The latest Yuji Naka's creation is a cute action-platform that, for a very reasonably price, delivers a charming (but a little bit short) experience.
Ivy the Kiwi? is a real winner in the action-puzzle genre, striking the right tone of simplicity while keeping the game's difficulty moving along at a nice pace.
I prefer the DS version because I like playing a few levels at a time when I'm out and about. But if you prefer the appeal of a bigger screen, and more multiplayer options, the Wii version is just as good.
It's not heavy on strife, narrative, or story, but there are a considerable number of medals, feathers, and extra levels to collect even after you finish the game. So long as you don't mind guiding a hapless bird to the exit a couple hundred times, Ivy the Kiwi? is a gorgeous tale with a whole lotta heart.
Ivy is an enjoyable little game, if one that's a bit too short. An extra mode and collecting each of the ten feathers from the game's numerous stages adds replay value, though the stages themselves can be short.
An odd little puzzle platformer that can be fun for short periods, but doesn't offer anything that hasn't been done better before. There are too few surprises along the way, and so you'll quickly feel that you've seen all the game has to offer.
