Game Review: Rubik’s Flip

Hi, readers!

This week, Chickadee reader Liam, 8, reviewed the game Rubik’s Flip for us. Check out what he thought of it below!

My name is Liam and here is my review of the game Rubik’s Flip. The goal of the game is to get three in a row of one of your colours before your opponent does. I liked the game very much. I played with my nana and then my dada and won both times. It comes with easy-to-understand instructions. The game has two flaps that protect it when you are not playing, so you can also take the game anywhere. Rubik’s Flip s a little bit challenging but it is very fun. I look forward to playing Rubik’s Flip with my friends at school!

Thanks for reviewing the game, Liam. Glad you enjoyed it.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam Video Game Review

Hi, readers!

What happens when flat Paper Mario jumps into the world of Mario & Luigi? Well, you get a brand-new Nintendo 3DS game called Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam! Nintendo of Canada recently had an event where kid testers could try out the game. Read on for Liam’s review!

Mario and Luigi Paper Jam 

Review By Liam Riley

I got to go to a Nintendo event where we played this game. We were the first kids in Canada to play it! The event was fun because we got to take pictures with Mario and Luigi, did crafts and much more.

My friend Andrew and I got to meet Mario!

The game starts in Princess Peach’s castle. One day, Luigi is in a dark room and frightened by a mouse. He falls and a book drops and it releases the paper dimension. All the paper dimension characters meet the real characters. Every character has a double. You are playing as Mario, Luigi and paper Mario as you walk around battling Bowser and other enemies, while also saving friendly characters from being kidnapped.

Every character has a double in this game. Here is regular Mario and paper Mario!

My favourite part was the paper craft battle. I really liked the storyline and characters, but think that they could cut down on the dialogue. It was very long to read. I do recommend this game to kids 6+ for the bros attack battles and storyline. I hope you like the game.

I would give the game an 8/10!

Thanks for reviewing the game, Liam! Glad you had fun.

Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is available January 22nd and rated E for Everyone.
