Product Description: Mercury Meltdown Revolution lets you guide a mercury "blob" trough dangerous obstacle courses with your Wii Remote.

Use your Wiimote to explore 150 levels and hidden labs, as you get used to the state of the art blob physics.
Not for the color blind I love mind puzzler type games and this was recomended to me.
I got through the tutorial fine and it was fun. But once I started playing the game I started having trouble. You have to get the blob certain colors and I am color blind and it was too difficult.
If you are color blind or have trouble matching colors this game isn't for you. However, if you don't have that problem, this game should be a blast.
pretty fun, worth $20 i've played this game for a couple hours now and it is pretty fun. reminds me of the old "marble madness" game, but with an updated feel and technology. it gets pretty difficult, so it isn't a super easy game that you'll blow thru in minutes. it's a good level of challenge.
Mercury Meltdown is so good! Just like all the reviewers have already shared -- this is an excellent game -- challenging (but doable with practice), multiple levels, bright colors, different views of the mazes, sound/music is cool (not irritating). This game is for the little kids right on up to the grandparents! GREAT FAMILY FUN or INDIVIDUAL PLAY (get some practice in before playing with the family so you have the advantage!). I am sure this game will continue to be used often through the years.
WELL WORTH THE MONEY -- way better than many games that cost 2x or 3x the price!
Did I mention the useful tutorial? Also, handheld wii control responds swell -- no problems -- no delays -- hangups, etc.
You won't believe what they have done with a blob of mercury! (it's alive!)
Do any of you remember the wooden labryinth game with the knobs on two sides -- you maneuvered the little silver ball through the maze and tried to avoid dropping through the holes? Think of that -- HIGH TECH!
A fun puzzle game I came in knowing almost nothing about this game and thinking its a good price and i need another Wii game that takes advantage of the Wii mote and my sisters can play I'll try this one out.
I was pleasantly surprised.
This is one of those games in which you sit down thinking, "I'm going to play for fifteen minutes", and then two hours later you are still playing and thinking i just need to beat one more level it will only take thirty seconds more. It reminds me of some of the old school puzzles games that have a simple concept but are lots of fun (IE Tetris, Dr. Mario Chu Chu Rocket). It is an easy to learn, hard to master kind of game with great replay value the only down side is that none of the party games are as good as the main game.
I definitely recommend this game for novice and masters alike.
Mercury Meltdown Revolution I bought this for my 9 year-old grandson because it was listed in the brain (educational) group. He couldn't believe it was a learning game when I told him. It's so much fun, he said. He likes games that take strategy and thought. Trying to beat the mercury is great.
My daughter told me that it also become the favorite game of his 12 year-old sister and her friends.
