Cute but frustrating
I didn't play this game on the Wii when it came out, so this was a new experience to me. It's a pretty cute game, and could have a lot of potential in terms of story and world building and even interactions. It's sort of a mix between pikmin (throwing your followers at tasks and/or enemies) and kingdom building. Apparently the story is pretty interesting too, but I was not able to get very far in it. The problems are with the controls and the interface. It's not just an old game issue - Pikmin itself is both older and better in this way. I even connected up a controller, because keyboard controls exist but are definitely unplayable. It's really hard to aim your guys at the place where you want them to go. There are events where you ask your digger guys to dig a hole, and then enemies come out of the hole, and you are supposed to tell your fighter guys to fight the bad guys. This is basically impossible! Even when the interface assures you that you are sending your fighter guy to fight the enemy, the fighter guy instead runs into the hole and loses health because fighters lose health if you try to get them to dig. Meanwhile, your diggers are losing health because the enemy is attacking them. Meanwhile, you can only see the health stat for the first three guys in your party; and you only see the first five guys in your party in the HUD; and you have extremely limited control of how to arrange your followers in your party. A person's health seems to change randomly(???) each time you try to give them a new job. The map is pretty useless. The camera rotation controls are super slow for no apparent reason. And the final straw - the game only has manual saves in one specific place on the map, and it occasionally crashes just as you are walking up to that place!
