CBVGR: LOL

Title: LOL: Never Party Alone!
System: DS
Rating: E
Paid: 100 points on Goozex, or $10 on Ebay
Story: First there is a game called WTF, now a game called LOL. Still no multiplayer ROFLCopter game.

Review: First thing to be addressed is that you cannot play this alone! You must have friends, significant others, or just other people to play this game. Everyone needs their own DS, but not their own copy of the game. Only one copy of LOL is required to play.

This seems like the laziest idea of a game I've ever seen. There is nothing to this game except for a drawing board. This is where you can draw or erase... that's it! There isn't any different colors, no ability to change the size of the paint brush tool, and no shape builder! You know you're lazy when you can't accomplish something better than Microsoft Paint.

The actual game is that one player asks a question, and everyone answers the question. The question could be: How many hair pores do I personally have on my head? Also it could be a challenge like draw a guy having a bad day that got drenched in the rain. You come up with the game! Each player takes turns making challenges, until they snap their DS in half.

They have this voting system too which was awful. You get three stars to give to the best answer, of course you can also vote on yourself, so that's exactly what happens. Everyone spends all 3 stars on themselves and it's a tied game every time.

Final Say:
I'm not going to lie, I "lawled" many times playing this game. The point is to make each person laugh, and it worked. It did get to the point where we wouldn't even make challenges and just write obscene words and gestures on the DS screen (probably not the intention the developers had in mind, or then again maybe it was). Lasting a half an hour playing this game is not worth the $10. With a quickly put together game, with a lot of things they could have put into it, this game is just not worth your time.
