NintendoLife: Earlier this year we were pleasantly surprised by Lola's Alphabet Train, a rewardingly sweet journey through simple spelling drills. It was colourful, engaging and inventive.

"When someone prefaces an offer for employment with phrases like 'amazing opportunity' and 'personally beneficial', I doubt you'd picture yourself working at a concession stand.

Pitching the idea of management and educational learning is Lola's Fruit Shop Sudoku, a game that strives to instruct kids on Sudoku principles at an easygoing pace -- and does a fair job of it, too." -- Wiiloveit.com

Lola’s Fruit Shop Sudoku most likely won’t satisfy an audience outside of young children, though even that appeal is questionable.
