Line Rider's core concept is great, and this sequel does pretty much what it sets out to do: monetize the free online toy with added gameplay, visuals, and music.

Puzzles are engaging and plentiful, and the freestyle mode can easily occupy days of solid creativity.

Line Rider 2: Unbound is a fairly decent port of an interesting Flash game, but there are some problems keeping the Wii experience from fully living up to its potential.

In Line Rider 2: Unbound, you'll experience a love-hate relationship with squiggly lines.

But for a cheaper price point of the $30 range, Line Rider 2: Unbound is still worthy to be at least a rental. Or go find the original version online for free.

Don’t forget to go into the sound options and turn off the god-awful music.

It’s all good, but it’s still a simple premise that wears out sooner rather than later for most folks – a free game that lasts this long is great, but when we’re shelling out actual money, we have higher expectations.

As a creative tool Unbound is great, but as a game it feels a little sparse. Despite its seemingly casual nature, the technical side of Unbound shouldn't be underestimated -- it quickly frustrates players looking for a light challenge while rewarding the more dedicated who are willing to invest the time.

Line Rider's transition from Flash-based phenomenon to full-fledged Wii game is a bumpy one. [Nov 2008, p.98]

It's not a bad concept, but Line Rider 2: Unbound feels like so much of the shovelware that's infested Nintendo's mega-huge console.
