7 Wonders

This is exactly the type of game I can play just about forever and not get bored with it. Frustrated, yes, but not bored. I've been able to complete the levels 3 times, but each time you complete all the levels and start over, the game gets progressively harder. Each of the 8 levels has 8 different sub-levels, or puzzles, progressing in difficulty. The trick is, with this game, that when you notice time is about to run out (the game will tell you to "hurry up"), you can press the start button which will pause your game and you can quit at that point. When you start play again, you'll be at the same sub-level. This way you don't lose a life; although invariably, you sometimes get caught up in the activity and don't realize the time is running out. You do get three lives, and lives are added at various points in the game, but the most I've ever had is 6, and managed to lose them all. It's a special skill to be that bad. I really do like this game though.

Hard to put down

This game will definatly help improve your eyesight! You have to look for identical runes ( colored shapes ) put in groups of three's. There are several levels to compleet before you can move on. It is highly adictive if you are a puzzle junkie. The only draw back to the game is, if you use up all your extra lives the game doesn't save where you left off. You must start all over again. This can become very frustrating. I've almost compleeted the game twice and then wound up blowing it at the end. Over all, it's a fun brain teasing game.

Easy Game for kids and adults all ages!

Great game for all ages! Easy to learn, great for first time players too! This is an easy yet challenging game when you get to the upper levels, but not so difficult that a young child couldn't be successful! It's also the type of game where you can quit and then pick it up later and be able to play without any trouble.

One of the best "Puzzle" games ever!!!

If you love "puzzle" games like Zuma, Luxor, Bejeweled, mah jong - you will love this game. I downloaded this game forever ago for free on my pc and played my free time in one sitting. VERY ADDICTIVE. You have to match tiles - 3 at a time - to clear them from the board breaking the blocks of the pyramid. Got it as the 2nd game for my DS and it is just as good if not better than the PC version.

What Fun!!!

This is such a fun game to play, once you start it is hard to put down. The music is entertaining and the different levels you can get to make this game so much fun. I highly recommend this game to any tile/puzzle lover!

This one is the best!

When I got this game I was looking for something to help me focus and remember. I got it. Like most people I can tell you it is a great game, and annoying at the same time! I have gotten to the last puzzle only to lose all my lives and get timed out. My housemates know when that happens by the cry of frustration that echoes. It is so addictive that I find myself just doing "one more" puzzle before I put it down. LOVE this game!

7 Wonders - Best DS game ever! (sorry Zelda)

This is the best 20 buck investment any DS fan can make! Seriously. This game is awesome! Kudos to Mumbo Jumbo! I've been a Zelda fan forever. Buying every new Nintendo system just to be able to play the new version of that seriously great game. Now here's the thing...I'm only on my third go-round of "building" the 7 Wonders and Atlantis and I thought to myself...I've been playing this game non-stop ever since I got it. Why is that? There is no strategy guide book I had to buy (I've got all of Zelda's). It is in it's simplicity of play that this game stands out. I don't want to give too much away because that is the fun of the game... The workers, the work you need to do to get the cornerstones, the animation. Did I mention the workers? Fun. The sound effects are fun. It's all fun. The music score unquestionably is the best I've heard for a video game ever. This is way more that 25 words...so I'm done. Check it out. 7 Wonders is the bomb. Thanks Mumbo Jumbo!

Excellent game

I gave it 5 stars because the cute graphic, the sound is clear with nice music. The game is fun: match 4, you'll have a bonus (the Jewelquest doesn't have this). I play it everyday.

Agreed -- a great game all the way around!

I can't agree more with the other reviewers who gave this game five stars. It's simple, it's entertaining, and it's unbelievably addictive! I've found myself sitting up at least more than an hour past bedtime, telling myself "Just one more puzzle!" or "I just want to build one more wonder!"
The graphics, considering it's such a tiny screen, are really neat. What really tickles me is the little builder guys. When you're doing well, they're all happy and yelling at each other to get working, etc. When you're not doing well, they grab signs with rocks painted on them and wave them around, demanding more rocks to build with! Too funny.
I like this game so much on my DS that I've tried trials of the PC version and have ordered it for my computer. I've also tried trials of 7 Wonders II, and that's also on order! I wonder if they will have 7 Wonders II out for the DS soon?
Anyway, I would recommend this game to anyone. I think I may wear out my DS's touch screen with this game!

This is the reason I have the DS Lite

My grandson was playing this game and I picked up his DS and could not quit playing. I became highly adictive to playing that I went and bought myself a Nintendo DS Lite. As you can see I am a grandmother and love playing some of the games. 7 Wonders is one of my favorite and I have completed all the levels and starting my 2nd round. I also bought Cake Mania 1 and 2 and completed them. I have completed Professor Layton & the Curious Village. I hope to find other games I like as much as these.
