As a little pirate with big dreams, Zach doesn't just have his sights set on mere treasure or spectacularly speedy pirateships - he wants to be the greatest pirate who ever lived! To reach that lofty goal, he is going to have to outwit, outsmart and outduel every obstacle that gets in his way. It's a good thing he's found his new enchanted pal, Wiki, a magical hand bell with the power to transform any object into something practical. Get ready to explore seven vibrant and fantastic lands, from lush jungles and frigid ice temples to colossal castles and floating airships. Each level contains multiple sub-levels of peril, puzzles and plunder. Play alone or as a group to work through each increasingly complex puzzle. Use the Wii Remote to navigate, open objects, transform items and unlock new pathways with a whole new variety of methods. Even boss battles are puzzle-based, so you'll need to think on your feet!

I want a sequel!!!:
I LOVED this game. I love puzzle games anyway, but this one was so much more fun than other puzzle games. The story element was engaging and the characters fun to play. My only complaint is that on some levels they give you directions on how to pull every lever, even when they were identical. That got annoying. I think we realize that if we have to pull down like a bell rope, we would know to do that throughout the game without having to be reminded every time. That being said, it's a minor... more info
An Overlooked Gem:
This has to be one of my favorite Wii games. It is nice to see Capcom bring back the point and click adventure genre. Though sadly it went unapperciated. My wife and I both had a blast playing it (it isn't two player but sitting on the couch taking turns trying to figure out the puzzles was great fun). In Zack and Wiki you play as a pirate who is searching for golden pieces of a legendary pirate who promises you great treasure if you put him back together. Each level is a puzzle you must solve in order... more info
Fun puzzle solving:
Involves performing certain tasks before being able to proceed to the next steps. Many of the stages are ok. But there are some that are really difficult without any tips. Fun specially when you clear one stage. Haven't finished the game yet so I am not sure if it still is interesting after clearing all the stages. It also involves player interaction by utilizing the use of the wiimote in different configurations.
One of the Best Wii Titles:
Great game! Wonderful art style. Hard to describe the game's genre. It is a puzzle game, but probably nothing like you played before. The closest game it comes close to is the goblin games for the PC. Waring game puzzles are clever and some are quite hard!(but no fear if you get stuck just check the internet)
