(More customer reviews)Safari Adventures is a kid's game. But even though I am a teen, I still enjoy it.
The graphics are very good. The game plays from overhead, and the terrain looks beautiful, although the animal models look a little choppy. I especially liked the water.
You start at the main menu, and from there you can either exit or start the game. If you start the game, you can either load a previously saved game or start a new one. Then you can choose whether you be Alex (a little boy) or Emma (a little girl). Personally, I like Alex better because he looks better (kind of cute and cool-looking), I like his personality better, and he sounds really good. Then you can go to the map to choose where you want to go. When you win an area, you'll unlock the next area.
The game itself is pretty good. It's easy to play but hard to master (some puzzles). The entire game is played with the mouse. You use it to to pick up and use objects, to move, and to talk to humans/animals. Yes, animals talk in this game. It's weird, but a while after you hear the ibex say, "Hello, Alex", you'll get used to it. Some of the animals are pretty funny. I liked the elephant and the shrews especially. What do you do in the game? Missions. You help animals. They vary from putting out fire that's scaring wolves to freeing birds from cages. Besides the two kids and all the animals, there are three other characters: the kindly ranger, the selfish Rashburn (a tourist), and the nasty Mank (a poacher). There are lots of puzzles, including combinations and moving rocks out of the way. You even get to ride on animals, but mostly you have to figure out situations. Some are incredibly easy, some are difficult, and some are almost impossible. One that I got stuck on was on the fifth level, when you are supposed to get Rashburn away from the gorillas. I wandered around, tried everything, and nothing worked. I almost gave up, until I did a little something that made the generator roll away and make Rashburn chase after it. Then I almost banged my head against the screen; it was one of the "Why didn't you think of that" things. Once you complete a mission, you can take a picture of the animal you did it for, which you can look at in your scrapbook. I was disappointed that Rashburn, my favorite villain, didn't appear a lot in the game.
The game is good, but it could be much better. Once you beat the game and looked at all of your scrapbooks a hundred times and looked at all the fact files and played both of the characters, there'll be nothing to do. I can think of lots of stuff to add that would really improve it. Two-player mode, more diverse puzzles, minigames (maybe), being able to take your own pictures, difficulty levels with more difficult puzzles, and maybe on the highest difficulty level your character can be in danger and can be hurt. But it's a lot of fun while it lasts.
The game was made to support WWF, a company that I fully support. It is very educational, and also every single copy of this game you buy donates between $0.50 and $1.00, which really adds up. Overall, I reccomend you buy this game if you can find it cheap.
