The combat is good but the computer AI is at times perfect in combat which is an issue. The linear way in which the game plays out hurts the game when compared to other RPG games out for the PSP right now.

Role-playing enthusiasts will probably deem it too underdeveloped for their tastes, but Neopets fanatics and younger players should come away satisfied.

While the gameplay is fairly entertaining, and the environments and effects are quite nice, the game starts to chug when too much is going on, and the so-so sound and menial menus will have you feeling that the game is lacking a certain amount of polish.

The many different details that affect the Petpets are very interesting and in a bigger adventure they could have had a bigger impact. Many of the pieces are in place, they just need a home.

Its cute and fluffy appearance is deceiving, as The Wand of Wishing turns out to be less accessible than the action RPGs it is derived from.

Neopets tries to be the cute alternative to your basic dungeon hack, but thanks to some questionable development choices, a sluggish combat system and some truly boring level designs, it's a hard game to recommend to anybody.

It provides an adult style of gameplay with but set in a non-adult world that most parents could find little to complain about. However, for the older gamers out there, Neopets won’t serve as more than a passing distraction at best.
