Wizard101 Review: Cross Generational Magic

"Let me start right off the bat with this: Wizard101 is a family-friendly, kid-centered MMO. This re-review of W101 is going to focus on those two facts and the niche into which the game fits so perfectly. While there is no question that W101 has a lot to give to adult players, even hardcore MMO players, the fact remains that gameplay is designed to be attractive to and easy to learn for all ages from kindergarteners to octogenarians."

MMObility: Ten terrific titles for this nifty new netbook

"Who could go wrong with a fully downloadable, fully voice-acted MMO that will run on a toaster? The very first time I visited the studios of KingsIsle, the maker of Wizard101, I brought my old netbook with me. I was having issues fitting it to the 600-pixel-tall screen, but one of the coders came in and adjusted a config file and got me in the game. The game is not just for kids. Not at all."

About.com Wizard101 Game Review

It's refreshing to see a game that concentrates on doing a few things well, rather than trying to be everything to everyone. Wizard101 is not only a game your entire family might enjoy, it's a title that a lot of games designed for adults could learn something from.

WarCry Network Wizard101 Game Review

Based on my favored "scoring system", Wizard101 earns a "Get it Now" award with the caveat that you might find yourself playing this over other more "mature" titles. But There's no reason, as I always say, to take MY word for it. Wizard101 is free to play so wake up your inner child and check it out.

Kill Ten Rats Wizard101 Game Review

What do you get when you mix ToonTown Online, Pokemon, Harry Potter, and a Trading Card Game? Wizard101. Note: This game is targeted mainly at the pre-teen age group, but I strongly suspect there will be plenty of adults playing.
