Product Description
Do you like playing with mini-helicopters but hate when you accidentally break one? Now you can have a virtual one. Minicopter: Adventure Flight is a great game if you are a budding RC modeler or you just enjoy playing with RC toys. You can customize your helicopter like a modeler but enjoy seeing immediate results. Or you can play in 42 missions in 7 different environments like a child's bedroom, hospital, hotel room and more. Discover hidden areas and coins with your air cannon and lift suction. Or battle against a friend in 2-player Split Screen Mode in a Race for the Rings Mode to see who's the best helicopter pilot.

 Decent game for the money -- nothing spectacular June 9, 2008

For the price, this game is not bad. However, it really isn't anything that takes advantage of the Wii hardware, in terms of level of detail, visual effects, and the like.
Re-playability is low due to the fact that the single player game track takes you through the same few levels many many times (with slightly different challenges).
The game would be much better if there were more or larger levels to explore (or both), more "free roaming" missions, and mini-games.
The concept is great --- What is needed is an add-on pack with new vehicles, "dogfight" missions, and many more, larger levels.
 A fun, cheap, and good buy April 26, 2008

I bought this game because I am a huge fan of games where you play as small things, especially the Chibi Robo series. If you are a fan of the Chibi Robo games, you know all to well how much fun it can be doing seemingly mundane tasks. Minicopter Adventure Flight is very much similar to Chibi Robo.
You command a miniature helicopter and complete missions in a variety of different environments. They range from a child's bedroom, hospital, office, park, etc. You are given six different missions to do, and are graded according to your speed and how much damage you take. This is where the replayability comes into play, you will want to get "Perfect" on every mission.
As you progress you earn money to buy more helicopters and parts. Perfectionists will definitely want to own every single item. The games graphics are very simple, but thankfully it's a budget game. The motion controls are FANTASTIC, the game also supports the Wii Classic Controller. It runs in 480 progressive scan and 16:9 widescreen mode. There is also a competitive multiplayer mode.
For $30 you could do a lot worse than Minicopter Adventure Flight. It's a simple yet fun game appropriate for all members of the family. I am very happy I purchased this game and I hope it garners more retail sales!
