to play this game. The graphics are wonderful, the morals are great for a game these days, and we all enjoyed watching him play and the little "movies" played in between quests. Definately not a waste of money!

The Best Game Ever!

Out of all the games ive ever played this one is the wrost!On the frist level you play as a lion with a sowrd and wack little knights around.What I was expecting a lord of the rings type game with more then jest this.I am not a neopets fan but I brought the game becuse it locked pretty fun but i jest wasted 40 bucks on a peice garbage.When you start out on the frist level also beware that you will probley be thare for about 60 minuits becuse it will freze and you talk to alot of pepole that dont shut up.I tried it 3 times beforit whould stop freezeing and get to the game play.I was expecting better from a e10+ game uselly these game are alot more intense then this and contain some langugage but this on should have ben rated e for all ages becuse once you fight a person it jest runs away from you and leves money behind.I went to level 2 and froze 2 times and then used a magic wand to knock dow objeicts from the ground no fighting at all and pretty much thare talking the whole time.Also the story isnt that good etheir its about a land called neopia a place were animals called neopets live that are ragalure pets in real life but have other names are being forced to move away to a land were no fun is.But two others were gone when this happend so they are away on the quest to save thare pepole.I never finished the game becuse i returned it becuse of the gameplay freezing and loading peroid was about 3 minuits every time.So i got my 40 bucks back and another game.Beware the game is not as good as it locks

heck yeah!

I've been playing Neopets: The Darkest Faerie and I love it! I'm twelve years old, and there's only so many games that my parents will let me play until I'm older - and this one is EASILY the funnest I've played all year! Usually, when my ten year old sister and her friends like a game, I won't even pay attention to it --- but Neopets is an easy acception to that rule. The characters are cool and there's tons of awesome levels to play! Even if you mess up on a level, you can accidentally discover cool hidden areas and happen upon different quests.
