The Munchables

The Munchables is a strange game for the Nintendo Wii released in 2009.  The story is that on the planet Star Ving there is are legendary orbs that have been stolen by space pirates, who look like veggies.  It is the Munchables job to get the orbs back by eating all the space pirate veggies.  

There are two playable characters Munchy, the girl, and Chomper, the boy.  They both have the same abilities so it doesn’t matter which you pick.  Your job is to navigate through the 8 worlds each consisting of 2 normal stages and then a boss stage.  In each world there are a ton of veggies to eat up and level up your character.  The player must eat the lower level veggies before tackling the higher level veggies or the risk of getting hit is much higher.  There is a chance the player can attack the higher level veggie and break it into smaller level veggies, but you have to be quick with the attacks.  If you get hit you shrink and you have to shake the Wii remote to grow back to normal size.

Overall this is a very simple game and most gamers will find it to be fun but too easy, however it is known to be great for kids. Also, it was released as a budget title so if you do find a copy it should be really inexpensive.
