Zack is a new pirate on a quest to become the greatest pirate ever. In this puzzle adventure game he and his magical monkey sidekick search for treasure as they help the skeleton of the legendary pirate Barbaros. Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure is presented as a series of stages where the player directs Zack to perform a number of actions to let him collect the treasure. The player must deduce what actions will have the desired effect without triggering traps or attracting the attention of the enemies. Using most of the tools causes the game to switch to a first-person point of view, and the player is expected to hold and manipulate the Wii remote as if it were the item on the screen.

10/10 game. It's a shame its nearly impossible to play these days though.
Beautiful character designs and world, charming story as well, but this game proves positive why old school point and clicks opted to not include death as this one is pretty punishing
Although with the art style you would think this is an approachable game for kids, it's punishing difficulty states otherwise, had to shelf this one as a kid due to that fact and came back years later to clean up and even then it gets downright brutal at the end. it's environments and graphics just beg to be explored though and beg you to come back but I have to admit I felt immense relief after the credits rolled
Dated motion controls also hold it back a bit especially considering you have a very small window for certain actions later on
Overall, an awesome game that I wish could make a comeback with some tweaks to controls/difficulty but it's niche nature unfortunately shows why it didn't make much of a splash back in the day
7/10

nostalgia.. cute ip that shouldnt have been abandoned
A great and unique puzzle game that really makes you think at times without being incredibly cryptic, but is let down by the sometimes unresponsive and unintuitive motion controls
num mundo ideal os motions controls desse jogo funcionam bem
A love letter to classic point-and-click games. Funny, charming, and painfully difficult. It does have some dated and weak motion controls, though.
