As a fan of the old point-and-click adventure games, Zack & Wiki had me pretty excited. The game certainly has charm, and even a decent little story, but the good qualities are held back mostly by janky motion controls. All of the unresponsive wiggling, turning, and shaking made certain points of the game more of a frustrating chore than an enjoyable experience. What a shame.
Still, I had enough fun with Zack & Wiki to recommend it. You'll want to throw the controller at your TV from time to time, but don't do it; you'll be missing out on all of the clever puzzles!
