Planet Quiz: Learn & Discover
Critic Reviews for Planet Quiz: Learn & Discover
Planet Quiz: Learn & Discover is aimed at a specific audience and is aware that it's not going to be topping many peoples wishlist, but if you have a love for all things Earth, animals, and culture, I'm sure you'd be able to have a fairly decent, albeit short, time with this. That said, if you are passionate about those subjects, it's likely that this may not be very challenging at all, and just confirm what you know. Its three quiz modes are the same and do little outside of this to keep gameplay fresh and exciting after a short burst of rounds.
This is an odd conclusion to write. Because of the relatively small amount of content, minor production issues, and slightly high price point (in my opinion anyway), I can’t say that I recommend this game for most players (without a price drop. As of this writing, it is on sale at a slight discount). However, our rating system is based on whether I like the game, and that is a definite yes! In fact, I’m enjoying this so much that I plan to buy the expansion of the oceans. So if you’re a very specific type of gamer for whom Carmen Sandiego, the National Spelling Bee, and Brain Quest are remembered with fondness, or you still love them now, this game is probably for you even with its faults and price point. I just wouldn’t recommend it if you find geography easy or boring.
I wish I could be more positive but Planet Quiz fails pretty hard to be any kind of fun.
Educational games are always going to be pretty tough to review, as in the minds of most people the concept of learning and fun are mutually exclusive...
