GameSpot has reviewed Boom Blox and while they found it to be entertaining enough, it just has too much repetitive gameplay to garner anything more than a 7.0 score. That’s not the only thing they didn’t like, they also seemed to want a better story and characters out of the game. Hey, fun is fun in my book and I’ll be for sure picking this one up.

It stumbles with certain game modes and its effort to appeal to kids with a poorly integrated story is ham-fisted at best, but Boom Blox is still a good game. Most of the hundreds of puzzles are fun to play alone, and it’s also entertaining to taunt friends during their turn as they try to keep a tower from collapsing. The ability to create your own levels adds quite a bit of value as well. In terms of where it ranks in Spielberg’s body of work, Boom Blox is no Schindler’s List, but it’s a heck of a lot better than Hook.
