Product Description
Thrillville: Off the Rails amps up the family-friendly mix of gameplay with some of the most outlandish roller-coaster concepts ever imagined, as well as new ways to talk to park guests and a new array of carnival games. 20 death-defying rides so outrageous inspire the same word from every park visitor who sees them: "WHOA!" Build incredible "WHOA Coasters" to leap from one track to another, launch through the air like cannonballs, blast through a burning ring 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? Attach animatronics, flowers and flaming hoops to all of your coasters and rides Smarter guests, better dialogue and more focused two-way conversation make Thrillville's socialization aspects even more amusing than before Conversation more directly impacts the story than in the original Thrillville Play 34 minigames - 14 new, 20 returning from the original Thrillville with new levels such as Robo K.O., Sparkle Quest, Bandito Chinchilla and Tank Frenzy

 Fun September 3, 2008
Kids love this game but it is so easy for it to get lost/misplaced because of its small size.

More fun that I thought it would be. Let me start by saying I'm an adult and I've had a lot of fun with this game so far. I spent nearly my entire Sunday playing it for hours. The biggest downfall is that sometimes when you're tracing the roller coaster portions, the DS does not recognize them, specifically the loops. The other issue is that I wish you could just click somewhere to find a certain thing and not have to search the map; i.e. a certain person (mechanic), game or ride. Other then that, its very addictive and fun to see it all come together. I keep visualizing the missions and amusement park plots in my head long after playing.

My seven year old son has enjoyed this the most out of the set of games we purchased with our nintendo ds lite two weeks ago. The price of this game was US $24. He has played for several hours in total with increasing interest, without becoming obsessive (he plays around 30 minutes each time). I've also tried it for an hour.
Its family friendly, tbat is, non-violent. It provides a sense of progress and achievement in building the fun park and accumulating the score. Its not frustrating or annoying at any point. There is no manual dexterity required beyond drawing shapes, and no repetitive or speed dependent actions required. There is no time pressure or negative warnings that appear in this game.
Its important to remember to save your progress, since at no stage is there any automated save function. You would lose entirely everything if you didn't save. Of course it was me who did this, not the seven year old!
Our three year old son also enjoys this, and has fun playing the mini-games, particularly the ice-hockey and basketball. Its nice for him to play, but we don't encourage him to do so.

It was not as good of a game that it sounded like. It does not take very long to beat the game, but you still have the minigames to play after.
