42 All-Time Classics (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Board- Card and Casino
from: Nintendo

September 29, 2006
I just got this game today and am hooked already. As an older Nintendo fan (40 something), I don't play all the shoot 'em up or beat the clock type games. I like games that I can play at my leisure and think about. This is definitely the one to have. Got it hooked up to my wireless internet easily and was playing backgammon with someone in no time. It's not one of those games where once you play to the end, you're done. Lots of variety and I'm sure it will keep me entertained for hours, days, even months to come.

Mahjongg (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Board- Card and Casino
from: Deep Silver

September 19, 2008
I love Mahjongg so this was perfect for me when I got a new DS Lite. You can play it for ages and just not realise the time. I am in my 30's and it has to be taken away from me in the end LOL.
Not only are there games against the clock, you can also play games at your own speed with no pressure.
There is also a quest where you follow a story and play along the way - although some of this is restricted with time which is not so good if you are a beginner.
Just dont play it on the bus going home - u might miss your stop.

Solitaire: Ultimate Collection (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Board- Card and Casino
from: Deep Silver

April 11, 2008
This is a pretty good game, with a huge selection of different varieties of patience, all customisable according to preference, e.g. number of cards turned over at once, number of times allowed to go through pack.

One small flaw, however, is that it doesn't allow different user profiles to be set up, meaning that the stats for games played are based on all games played, by anybody. Also, the cards are, by necessity, pretty small on the screen, so if you need reading glasses, you'll have to wear them for this.

Very intuitive to play - an older relative with no video-game experience was able to pick it up and play it with no instruction. Overall, I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys either real-life or computer ... Read More:

Top Trumps: Dr Who (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Board- Card and Casino
from: Eidos

May 16, 2008
This game is very boring for 6-9 years. I'm a big fan of doctor who,
but I'm disappointed. If you've got top trumps you can get bored with it
after 2 days.I finished all the levels after 3 days. When this game came out, I really wanted it, but now I wish i'd never bought it! Theres no
use unlocking the minigames, because you will have already done them on the bonus rounds after each level!

Chessmaster 11 (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Board- Card and Casino
from: Ubisoft

November 02, 2007
The computer software is great but was very disappointed by the DS version. The main concern is that the opponent level is quite poor. It will be good for kids (until a certain point) and people who wants to learn the game.
It would be nice to have a more advanced version.

Yu -Gi -Oh! World Championship 2008 (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Board- Card and Casino
from: Konami

March 28, 2008
this game is pretty good and is a great improvement from the old 2007 version.I have to say if you've never played or can't play DON'T BUY THIS GAME!This game has great new options including duel world and the new unction of tag duel. The deck you start with is apse lute crud and takes ages to improve but if you work hard you can start to really get into the game. duel world is good for keeping you occupied on this game. in this function you duel different spirits and have the chance to play with structure decks and to earn new cards. world champion ships is great but only works if you have wi-fi. this gives you the chance to verse other duelists from other countries
and is good because it helps you increase your skill and awareness of different tactics. ... Read More:

Hasbro Compilation: Monopoly/Boggle/Yahtzee/Battleships (Nintendo DS)

Childrens Toy Shop > Video Games > Board- Card and Casino
from: Atari

June 16, 2006
Was relatively disappointed in this as the gameplay could be a lot better.

Monopoly - I found Monopoly quite confusing in terms of buying and selling properties - the instructions aren't clear and I ended up swapping properties I didn't want to swap in error.

Boggle - this was why I bought this game - loved Boggle as a kid. It's quite good but it has a really annoying menu where it's difficult to select the game you want to play!

Yahtzee - this is great - faithful to the original game with a choice of backgrounds

Battleships - probably the best configured game of the 4 - just a pity it's the most boring game!

Overall it's not bad - if you like the 'real-life' versions then you'll like this. I just ... Read More:
