Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom is a Platforming game available on the Wii. It can be played in Thirdperson Assistance Singleplayer modes.

Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom is a Platforming game. Platform games task you with getting from point A to point B. The world you journey through is usually based on different levels, and populated with enemies, switches and lifts to be negotiated. As you work through each level you pick up various collectables that accrue score, special abilities and access to hidden areas.

Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom can be played in a Thirdperson mode. Third Person games view the world from over the right shoulder of the character being controlled. This enables you to see the character you are controlling as well as their surrounds. Although not as immersive as first person, third person games enable more complex moves and interactions with the environment.

Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom can be played in a Assistance mode. Assistance multiplayer games provide a cooperative experience where players of different abilities can collaborate. Some examples, such as Mario Galaxy or Modern Warfare Reflex on the Wii, enable a more experienced player to jump in and help the less experienced. This also works in reverse, where the expert player controls the main flow of the game and the novice plays a supporting role, such as in Viva Pinata on the 360, something that make these games ideal for families.

Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom can be played in a Singleplayer mode. Single Player Campaign games focus on one player's experience. Rather than collaborate with other players either locally or online, players progress alone. The campaign style of gameplay offers a connected series of challenges to play through. These chapters work together to tell a story through which players progress. Single player games are able to focus on one experience of a scenario, so that it is usually a richer, more visceral game.

Family Gamer review Tue, 04 May 2010

Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Crystal Kingdom continues 2K's tradition of excellently balance platform games for kids. Like previous Dora and Diego games on the Nintendo Wii it delivers super easy controls, and plenty of excitement, all in a genuine platform game experience that's wrapped up with great child voice acting.
