Zack & Wiki: Quest For Barbaros' Treasure for the Nintendo Wii is a sweet adventure game with something to offer for young and old players. Capcom masterfully blends treasure hunting with the motion sensitive controllers with excellent results, and you absolutely need to experience it.

Zack is a pirate who works for a crew called the Sea Rabbits. He's off on a whirlwind adventure with his helpful assistant, a golden flying monkey named Wiki. Along the way, a renegade group called the Rose Rock pirates launch an ambush, forcing them to eject from their aircraft. They land on a nearby island and discover a magical skull in a treasure chest, belonging to the legendary pirate Barbaros. He strikes a deal with the pair – help him find his precious skeletal parts and he'll reward them with a wish. With Captain Rose and her fellow pirates in pursuit, the adventure begins.

The game solely uses the Wii remote. Zack moves from point to point by clicking on where you want him to go. Throughout the adventure, he gains access to numerous items, like a Centisaw (an insect turned into a cutting tool) and a bell (Wiki's main transformation).

You'll use the remote a number of different ways. One stage has you holding it straight up like an umbrella handle, pressing a button to activate it. Another has you cradling it like a newborn kitten, swaying back and forth. Quest For Barbaros' Treasure literally has dozens of these configurations, keeping the game fresh and lively throughout each stage. It's like Wario Ware's functions mapped into a platformer.
