WINNIE THE POOH: TIGGERS HONEY HUNT IN SOUTH AFRICA

Whether through the original AA Milne novels and stories, or the Walt Disney film adaptations, the misadventures of Pooh, Christopher Robin, Tigger and Piglet provide a completely entertaining diversion from ordinary storytelling. The story in Tigger's Honey Hunt starts with Pooh, who is planning a grand party. But he can't begin to plan the bash without knowing that he has sufficient honey for his guests to enjoy. Bouncing along in his own inimitable way, Tigger pledges to help Pooh locate enough honey pots to get the party off the ground. Crisp backgrounds, colourful worlds and superb animation make this a fun romp through the Hundred Acre Woods. Gameplay mechanics are straightforward and aimed at the right demographic. For anyone but children, however, this game is too short and doesn't have enough individual play modes. It also misses Paul Winchell's deft voice-over talent, but there's only so much data that you can fit on a Nintendo 64 cartridge. Tigger's Honey Hunt really knows what it wants to be: a children's game. As such, it succeeds in providing a darned good (if short) time. --Todd Mowatt
