Fabulous portable game with secret agent theme.
Parents need to know that this is a game based on the world created in Club Penguin.com. Similar to the Web site, you create a penguin avatar to represent you as you waddle through this mission-based game. This DS game has a direct tie-in to the Web site because kids can transfer the coins they earn in the game to their account online via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. You can also download the newest Club Penguin newsletters, vote in polls, and download additional missions as they become available. Plus, the game contains a secret code for use on the Club Penguin Web site which will unlock secret items online. The age appropriateness of 7 years reflects that there is a lot of reading required to play this game. However, if parents want to play with their young children, this game offers a way for a parent to be the Command Coach, highlighting areas to explore.
