LOL (Nintendo DS)

A unique, free-form gaming experience, LOL’s motto says it best: “If the game is boring, then you are boring.” LOL is played by one of the players making a challenge in writing to the others. The crazier the challenge, the more fun everyone will have. The person who delivered the challenge chooses an appropriate time limit, and everyone has to answer the challenge on their touch screen however they see fit – with words, pictures, or whatever comes to mind. The host reveals the answers, and everyone votes on a winner who will then decide on the challenge for the next round. Always different and a blast to play every time, LOL will, as its name implies, make everyone laugh out loud. [Agetec]

Critic Reviews

80 GamePro
If you find yourself the baffled over ways to entertain your guests at a gathering, it might be money well spent.
75 IGN
LOL doesn't do anything revolutionary for the DS or for party games in general, but it's a lot of fun and easy to use. If you and your friends crack each other up, you'll do the same with LOL.
70 My Gamer
You want to take this game seriously, you can do that. You want to goof around and draw naked stick figures, you can do that.
50 Console Gameworld
While LOL is a good idea and genuinely is a lot of fun, it lacks many necessary features and options to make it recommendable over just using Pictochat.
25 ZTGameDomain
But I just can't give this game a legitimate score because this program essentially already exists with more font and typing options, wider use and less annoying mechanics. FOR FREE!
