4 out of 5 stars Target Practice!!   November 29, 2008
Another Weasley (Scotland)
The game is good, it is basically a target practice game, where you try and score as many points as possible. Some of the targets are stationary, some move slightly and others are moving enemies. My favourite level involves Link (you) flowing down a river, trying to shoot enemies and targets, it looks good and is a fun level. If anyone has played Twilight Princess they will recognise the locations and enemies.

The problem with the game is that it is too short. You can easily complete it in one sitting and be left there thinking.....is that it?
Yes, you can go back and try to better your score, but it would have been better if there were more levels or it was a bit more difficult.

The "wii zapper" is a great idea, its easy to use and works well with Crossbow training. However, I am quite disappointed in the lack of titles that support the "wii zapper", it would make a fantastic first person shooter with online capabilities.

Overall, for the price, it is quite good! The game is short (so be aware) but it can be replayed, and can be quite addictive trying to get higher scores. Hopefully in the future there will be more games released that make good use of the wii zapper, maybe even a follow up to crossbow training!



4 out of 5 stars Don't buy a spare gun!   September 27, 2008

I bought this game for my boys and being a considerate mum (to avoid the fighting) I bought a spare gun / crossbow for the second controller.

It would appear that you can only set it up for one controller which is them passed between players. (If I'm wrong I'm hoping someone will explain how to get the second one working!)

So - in short - good game but don't waste your money buying a second gun / crossbow.



4 out of 5 stars Great game!   August 25, 2008
David Davies (Manchester)
This is a really good game to start off on the Wii. It is quite short and didnt take me long to complete but its not a lot of money so you cant say your being ripped off.


5 out of 5 stars Great gun & great game!   August 8, 2008
A. Findlay
The gun is of good design to fit both the remote & nunchuk - the game is great fun, many different levels & a practice mode - and even once completed - there's always the carrot of getting platinum medals on all levels. Well worth the money !


4 out of 5 stars Lots of fun, except for the gun   June 8, 2008

The zapper itself is solid and feels like it's made of good quality materials. It's cleverly designed as well, keeping the nunchuck lead snugly wrapped up in the rear handle, where it contributes to the weight and balance of the zapper. Like other people who have reviewed it, however, I think that the two-handle design feels a bit awkward, regardless of whether you have your right hand at the front on the trigger, or at the back on the nunchuck stick. I find that my arms and hands ache after using it for about 30 minutes, because you have to bend your elbows-in and wrists-out to keep your hands in-line on the two handles.

The best part of this package is the game, Link's Crossbow Training: ironic since it's a pretty simple collection of mini shooting games. But how much fun it is! Like the `shoot the balloons' game in Wii Play, the games are very short and formulaic, with enemies or targets appearing in the same formations each time. Also like shoot-the-balloons, you get score multipliers if you continue to rack up consecutive hits. This is the beauty of the game: the games are so short, the urge to have `just one more go' to beat your high score is irresistible. Each level is made up of three sub-games, and to beat your target score you have to be good on all of them, meaning that the urge to replay is even greater when you know that you had a bad time on just one of the levels. Before you know it, an hour has been frittered away! The authors have helpfully included practice stages where you can hone your skills on any stage of any unlocked level. Although the game is very short and you will have unlocked all the stages in an hour or two, the replay value is immense because of the urge to beat your high score and to find all the hidden goodies when you shoot other parts of the scenery on each level.

Like Mario Kart and its wheel, Link's Crossbow Training is far better to play when you don't bother with the zapper, and play it using the normal remote + nunchuck method. If the zapper came without the game, I probably would not recommend it, but the game alone is well worth the asking price!
