I just finished the WiiWare game Lostwinds by UK developer Frontier. It is, in one word: amazing.

Yes, it is definitely short. I completed the game in about 2 and 1/2 hours, give or take. But it never once disappointed in the least. The concept of controlling the wind and a character in unison is so expertly crafted, that it is impossible to come up with a single gripe about the control mechanism. Everything works flawlessly. And the graphics are simple and elegant, every moment of the game is gorgeous to watch.

It’s already clear from the conclusion of the game that there will be more to come. As for me, I will gladly toss an additional $10 at Frontier for another 2 and 1/2 hours of this marvelous creation.
