'Best Game on the Wii' is kind of a backhanded compliment, since nearly every Wii game I've ever played is really awful. But Shiren isn't like other Wii games.It's a Roguelike. Not a hardcore Roguelike by any means, but it's in the genre. If you're a Roguelike fan who owns a Wii then it is absolutely worth buying. It holds up well, and there's nothing else out there really. If you've never played a Roguelike before, Roguelikes mostly center around randomly generated dungeons that can be replayed, and at the very least, a stern penalty if you die. They tend to be a lot more open and less linear than games like Final Fantasy, so you as a player can do things off the beaten path and the game is OK with you doing that.As a Roguelike, Shiren the Wanderer is fairly easy. It's tough enough that you can still die sometimes if you're careless (I've died once), but if you die, you only lose equipment, not start from scratch as is typical. Also, unlike other Roguelikes I've played, you can buy 'Escape Scrolls' which will take you out of a dungeon if it looks like you won't be able to survive. I'm on Chapter 8 and so far I've not encountered anything which I've had to run from, and the traps I've encountered are more annoying than actually dangerous.An interesting thing I've seen is that several of the dungeons I've gone into have required that I start at level 1, then I regain my old level once I leave the dungeon (but I get to keep whatever stuff I found). So those dungeons are more like mini Roguelikes in and of themselves.Since this is a console title, graphics and music are much better than your average Roguelike, and the plot looks interesting so far.I haven't finished the whole game, or even know if I need to stop playing this character at a certain point, but I've gone far enough that I can safely give it 5 stars. The Wii desperately needs a couple more innovative titles like this - games that are not gimmicky and are actually interesting to play for more than a few hours.
