Wheel! Of! Popeye!

The title of my review pretty much says it all. Popeye no Eigo Asobi is not much. It's Hangman with characters from the Popeye TV show. The game feels like a cheap Hangman knock off / money grab for both the Nintendo and Popeye franchises with repetitive gameplay that is probably worth an hour of a person's time, and that's probably the maximum time amount. I suppose it may be fun enough for kids who just want to learn, but otherwise it won't please many people. Its simple and often disappointing puzzles will not compare to the letter guessing gameplay that the more well known letter games Hangman and Wheel of Fortune can provide.
