I love this game, it has been one of my favorites and I can even play it and I am not good with video games.
The only down side is it gets dark and my eye sight can't see in the dark, we lighted screen and it was better.
It is a great family game that our whole family really enjoyed! We are so glad we got it.

A few glitches but fun nonetheless

I am in my mid twenties and endure a bit of teasing from friends about owning this game. Each time I get teased, I turn the game on and my friends change their minds and ask if they can try it.

The game has a few glitches here and there, I played through once to find them all, and now I can avoid them easily. I would recommend saving frequently.

I can see how this game might be a little scary or intimidating for younger children, and I would recommend parents play through once before letting their children play, or at least supervise the first play-through.

I have been a big fan of Zelda for a long time now, and I constantly wish it were available on the PS2. This game comes pretty close to it though.

And keep in mind folks, this game is based on a CHILDREN'S WEBSITE. If you are disappointed in it for not being adult enough for you then you are expecting something that Neopets has never been.

Thumbs up from me!

cute but disappointing

Having been an adult Neopets addict since the web site's early beginnings I really expected more from this game. From a RPG veteran's standpoint the graphics are very primitive, but that's because it was created for the PS One and had a late release.

You really need to download a free guide online to navigate the game because there are sidequests, hidden secrets and many things that will stump you along the way.

Things in this game can be annoying depending on your patience level. If you aren't a jumping game fan it can get frustrating. And without listing any spoilers I will say there are aspects of this game that will drive you crazy until you figure them out. If you are a Neopets fan you know that's the norm but some kids new to to the genre might not have the patience for this game. It sure tested mine.

The boss fights are fairly easy until chapter three (for me it was forget getting past the Hissi without a cheat.) It's really more about strategy and which character you use.

Overall it was a good attempt at a first game for Neopets and it fit in with their online storylines but I prefer their website. It's a good game with a lot of play hours if you are still enjoying your Playstation 2 and want to add to your collection.

Great Game!

Just got this game a few days ago. It was an early valentines day present for my daughter and we love it!! she loves action/adventure, RPG games and its hard to find one to really hold her attention but this game does!! We cant really say anything bad about the game. The only thing that she wishes is they would come out with a game that was a little more like the online neopets, with more mini games and such and to actually adopt a pet that you want and to take care of it.

I have found the game to be very entertaining and just my speed. I am looking forward to finishing it. It was recommended to me by my sister and I have found her opinion to be correct. I would love to find more games like this one.

The whole house enjoys this one!

We all enjoy this game. My kids are 8 and 10 and serious Neopet fans. Even if you are not, the game is interesting, fun to play and requires some problem solving and planning to get through the levels. Sometimes we all get into it to figure it out!

GREAT

I am a huge neopets fan, although i have only been playing neopets online for about one year. I have heard about this game before i got it, because i just got a ps2 for christmas 5 days ago. So, i havent been playing for long, but this game is GREAT! I am a person who likes long adventure sagas with an unlikely hero in them, so if you are like me GET THIS GAME! It is only a 1 player game, but it still very fun! Heres a tip if you buy this game: sometimes the instructions don't tell you what to do, and you feel like quiting. But, just try everwhere for an answer,(look everywhere in what ever town you're in, and go in all buildings,) and i promise you'll get it. This game would be kinda hard for kids under 8, because fighting is hard to control.

HUGE HINT: Whenever you see patches of plants like grass, or small bunches of leaves, hit them with your sword and you get neopoints, or an item like strong health items, or sometimes Neggs! If you do this the game gets A LOT easier and way more fun! Also, if you kill the grass on tors farm (which gives you money) so you have 500 neopoints, you can buy a metal sword once in Meridell which gives you a HUGE advantage in shadowglen woods, and you won't survive in Illusens Glade without one!

Hope this helped!

Now I myself am a neopets fan and was really excited when this game was released. I found out about it in a Disney Adventures magazine. I was imiadietly saving up for this.

Now the game has it's ups and downs though, but I am sure that if you're a neopets fan you will love this game. Now here are the up's.

1) All of the neopets characters from the website come alive in this 3-D adventure.

2) Challenging puzzles, magic, sword fights.

3) Tons of action!

And now, to my dismay, the downs.

1) Lack of aim when using the wand. Let's just face it. Even though it hones in on the enemy it doesn't always hit its mark.

2) Way to many glitches. Once when I was looking for an item in an abbandoned mine shaft using Tormund, the character that uses the sword, I was not watching where I was going and walked into a wall. Literally. It took me a while to get out of there but after I got out I was treated to a 1st person view. What's wrong with this you might ask. Well 1st person + sword = massive problems attacking.

3) This may only appeal to parents who are planning on buying this game for their 7 year old son/daughter that's into neopets. Some of the locations send chills down your spine. Especially the graveyards. They are especially scary when an enemy pops out from around the corner unexpectadly.

Well it is a pretty good game if you're a fan of neopets or zelda.

Great Game

I'm not really a fan of neopets itself, but my sisters had this game and it was the only one I hadn't played.
I tried it and ended up playing it for 8 hours straight.

The graphics are more awesome than I expected and the gameplay was more simple than the instruction booklet made it seem. The instruction booklet looked a little daunting at first because it seemed so thick compared to most games. I skimmed through it so that I would know where things were if I needed help with those particular areas, and jumped right into the game without actually reading it. The game is pretty self-explanatory in most parts, though the map could be labelled better in some parts of the game (like inside the castle)
I especially liked the small 'quests' within the game which needed to be completed to advance. I also love the battles in Meridell.

If you have played and liked Neoquest and Neoquest II on Neo's site... you are going to love this game :)

The best game ever
