This is such a fun game. I don't usually play the Wii, but this got me playing days and days in a row! :) Great family fun--all my elementary school kids were totally into it!

My Girlfriend and I bought this game and have a blast with it, although she usually kicks my butt thoroughly.lol The game does tend to land you on Bankrupt an aweful lot however the gameplay and puzzles are really cool. Great game all around.

What a fun group game! Almost like being at the real show, the unfortunate part is that you can't actually use the prizes you win. Lots of fun for the whole family!

My family enjoyed playing the game, however the kids who range in age from 13 to 18 weren't too excited about it. I guess it wasn't filled with enough action for them?? However, I enjoyed it and had a great time losing to my no so into it kids. If they were to admit it I think they did like the game but again would recommend from the older crowd.

Still new to the Wii scene, but after playing WOF a few times we realized that it takes too much effort to play. It would better if it recognized speech, which after reading one of the reviews appears to not work well. We did not like having to click each letter to spell out each answer; it got tired really fast and boring after a couple of games with two people.

I like to get WII games for all 3 generations to enjoy and this game certainly fit that idea.

This game really is fun. It's easy to control, lots of puzzles and many different wheel prizes each game. Its super easy to play with 1 player, which is nice. I haven't purchased it yet, but I think this game would be great with the Wii Speak. A few times I had the phrase, but mispelled a letter and lost it :( If using Wii Speak, you don't have to spell each word out. But still lots of fun!

Great game @ great price! I caught this game online at a fraction of the price everywhere else. It was shipped to me for free and I received it within 3 days.

This purchase was a good buy, but the service was very very slow compared to most online transactions I make. Slow delivery.

Overall, an OK game. The puzzles can be challenging and you can choose your level of difficulty. However, the breaks in between rounds to say they are going to commercial waste time and do not add to the game. It can also be tricky to point at the correct letters with the controller at first. Overall, I am satisfied with it and have played it several times.

We have played WOF almost everyday since we purchased it. It is a very enjoyable game. The sound and graphics are very well done. We love the fact that you actually spin the wheel. The puzzles are a good combination of easy and hard. As for the controls it is easy enough using the wii remote but when choosing letters you do much better if you use the arrow keys instead of trying to point to the letters. We purchased the wii speak microphone to use with this but it just did not work well so we are returning it , so if you are thinking of that, it really is a waste of money. Overall the game is very well done and we enjoy it very much.

This game is exactly like the tv show. It has the same wheel features and has 3 levels of puzzles ranging from beginner to expert. You can also make the players do different gestures while playing. If you like the show you will like the game.

If you're into Wheel Of Fortune, then this game is for you. I've enjoyed playing it with the family. It does have Pat and Vanna in the game and there are many puzzles. My only concerns with this game is that I have seen a couple of puzzles repeated. It would be nice if the Wii had a keypad or keyboard to type the letters instead of using the Wii d-pad. Thankfully though, if you choose to solve the puzzle, it gives you plenty of time to type it in. This game doesn't have much of a story. You just unlock a few clothing items and maybe a stage or two. There isn't much to making the game, so they could've included more levels or closet items at least. This game is makes a good time killer and if you can get it at a cheap price, then why not buy it?

Being a game show lover, I was hoping to be able to play as if I was actually on the show...and my hopes came true! Very easy to play with different options and mini-games to play to make it unique. My only negative comment is you can't play the mini-games in one player mode. Glad I bought the game - have played it for hours!

My teenage children and I love this game but even the easy level is challenging. Young children would probably get frustrated trying to play this game.

Wow, this game is exactly like the televsion version. If you enjoy it then you will absolutely love this Wii game. My wife was a bit skeptical at first but now she loves it. We had another couple over and played this. They didn't want to put it away. BUY IT NOW! Yes, it does seem that Bankrupt or Lose A Turn comes up often. However, watch the television show and it mirrors their results too. LOVE IT!
