Lost in Blue: Shipwrecked

Lost in blue is one of those interesting titles that Nintendo strives to make. Although a lot of Nintendo's non mascot games (ex. Mario, Donkey Kong, ect.) aren't worth hardcore gamer's time lost in blue has an unique quality that makes you come back for more. The game is survival based  with two goals, One stay fed, hydrated and rested, two get off the island. As you progress through the game your character learns how to build tools like bows for hunting, spears for fishing, and a lot more. Doing tasks like fishing and cooking will start mini games where you have to time your wiimote swings to perform certain tasks which adds a unique taste to game play. The story line is weak but what it lacks it makes up for in game play. Along with the main  character there's also a side character which you must keep alive in order to avoid a game over. Although you don't need to bring her where ever you go you still have to make sure she stays healthy. Wandering away to far with out leaving her with food or water can be deadly. Another fun factor is planning ahead making sure if your going to be away from camp that you bring enough food and water with you to stay alive. So far this is one of the few titles for the wii that was worth my time apart from other titles like Metriod and Mario. Over all the game brings quite a bit to the gaming table and holds its own against the bigger titles. Its definitely worth looking into.
