Magnetic Gamer review Wed, 30 Sep 2009

After a day spent with my seven year old son, teaching him basic electronics and planning out a home-made pinball machine, it was both amusing and apt that we should sit down to play on Disney's Pheneas and Ferb that evening. Luckily you don't have to be a fan of the TV show to understand what's going on or enjoy playing the game - the back story and the catchphrases are all apparent in the tutorial level.

The story of the game amusingly paralleled that of me and my son, with the two protagonists finding new and amusing technological ways to amuse themselves over the course of the summer holiday. Each level is based around planning and building an amusement ride by rummaging through rubbish bins and crates to find the necessary components, sprawled over a pseudo 3D platform environment. The two characters each have their respective skills and can combine them to amusing effect such as climbing a ladder and balancing on a tightrope together. There are the usual gadgets to collect like running / jumping shoes but what is different is that due to the nature of the game you can upgrade them with the parts or scraps you find. After finding all the parts and plans, you then get to go on the ride itself, in race against the clock to unlock additional bonus items.
