The Wii ushered in a new era of videogames, for better or for worse, forever changing the way we interface with games. Until the Wii, controllers were becoming more and more complex, adding more buttons and alienating would-be gamers with their increas...

As the first game from Yuji Naka’s new Prope studio, Let’s Tap comes with a weight of expectation few other Wii party games have to bear. Sadly, the unbridled imagination of the father of Sonic isn’t enough to elevate Let’s Tap to WarioWare levels of m...
It’s certainly encouraging to see Yuji Naka returning to the sort of original experimental projects that helped carve his reputation in the Nineties, and we’d happily take this over anything Sonic Team has produced in the last eight years, but...

I once called Wii Sports a glorified tech demo on the GamePro forums, much to the chagrin of the Wii fanboys. I didnt do it to demean the game in any way -- after all this time, it still remains the quintessential Wii experience -- but lets be honest here: Wii Sports wasnt a game so much as it was a showcase of the Wii Remotes capabilities. And really, theres nothing wrong with that. Theres also nothing wrong with what Lets Tap is trying to do either: its yet another tech demo that furt...
Interesting and innovative use of the Wii Remote tech...
The included mini-games lose their appeal after a while, is there enough ’game’ to satisfy gamers?...
I didn’t quite know what to make of Let’s Tap when it first showed up in the GP offices, and was even more surprised at the amount of attention it was drawing. When I finally sat in on a few rounds of Tap Runner, I’ll admit — I was...

It’s a good sign when a game controlled with finger taps has music we’d happily tap our fingers to. Yes, Let’s Tap’s big ‘thing’ is the fact that it’s a game played with a single finger. On a technical level it works. You navigate menus in Morse code s...

To play a game simply by tapping on a box has to be seen as an accomplishment. We have already done tapping on a screen, waving a remote about, and the whole buttons thing is now decades old. However, simply tapping on a box is a rather clever, interes...

I’m not exactly sure why my friends David and Yi wound up playing the party game Let’s Tap at my apartment. When I asked them a couple of weeks ago if they were interested in playing a game in which you put the Wii remote on a box and tap the box with...

Let's Tap, Let's Tap. Choose Your Tapping Game! Let's Tap, from Yuji Naka's development team Prope, is a weird game. Billed as a game so simple a penguin could play it, the game's controls are extremely straightforward, requiring you only to place the...

There's no shortage of minigame collections on Wii, but Let's Tap stands out from the pack. Instead of waving their Wii Remote around in the air like an imbecile, the game allows players to participate in some quirky minigames that don't even require t...
Simple, responsive, and fun.
Perhaps a bit too simple.

The Nintendo Wii is a video game console that’s supposed to be fun for the whole family, breaking down barriers that may have intimidated non-gamers in the past. Sega is continuing with this trend with the release of Let’s Tap for the Wii. This is a w...

Although I don’t see myself playing Let’s Tap in the long run, I do have to hand it to Sega for giving us a new and innovative way to play. Every other Wii casual game got us to wave the Wii Remote around in some fashion, so it was interesting...

“So, I’m supposed to put my Wiimote on a box and bang on that to play Let’s Tap?” Yeah, that’s pretty much what I kept asking myself while I unwrapped Sega’s Let’s Tap for the Wii. By placing the Wii Remote on a box and tapping the surface, the Wiimote...

Fred Astaire would love this. And he'd be bloody good at it too. Leaping from the mind of one of the men responsible for Sonic the Hedgehog, Let's Tap is the first game to emerge from Yuji Naka's newly formed Prope studios, with old friends Sega handli...

Lets Taps collection of five mini-games is suitable for kids and some casual gamers, but this short title will have trouble entertaining an experienced gamer. The simple concept and spotty controls will quickly have the veteran gamer looking for som...

What’s it about? When Let’s Tap landed on my doorstep I really thought I was going to have to indulge myself in the art of tap dancing. “Please not another Wii game designed to make me get off my fat arse and do some exercise,” I thought. Thankfully, i...
A fantastic concept executed well in some areas and dreadfully in others. Lets Tap isnt bad for the price and should provide some entertaining evenings for the family, but I wouldnt expect those few evenings to turn into weeks of fun. Final Score -...

In Lets Tap, SEGA introduces gamers to the first game that can be played without even touching the controller itself. Using any household box, gamers are introduced to a gaming world where tapping is everything. But is it worth hunting down, or is it...

Lets Tap is a game that seems to take the novel uses of the Nintendo Wii and push them into near-satire. The game doesnt even come with the peripheral you need to play the game: you are asked to provide your own box to lay the Wiimote on top of, so y...

Let's Tap will polarise opinion. It's a game that for many will epitomise what's going wrong with the games industry today, but for others it'll be a shining example of fun gaming for the masses. Whatever your view, try explaining to someone that you'v...

Let's Tap is more of a concept than a game. It's not a toy like Line Rider or Noby Noby Boy, nor is it a peripheral you're able to reuse with other games. The cover art calls it a "new party experience," but that same cover shows three cardboard boxes...

Let's Tap is a very interesting title. While the game boasts an all-new control mechanism, at first glance you wouldn't think this would involve tapping your fingertips and palms on a box you had lying around the house. Even though this sounds bad on p...
