2 out of 5 stars Wasn't what I expected   July 28, 2008
I bought this game because I thought it would be fun to have board games on the Wii -- something I've wished that gaming companies would do for a long time. (I love PC games like Mah-Jong, etc. and really wanted that in the Wii format.)


I found this to be slow and, even on a 41-inch HDTV display, it's hard to see.


Not the first game I would recommend.



1 out of 5 stars It was ok.   July 17, 2008
Guess I expected more being a Wii game. But it is a board game. Played some but not enough excitement in it.


3 out of 5 stars Wii Board Games   April 29, 2008
Some of the tutorials do not explain fully the game or how to use the remote for all the things you should be able to do such as rolling the dice; I read the booklet that came with it and read the tutorial on the actual game and it did not tell you how to roll them but I finally had my son in law come over and we finally figured it out but once you get it all figured out, it has a lot of board games to choose from and most are enjoyable.


3 out of 5 stars Could have been so much better   April 21, 2008
This game could have been prettty good minus a few things. If you don't know how to play games like Backgammon, this game will allow you to play it, but you may not end up with a full understanding of HOW to play.

My second complaint would be that you can't create a profile that tracks your wins/losses and even things as simple as your name. You must type in your name EVERY time you play a different game for it to show up on the high scores list.

And finally, the soundtrack is annoying. Some womans voice keeps popping up saying something inaudible and it's really really annoying.

I can't express enough how disappointed I was. I had read the reviews and thought it sounded like fun. My mistake was not finding out which "classic board games" were included. Had I known, I never would've considered buying it. I assumed they would truly be classics, board games that families actually play. The graphics are terribly generic. I still like Wii Sports, Cross Bow Shooting & Brain Academy the best. This Ultimate Board Game doesn't remotely measure up. My younger kids liked the checkers, but it's difficult to get a hold of the game pieces. They also liked Battle Ship, although it lacks any challenge that the actual board game has. It's just not worth your time or money.
