Spot the Difference review

So, Spot the Difference. We all know the game. Two pictures and you have to spot the difference between them...who would have thought it?

Upon booting, you are greeted with some funky music and a box in which to input your name. Or a rude word. I went for a rude word!

Then you are presented with the options of either "Arcade" mode, or "Custom game" mode. After choosing arcade you get given a choice of difficulties, which unlock as you progress (you have to begin on "Rookie and work your way up, in other words). After this you get a lovely picture. Guess what you do? Spot the difference. Surprising isn't it? L1 scrolls the picture leftwards, R1 scrolls it rightwards. If you need a hint, what triangle and the game will help you out..Although apparently the game fails to see the difference between a "hint" and straight out telling you one of the anwswers. Hmm. Simply use either the analogue stick or the D-pad to move the cursor over the pic and press X when you have found a difference. There are a number of differences in each round which you have to find within the time limit - but if you get it wrong too many times then you will fail.

Is it any good? How hard can a game of spot the difference be? It was better than i thought it would be going in, being a spot the difference game. Some of the differences are really hard to spot, and i ended up using the hint option a fair number of times, actually. I'd recommend it to people who enjoy playing Spot the difference - i'd particularly recommend it to someone who wants something for their kids to keep them occupied, if they don't really like games etc. Overall though, it doesn't offer the same fun value as other Minis that are available.
