a lot of talking.It's a cool game.It's sad you have to defeat the cutest guys though.



5 out of 5 stars A little challenging and a lot of fun   September 17, 2008
Reading Raven (FL United States)
Drawn to Life is a unique game where you draw your own character. You unlock weapons and use cool attacks to fight the"Darkness"(shadow creatures).
To help get thru levels you draw platforms, bridges, bounce pads and sometimes vehicles. Your character rescues villagers throughout the levels and finds items to upgrade and unlock colors,etc. The more levels you complete the more you clear out the town from the darkness and draw things for that town.
This is an interesting, fun and one of a kind game that allows you to be creative.
Highly recommend!



3 out of 5 stars Great Idea, Poor gameplay.   September 6, 2008
Chef BRD (Hawaii)
Drawing your own character and seeing him move on a screen is pretty amazing. That's probably the best part of the game. From then on, it's pretty much downhill. You get to draw other things in the world like clouds, springs, and slime. You also get to draw your spaceship but that was pretty color inside the lines. The gameplay was roaming in an RPG world, then entering a side-scrolling adventure. But it was pretty repetitive and got old really fast.
Overall: Drawing the character is amazing, the gameplay sucks.

I personally enjoy drawing and designing things. so i bought this game for my younger brother. i also played on it and found it quite interesting. not only the drawing, but the story was also quite adventurous.

What "draw" me to this game (no pun intended), was the fact that you could create your own character and other elements in the game. Sounds fun, no?

That is not as fun as it should be, mainly because you are limited to the space, proportions and templates that the game gives you. There's not that much depth in it, and after an hour or two of playing you'll just be doing things just to get them over with.

Gameplay wise is boring, jump here, shoot there, and backtrack if you forgot something. This is the most annoying aspect of the gameplay. In each level you must rescue three "raposas" and collect 4 torn pieces of a template. If you skipped one, you won't be able to move on, but the game doesn't even remotely tells you what section you may or may not have missed. Making backtraging tedious and a constant.

The game difficulty is very easy, but in some stages is easy to die while jumping or flying, mainly because when you jump or "take-off" you won't be able to see the enemies coming right at you making you lose health or die.

Story wise, you play as the creator (you know God), who must help a village to defeat darkness. This is how the game goes:

1-Talk to mayor
2-Talk to some other raposa
3-Talk to mayor
4-Tap on the flame of life
5-Remove darkness from one section
6-Talk to previous raposa
7-Return to talk to the mayor
7.5 You may need to talk to another raposa again
8-Go through a gate and start "playing."

Is really annoying, the characters are dumb, there's really no meat to the story. You never feel bad for them, at a point I saw why the "creator" forgot about them, they' boring, annoying and demanding.

After reaching the "beach area" they say,: oh thank you the beach is great, but we're bored, can you draw some toys for us to enjoy." Hello, the creator doesn't do that you do dumb citizen!

This is the only game I've ever wanted to grab and throw out of the window, smash it with a hammer and burn it. It is that bad.
