I got to play with this game and see a demo of it. This game is everything Madison loves about gaming. She loves exploring. She also loves Zoobles toys so this is a great combination. I also love that this is something that interests girls — there aren’t many games on the market designed for girls. (Not that boys can’t play with it). I love that it isn’t a shoot ’em game too!

Since I think this is such a great game, I have arranged for one lucky reader of mine to win the Zoobles DS game and a Zooble Toy! Here’s what you need to do:Read More »Zoobles DS Giveaway!
