Napoleon Dynamite: The Game

7 Studios really nailed the license on this game. Although the presentation is as times a bit bland, the minigames are generally well done and capture the spirit of the film perfectly. This isn’t the best minigame collection on the DS, but it’s better than most. Diehard fans of the film will probably enjoy this collection, and gamers looking for some enjoyable, bite-sized gaming might be surprised by what they find here.

It's unlikely that many were begging for a Napoleon Dynamite-themed minigame collection, and those few who were will be disappointed by this shabby effort.

"Napoleon Dynamite the Game is ultimately Studio 7’s literal interpretation of the main character’s wildly farfetched storytelling. Suspending your disbelief in a theatre is one thing, but engaging in a socially inept character’s seemingly redundant flights of fancy via overtly over-exaggerated mini games is all kinds of messy. If a company tried to rework several arcade standbys (in terms of general gameplay), and then stuck a random film license on their game, the bastard child would look an awful lot like Napoleon Dynamite the Game."
