This is not the most polished on the wii but it is one of the more higher quality. This is a simple point and click adventure game. If you played Tales of monkey island you will be familiar with the playstyle of classic adventure games only broken up into five bitesize chunks that arn't too confusing or long. The story takes place about 6 months after Back to the Future Part 3, where the Delorian travels to Marty in 1986 and you soon find yourself in multiple time periods that all aboud Doc Brown.

Each chapter takes about two hours to complete if you take time to explore the world, and you should. This game is jam-packed with cool Eighties refrences to things from Wierd Science, to Star Wars, and even Tron.
The best part of this game is easily the sound quality and attention to music and voice acting, its so reminiscent of the classic films that you can easily overlook the cartoonish graphics.

The bad parts of this game is the port to the wii. The graphics don't look as good as it's pc counterpart and the framerate can be terrible at times. This game also tends to have frequent loading that interupts the gameplay. However since this is not the type of game that needs lightning fast reflexes of boasts mind-blowing graphics. these issues can easily be overlooked.

A Wholey satifyiny experience with plenty of charm and great respect for it's source material, Back to the Future Tha Game is a very fun, very casual point and click experience That fans of the films have to love.

This game would not load at all on my WII, I tried cleaning my machine but kept receiving an error. So I tried another game and it worked fine then attempted B2F again with no success.
