GamePro writes: "Monster Lab takes place in the Uncanny Valley, where you take on the role of the newest member in the Mad Science Alliance. Playing the apprentice to three very crazy scientists, each mentor will teach you different evil science techniques -- the first being the zany Professor Fuseless. Your first mission is to leave the Gothic Castle, and go help the village by destroying the monster that is wreaking havoc on the poor villagers. Taking control of the monster is very easy, and allows you a wide array of actions. You can explore the land, hunt for monsters to fight, or go searching for "ingredients" to create your very own monster".
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."
