Fun:
Can't understand the negative reviews on here. I really enjoyed this game, and can't recommend it enough. The graphics are great and the artistry is excellent. You control either a scorpion or spider (changes over at the start of each chapter) and you unlock moves as you progress. The story unfolds as you go along, and provides a backdrop to the exploration and fighting. The only negatives I have is sometimes the game loads at an inappropiate time. The only niggles I found, is sometimes the camera could throw you off sometimes - but there is a button to center camera. The other thing is that the game will pause for a few seconds to load. This most of the time happens when there is no action, so it is not a dealbreaker. Definitely think they should make a sequel.

Fun:
A unique game for the Wii (or any other console!) this is a story of murder betrayal and buried treasure, the story follows two guy's (voiced by billy bob thornton and dennis hopper) search thru a desert looking for the treasure and a related murder. but we don't see it thru their eyes but the eyes of some of the deserts local inhabitants namely a scorpion and a tarantula and what follows is another story layered to the first set in the underworld of the desert where all manner of beast and insect lay, a story of survival if you will.
taking consecutive turns of both scorpion and tarantula each has their own play style, the tank like scorpion who is slower and not as agile brawls his way thru the desert using his pincers and stinger to fight off other creatures he also has some disgustingly good finishing moves, then there's the tarantula she prefers to take the stealth root attacking from a distance but cant take the damage like the scorpion.
you will face all manner of creatures like the armored beetle, hornets, wasps, black widows, other tarantula and scorpions and lizards and a determined snake, all the way up to the most deadly... Humans.
controls are quite simple and easy to learn most are button presses but they throw in some gestured movement to add variety, the graphics are very good and make you feel nauseous thru out making the bugs look realistic, if anything it made me more interested in insects and the like.
so in closing its a great game and one of a kind and i highly recommend this to all Wii owners as i doubt you'll play anything like this ever again.

Fun:
Alow and behold, my favourite game on Wii. (along with Raving Rabbids) The ultimate fighting game with insects at the plenty! Here, you take controll of a tarantula and a scorpion and fight to survive in a dog-eat-dog world (or would that be bug-eat-bug?)
This game is Fantastic with a capital F, as you can see, with the best levels being seven, The forgotten, and nine, Displaced (definitely the best) where you can find yourself in an abandoned truck, landfill, sewer or petrol station in your hunt to kill anything that comes your way, going up the food chain as you go, spiders, scorpions, lizards, rattlesnakes, gila monsters, and the greatest of all. Man!
Here on corse, I palce one mina downfall that can be easierly resolved, and that is that the game will get boring if play it to often. Solution, don't play to often! This is one of the best games you ever play, as long as you can survive it...
Bring it on!
