Wizards of Waverley Place (Nintendo DS)

I am a huge fan of the Disney Channel and this is my favourite TV show so I was really pleased to have a look at the game for the DS.

You control the three main characters in the show Alex, Justin or Max and the action takes place in the mortal world and the wizarding world.

The aim is to complete the 5 episodes by using magic to find, move or collect things, in the game you have to perform different magical challenges and tasks such as using your wand to freeze, levitate, and undo other magic and repair things.

You also get to make sandwiches at Waverly Sub Station and have to catch flying sandwiches and re-arrange them.

The settings are very good and look just like the show and it is brilliant how all the characters and locations from the show are used in the game.

There are lots of things to unlock and you do this by clicking on objects around you to find coins and jewels - these let you buy new outfits etc.

You can explore Alex's journal and play Alex and Dean's favourite game, there is a locker game that you can play in the school where you have to remember the order the locker moves and repeat it - that's good fun!

Fans of the show like me will love it, it is really good fun and makes you feel like you are a part of it.
