Igor lures players through Malaria, a world where mad scientists create dubious inventions to compete in the annual Evil Science Fair. Igor, the movie, follows a hunchbacked lab assistant named Igor (voiced by John Cusack) forced to serve a mad scientist while dreaming of one day becoming a notorious mad scientist himself and winning the Evil Science Fair. The Nintendo DS version utilizes the stylus to perform movement combinations, combat enemies and solve puzzles. Players can custom build their own monsters to take on puzzle challenges and battle against other mad scientists. [SouthPeak Interactive]

Cheat Code Central
The game is ultimately built upon the one element, and it gets old fast.

GameFocus
The game is nothing more than a video game based on a few interesting concepts from other noteworthy games and it does nothing more then slightly amuse the player for a couple of hours at most. Rent it or stay away from it. Not worth buying.

The puzzle fighting is sloppy and extremely slow paced.
