The animation of the characters still has a lot of appeal, but feels out of place and a bit too stiff. The game's introductory menus, pause screen and save/load features are bare bones, contrasting oddly with today's more sleekly-modern Wii menus.
Nothing has been done to update the adventure besides swapping in Wii Remote IR functionality for the PC original's mouse cursor controls - the graphics, sound and interface all still look like they were taken straight off a mid-'90s Pentium running Windows '95. But while the game certainly deserved those accolades a decade ago and its characters and plot have withstood the test of time, it's undeniable that this adventure is an artifact from an earlier age of gaming.Įach environment is filled with buttons, doors, characters and all sorts of other interactive, clickable elements. It was the first adventure for the character of Spy Fox (a spoof of James Bond and Maxwell Smart, among others) and ultimately formed the foundation for a franchise comprised of several subsequent sequels - it won a lot of awards in its day, and was widely praised for its innovation, animation and attitude. Spy Fox in Dry Cereal is not an original game made for Wii, but rather a port of a PC point-and-click that was first released over 11 years ago, in 1997. It's an intriguingly comical premise, perfectly appropriate for the game's target age range of "6 and up." The only unfortunate thing is that that premise is more than six years old itself. Spy Fox in Dry Cereal tells the tale of an intrepid secret agent on a mission to moisten - the whole world's been deprived of dairy, and he's out to put a stop to the sinister madmen who've stolen all the milk.
