(More customer reviews)The newly released Scene It? Twilight Deluxe Edition DVD game came out on October 1st, and here's a review from a Twilight fan for Twilight fans.
First of all, if you're unfamiliar with the Scene It? game series, you should get familiar because they're incredibly fun.
The games combine the traditional realm of board games with DVD play in a way that isn't too confusing or distracting but is, instead, modern and interactive.
The Twilight version of Scene It? is catered to the 2008 film, and it incorporates clips and subtleties contained in the film - be it dialogue, scenery, or other various detail.
The game contains several of such particularized elements. For instance, the playing pieces are the shape of things like a baseball and Charlie's house. Also, the questions are orchestrated to be befitting of the most ardent and taxingly knowledgeable of Twilight fans. For instance, one question card (of hundreds) contains the following three questions (see if you can answer the questions without looking them up).
* Where does Edward say he was when the van almost hit Bella?
* What kind of sandwich does Bella have in the cafe with Charlie?
* What is the name of Bella's stepfather?
Okay, so not impossible questions necessarily but certainly fun.
As for the DVD game features, there is quite a variety (that would take hours upon end to discover the full extent of). As a sample preview, some screenshots of the game at play are included in the slideshow below. The DVD questions, too, are narrated by the one and only Peter Facinelli (Dr. Cullen in the film series).
Other aspects of gameplay run similar to the more traditional versions of Scene It? (like Scene It? The DVD Game) in that the object is substantially similar and the methods of winning and movement are the same. For those less familiar with the Scene It? series, the gist of the game is to make it to the end of the board (which happens to actually be the middle of the board) and to answer the final trivia question (or set of trivia questions, dependant on how savvy and versed you happen to be on the film's subtleties) to win.
The best part of the game is the way it has transformed Twilight (the film) while still retaining the mystical and romantic elements. You'll notice, when playing, that some of the very small - but ultra relevant to fans - portions of the game are brought to a whole new light. For instance, one question (or challenge, rather) that the DVD portion of the game offers is a "keep your eye on the ball" challenge - a play, you might've guessed, on the baseball scene. Accompanying the challenge is the music that accompanied the baseball scene in the film. Thusly, the feel and magic of the film scene is transcendant into the game itself.
The Twilight Scene It? game is also very fun to play between Twilight fans who claim to have the one-up on one another in the way of trivia knowledge. There's always something to be learned, and this game certainly raises that awareness.
The best part of the game is the absolute wealth of available questions and challenges. You might think that a two hour movie would yield limited possibilities, but the people at Scene It? definitely took the film to all new heights in putting together this game. As said, it'd probably take many, many hours to get through the thousands of questions and challenges in the game - both in the DVD form and the card question form.
As a final comment on the game, the challenges offered in it are not pandering or overly simplified. It is clear that the creators were aware, in making the game, that players would be the most acclaimed afficionados of the series. That said, it is fun for Twilight experts as well as first-time Twilight fans!
