Keep up-to-date with all the latest video game releases! Kidzworld has all the latest games to keep watch for. This week, we preview LEGO Harry Potter, The Last Airbender, and Ancients of Ooga!
LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4
The boy wizard is back on your game console, this time in brick form! LEGO Harry Potter brings the smooth puzzle platformer gameplay and funny cutscenes from LEGO Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Batman to the world of Hogwarts, covering the first four books/movies on a single game disc. You can go from learning your first spells to competing in the climactic Triwizard Tournament in the game, and it's even more fun when you bring a friend along for the ride. Just remember everything from quidditch to charms class is portrayed in LEGO bricks, giving you the fun customization you can play with in the actual toys.
The Last Airbender
Based on the upcoming summer blockbuster based on the Avatar: The Last Airbender animated series, this game lets you control both Aang, the Avatar himself, and Prince Zuko, a Firebender with real power. On your own or with a friend in co-op, you use the Wiimote and nunchuck to bend the elements through tons of epic battles. You can also control Prince Zuko's shadowy alter-ego, the Blue Spirit, using ninja-like abilities like stealth maneuvers and smoke bombs to battle the enemy. The game even lets you use telekinesis powers to use physics against your enemies.
Ancients of Ooga
The Oogani tribe of cavemen have been tricked into slavery by some evil creatures, and you must guide them to freedom through puzzle platformer gameplay. You play as a spirit that inhabits the cavemen, controlling one at a time so they can cooperate and use the right items to free themselves. What's best about the game is its, um, interesting "eat/carry/puke" inventory system. Uh... Yeah. Anyway, take control of all seven tribes and use their ancient powers in the name of freedom!
