Review PictureBook Games: Pop-Up Pursuit (WiiWare)
Feeling board? You will be!
If there's one thing WiiWare spotlights so well, it's the beauty of simplicity. Many of its best releases (World of Goo, Toki Tori, Art Style: Orbient) are deceptively deep showcases for simple - yet addictive - concepts.

WiiWare plays catchup, DSiWare gets more miniature retail titles
Things are a bit disappointing on the download front for Europe this week - only the Virtual Console release can really be recommended. What's most interesting about this update is that we've finally gotten a WiiWare game North America has had for over a year - if only it was any good!...

About The Game
Enter the world of PictureBook Games: Pop-Up Pursuit and enjoy a family board game set in a pop-up picture book. Instead of simply rolling dice to move along the map, you’ll use cards (which can help or hinder progress) and coins (useful for buying more cards, but don’t forget about your Coin Bonus at the end of the game).
Spaces on the map play an important role in the game’s outcome, and your computer-controlled opponents exhibit different personalities and behavior.
Occasionally, the mysterious Book of Magick will be opened, causing an event that may change according to how you play. This mixture of exciting game play and charming, artistic atmosphere give Pop-Up Pursuit high replay value and unique depth—even if its characters are flat.

i wann it
Looking forward to some reviews. The video looks nice.
It's about time!
I've played it anyway. It's pretty damn awesome.
I think this looks pretty good. However, from the video I watched I didn't see any mini games. Are there mini games, like in Mario Party or not?
no mini games but the game shure is fun....
