The Nintendo DS has its fair share of kiddy titles in addition to more mature themed ones, but Mister Slime from SouthPeak Games lean more towards the former. Rated “E” for everyone, you can be sure that there won’t be any slashing and killing going on, offering wholesome family fun for everyone - I do suspect that the older kids will probably give this $19.99 titles a miss though as there isn’t any bloodshed going on, and to make it all worse, you don’t have anyone or anything to shoot at. Sigh - and to think games were successful last time without the need for wanton violence and destruction.

Tucked away in the deepest, darkest corner of the universe lies a seemingly peaceful world inhabited by strange and fascinating creatures. The Slimes and the Axons are the chief inhabitants of the planet, and they have brought chaos to the planet with constant bickering over the limited resources available to them. Every 40 years there are ritual battles held to redefine the territorial boundaries for each clan. No one, Axon or Slime, has had the courage to step up and stop this viscous cycle - until now. Players enter the world as Slimey, a young slime determined to stop the violence between the warring clans. Using the touch screen and microphone capabilities of Nintendo DS, players must navigate the levels by stretching and manipulating Slimey’s arms to grab hold of small anchor points scattered throughout each level.

Graphics look too cartoony for my tastes, but hey, if it has been rated “E�, who am I to argue?
