7 Wonders of the Ancient World (DS)

This review is for the game, 7 Wonders of the Ancient World, a game for the Nintendo DS developed by Hot Lava Games and published by MumboJumbo Software. The game is essentially a puzzle game where you have to match up similar objects to progress through the game. The game is based on Bejeweled, a popular game where you have to match up three or more runes to be able to progress through the game. The title of the game is based on the seven different levels you work through, ie, the great pyramids, Temple of Artemis, Statue of Zeus, Mausolus Mausoleum, the Lighthouse of Alexandra, the Colossus of Rhodes, and the hanging gardens of Babylon. Really the ...  Read the complete review

Well I don't know whether to slate this game or sing it's praises! I love it and hate it equally! It's a match 3 game moving through various levels with sub levels within. Building the 7 wonders of the ancient world as you go. Believe me, when you get to the end you will be able to name them all as you have to start at the beginning again if you lose all your lives, I certainly couldn't before playing the game apart from the Pyramids at Gisa and Hanging Gardens of Babylon lol. It's very addictive and the early stages are relatively easy to complete which is ok to get you into it. They are shortish, ideal for picking up and playing if you've ...  Read the complete review

I recently got a 50-in-1 games cartridge for my DS after my interest for it waned, and it certainly worked as I've been playing loads since it arrived! One of the games on the cartridge is 7 Wonders of the Ancient World. I recognised the title from playing online demos (games and Ciao pass my work days quite nicely, thankyou very much!) so I knew what the game involved. I wasn't expecting anything too exciting, more like a "filler" to bump up to the 50 total of games. I was pretty much on the money. 7 Wonders is a game much like Bejeweled where you swap icons around to make rows of three. The difference here is that the background for ...  Read the complete review

Another puzzle game like many others is what i thought when i bought this game although i knew i would still enjoy it when ever i decide to play my ds for ten minutes. Matching up three gems to eliminate them from the board gains brick you need to help build the seven wonders of the world. With several difficulty settings i chose the hardest one being a slight pro at puzzle games, it does get more difficult as you progress but with puzzle games if you fail, you pick it up later to finish the level off another time. This game is great for a quick 10 minutes but you will find yourself getting addicted and before you know it an hour has passed and you can't ...  Read the complete review

I have spent many hours playing this game... - it is not really anything special, but i find it quite addictive! - bit sad really, all you do is match up 3 shapes/colours the same in a vertical or horizontal line... thre are blocks that fall down and you gradually build up statues/ buildings to complete a game. If you like silly brainless games like this then definately get it. Theres not really much else to say - my husband finds it irritating - he is not into this type of game. For the price you pay it is fine. There are different game options if you do not want to do a drawn out multi-level game then select one of the other options. The game remembers which section of ...  Read the complete review
