Monster Lab takes place in the Uncanny Valley, where four mad scientists once ruled in relative peace. However, Baron Mharti let the power go to his head, and he has since declared himself supreme ruler of the land, and he unleashes his vicious creatures on anyone who dares oppose him. As the new mad scientist on the block, you are seen by the others as the one who may finally be able to take down the evil (even by their standards) baron and make life comfortable once again.
Nintendo Life writes: "Despite a few minor shortcomings Monster Lab is a great 3rd party effort for the Wii which has solid controls that make great use of the Remote and will appeal to a broad age range. Kudos to Eidos and Backbone Entertainment for this excellent offering on the Wii, which will hopefully inspire other developers to turn out quality titles".
Baron Mharti is large and in charge! With a nasty habit of being extra cruel, the Baron has taken over and it's up to you to beat the evil Baron Mharti and his band of wacky creatures. With the help of a few zany experiments, over 150 monster parts, and some crazy mini-games, create your very own army of twisted monsters and battle it out with the Baron.

With all of the Wii titles, the golden standard, surprisingly, has always been Wii Sports. For a free game included with the console, it served as the best example of how the controllers should function within a game. With Monster Lab, however, I think I've found a new benchmark."
