The graphics vary. The style can switch from cartoony to oldschool NES to more modern things in a flash. In this kind of game it doesn't really matter, but everything fits in nicely and looks good.
The soundtrack is good and there are lots of sounds and music in the game. It's all good quality but you won't really be humming any of the tunes.
The gameplay. The game is basically a collection of 5 second minigames. When the minigame starts it gives you one/two words to explain it, for instance 'SAUTE!', in a minigame of flipping up and down a frying pan. If you fail, you lose one of four lives. Lose all your lives, you have to start the 'level' over again. The levels are presented by little characters, and have little animations at the start. There are many, many minigames, including: shaving, drinking a glass, using your trunk to pick up an apple, playing FREAKING STAR FOX, rolling samus into a crate, waving Wario's farts away, pushing over some guy, and many, many more. Before each minigame, there is a picture of your 'Form Baton' (wiimote) and how you should be holding it. This allows for some unique minigames. There is one level with the 'Balance Stone' (nunchuck) but it isn't really that good. Most minigames are presented humorously and not very serious. They are all intuitive and make good use of the Wii-mote, and most work well. There are a few that don't seem to work properly (SHRED! being the culprit for me) but that could just be me. There is also a multiplayer mode, where you use just one remote and share it among your friends. These games are unique and pretty cool, but they could have done more.
This is definitely a game to be played with or among friends, as you look pretty stupid dancing and hula hooping a donut. If you are more a single player person... well I finished the single player in about 3 hours. There is only a basic story too. To be honest I am kind of disappointed in it, so don't get it if you want to be able to play it by yourself.
The game mainly relies on its humour and intuitive controls to deliver a fun game. It is quite short but you can replay it over and over with your friends. It's easy to pick up, and you and your friends will have a blast playing it and laughing at the silly visuals on screen, and most of all at each other. It costs around £30-40.
