7 Wonders of the Ancient World for Nintendo DS Review
7 Wonders of the Ancient World is a puzzle type game for the Nintendo DS. In each level you try to clear matching tiles to clear all the squares in the background and make the capstone reach the bottom row. You have to match up a minimum of three tiles to make them clear (much like the Pokemon Puzzle League games and Sutek’s Tomb on Neopets). You get special combo blocks when you do combo moves and clear four or more tiles in a row. Bonuses include clearing a whole row at once. As you clear the levels you get closer to finishing building the 7 Wonders, such as the Pyramids at Giza, until you have built them all.
Overall this is the best puzzle game I have played on the Nintendo DS so far. It can be addictive if you are into puzzle games, but if you are not into puzzle games then you will probably find it quickly repetitive and boring.
