  • Summary: Off the Rails lives up to its name with 20 death-defying rides so outrageous, they inspire the same word from every park visitor who sees them: "WHOA!" Players build these incredible "WHOA Coasters" to leap from one track to another, launch through the air like cannonballs, blast through a burning rings of fire and more. A new lighthearted story ties together more than 100 missions, complete with 34 playable multiplayer theme-park games and social interaction with park guests that's better than ever. The in-depth conversations both advance the plot and suggest better ways to manage the park. But is every guest to be trusted? [LucasArts] Expand

  1. Longevity is questionable and some will find it too bitty, but there are few titles on Wii so full of childish glee. If this is Frontier off the rails, we can't wait to see them on track. [Christmas 2007, p.54]
  2. It might be too complicated for a younger audience to enjoy on their own. [Christmas 2007, p.86]
  3. It's not complex, it's not challenging, but it's not trying to be. It's an enjoyable family game which also has appeal for retro gaming fans and drunk people. If that sounds like you, put Off the Rails on your list.
  4. A very average game with limited appeal.

  1. This game is excellent. I only suggest you buy the game on a different system because of the complication of tilting the Wii Remote to do practically everything in the game. Collapse
  2. The game is not that bad! It's really fun! I thing I don't really like in this game is the camera. Graphics are good for a wii game but the gameplay is extremely fun. The designs are great as well. This game is really fun because you get to build and design rollercoasters and play alot of minigames as well. This game has deserve a must buy for any wii gamer! Gameplay: 9.1
    Sound: 8.0
    Design: 8.5
    Graphics: 7.5
    Camera: 6.5

    The game is pretty hard, yet very fun becauce you can make rollercoasters, you can design your own characters, and play mini-games. (by my daugher, 8 years) Expand
