This is a perfect Nintendo DS game. It is a game that was designed with children in mind, but is enjoyable, probably even more so, by adults. It is a challenging game, and thought needs to be put into it to get through the levels. The levels are mazes, and the challenge is to get through the levels while taking care of some very fragile souls. You are entrusted with delivering these souls to a place at the end of each maze, and you carry them around inside protective bubbles, hence the name, "Soul Bubbles".
This is the fifth DS game I've played, and so far my favorite. When I first started playing it, I didn't realize how addicting it would be. But the truth is, it is a laid back game, with no time pressures on you, or tons of enemies attacking you. It is a strategy game where obstacles are placed in your path, and you have to use the resources found in your environment to get past those obstacles. There are a number of treasures or objects that can be found within the mazes, and it's not easy to find them all, or in some cases, easy to reach them all; you have to be creative in your methods. That is why adults will fare better at this game than children.
The music and sound effects are beautiful and esthetically very pleasing. No corny soundtracks can be found in this game. The artwork is very effective and pleasant, and the dynamics of objects in the environment obey the laws of physics very well. Overall, the game was designed and tested to the point where I can't find any faults in the game play. I enjoyed it from beginning to end.
Be prepared to spend about 16-hours to complete the entire game. After playing it once through, you can probably complete it again in 8-hours. There are 7-environments in which you travel. Each environment contains 5-levels of mazes, with each one increasing in difficulty, and with more challenges and resources for you to overcome and use. The levels are not repetitive, and each one offers a different flavor and charm.
If you are a true gamer, this is definitely one for you.
